Cross Lighting

Cross lighting is achieved by lighting a subject from two sides, which both highlights and softens the subject.

Water Feature Lighting

Lighting in or near water enhances the texture and movement and can create reflections.

Moonlighting

Moonlighting is created with tree mounted lights. Shadows from the leaves create dappled light on the ground below.

Shadowing

An oversized shadow of the subject can be projected onto a wall by placing the light source in front of it.

Wash & Grazing Lighting

Lighting a wall from a distance provides even light coverage (wall washing). Lighting a wall from a source close by emphasises its texture (grazing).

Silhouetting

Silhouetting creates a dark outline by lighting the surface behind the subject.

Down Lighting

Down lighting pools light from above onto a surface or feature, it has safety, security and aesthetic applications.

Reflections

Reflections are created by lighting from a distance across still water.

Spread Lighting

Glare free typically circular pools of light created by low level stem mounted shielded lights, ideal for drives and low level planting.

Uplighting Trees

Uplighting from a ground level light source creates a dramatic effect.

Step Lighting

Step lighting is welcoming and has obvious safety benefits.

Deck Lighting

Deck lighting can be used to define the edges of the decking area.
