Set Accents - Lighting in the Garden

Not only for safety reasons should you think about the lighting of your garden. It is essential to properly light the entrance area of your home, and preferably your terrace as well, to prevent accidents and ensure the safety of your family and guests. Make sure that the spotlights and lamps used do not cast confusing shadows and illuminate the path and entrance area as completely as possible.

Your garden paths, the way to the trash cans, and even hard-to-see areas of the house will be much safer when illuminated by lights with motion sensors. This way, no shady figures can approach your house unnoticed by residents or neighbors.

So when redesigning your garden or making a few changes, it's important to also consider the installation of beautiful and accentuating lighting for aesthetic reasons.

This way, you can admire particularly striking plants on beautiful summer evenings from your terrace. Especially in winter, you can enjoy your garden even from your living room. A beautiful tree, an impressive perennial, pampas grass, or even your well-decorated garden seating area can enliven your view and attract admiring glances.

Of course, you're especially proud of your garden pond. Show it off! Let it shine in a new light with beautiful floating light objects and strategically placed spotlights. It can be particularly decorative to illuminate the plants along the shore, as well as a tree growing near the pond or watercourse. This way, the water surface still enjoys some light, but by focusing on another object, the pond appears more elegant and understated, enhancing its visual value.

It is best to consult a professional during the planning phase of your garden to discuss where the installation of wiring, switches, and light fixtures would be most sensible and possible. This ensures that a harmonious design is created while also ensuring functionality and ease of use.

The professional will ensure that the correct cables are used, that the wires are buried at least 60cm underground, and that they are properly labeled to prevent electrical accidents during garden work.
