Just as an artist uses certain colors to draw attention to certain parts of a painting, you can use your lighting to direct a visitor’s eyes toward certain parts of your home and garden. A well-placed spotlight or accent light can attract attention toward more subtle fixtures, such as small flowers, a design detail on the building, or even to a well-manicured lawn.
Good quality lighting not only enhances the best features of your home, it becomes a pleasing attraction in its own right. While you can make it as simple or as complex as you want, treat it like an opportunity to make your home even more perfect.
