How To Choose The Correct Pathlight
Due to the wide variety of stunning fixtures available, it can be difficult to choose the best one for your client’s home or office. Right path lighting is essential. Most of us see Garden Pathlights every day.
You can find a wide range of outdoor lighting solutions, from path lighting to spotlights for garden features. In addition to aluminum, brass, and copper, our best path lights are available in a variety of shapes sizes and finishes.
You can use modern path lights with an adjustable head to vary the angle of the light throw if you need to light up a large area like a driveway for your client.
Identify the Appropriate Purpose
A tree, a wall, or a garden feature can be beautifully illuminated with a directional uplighting fixture.
These lights shine down on a route, illuminating it with both atmosphere and targeted illumination such as garden path lights to showcase a walkway.
These lights have more decorative shades or horizontal beams of light, making them a versatile alternative for creating the right atmosphere in a garden feature or sitting area.
Determine the Number of Lights Required
The spacing between general path or ambient lights should be 6 to 8 feet. Use 1-3 lights to draw attention to a particular element.
It's all about scope and scale.
Your first consideration when choosing garden path lights should be the breadth and magnitude of the residence and route that will be illuminated. The fixture's height and size should be proportional to its surroundings.
The taller the path light, the wider the beam it can cast, the better it would be for illuminating a long curving route that wraps around a house from the front yard to the back yard.
In addition, take into account a design that is appropriate for the location. Pathlights can range from a traditional light like our Tulay BH 18, to a more modern look like our Aspen Pathlight. All that matters is determining the scope, scale, style and location of the fixture.
Aesthetics
As a landscaper/ GC, it is vital to be mindful of the aesthetic and the overall appeal of the path lights that you are planning on installing for your client.
It's more visually appealing to have lights on both sides of a path. Instead of stacking path lights next to each other in a straight line, spread them throughout your client's site in an attractive manner.
