Backyard Lighting

Designed for Charleston homes and Lowcountry properties

Backyard lighting should make outdoor spaces easier to use while keeping the mood warm and comfortable. The best layouts avoid harsh floodlights and use controlled pools of light.

Common backyard lighting zones include patios, fire pits, seating areas, outdoor kitchens, garden paths, fence lines, specimen trees, and walls or steps that define the space.

For Charleston homes, backyard lighting often works best as a layered low-voltage system with dimmable zones, warm LED fixtures, and careful placement around landscaping and outdoor furniture.
