Do you have a small patio? Large deck? Lush garden? Maybe a two-tiered space with outdoor kitchen? From simple to sophisticated, there’s one thing that can take any outdoor oasis to the next level: landscape lighting.
Highlight attractive features of your yard. Light pathways for evening strolls. Add ambiance to your outdoor seating. Your imagination is the limit. And it’s easier than you might think. With in-Lite outdoor landscape lighting, you can transform your surroundings in just five simple steps.

1. Sketch Out a Plan

Start by drawing a picture of your yard. (No artistic talent required!) In this rough sketch, include interesting elements of your setting, such as deck or patio, gazebo, pergola, tables, trees, and landscape areas. Be sure to include all elements you may want to illuminate. Consider walkways you may want to brighten and interesting foliage that you may want to spotlight. Don’t forget structures such as walls and fences that can add further ambiance when lit.

2. Choose Your Accents

Now that you have your yard laid out in front of you, choose what you would like to accent with outdoor landscape lighting. What elements would you like to make visible at night? Pathways, dark areas of the yard, statues, steps, water features, and unique landscaping are all potential pieces that could benefit from LED landscape lighting. Consider how you currently use the space, as well as how you’d like to make further use of the space, to determine which places to accent with outdoor landscape lighting. 

3. Select the Right Light

For each accent you’d like to highlight, determine the type of lighting necessary for that application. For example, to illuminate a tree, spot lights are ideal, and for winding trails through your garden, pathway lights are perfect. You can access the product advisor at in-lite.nl to learn more about which lights are best for each outdoor element.

4. Find Your Fixtures

Once you have determined which types of lighting you will use for the various elements of your landscape lighting plan, you’re almost done! Next, simply choose the fixtures you want for each accent. In-lite outdoor landscape lighting is available in a full range of fixtures to suit each setting. Select from a variety of colors, styles, and purposes. Many fixtures can be used for multiple applications.
