My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Outdoor Upward Lighting

11 years ago

I need some advice... I'm trying to find the proper light fixtures to light my soffits. The thing is I don't want recessed lighting inside the soffits like most people would use. I'd like something that I can install lower down on the walls that would project light upward to light up the soffits.

My other requirement is that I want to be able to provide my own bulbs. I'm having fun with Philips' Hue LED bulbs and they are available only in BR30, A19, PAR16 and GU10 format. So I'd like some fixture that can take one these types.

So... What are my options? Any advice?
