Outdoor lighting can completely transform a space—enhancing ambiance, improving safety, and highlighting your home’s best features. Whether you prefer subtle Aluminum path lights, dramatic uplighting for trees, or cozy string lights for entertaining, there are endless ways to create a stunning nighttime landscape.

Some popular setups include:

  • Moonlighting – Soft, downward-facing lights in trees for a natural glow
  • Path & Step Lighting – Low-voltage LED fixtures for safe navigation
  • Accent Lighting – Spotlights on architectural details or water features
  • String & Bistro Lights – Warm, festive lighting for patios and pergolas

What’s your go-to outdoor lighting style? Do you lean toward modern minimalism, rustic charm, or something in between? Share your favorite setups, tips, or even lighting fails—let’s inspire each other with creative ideas!
