SHOWCASE YOUR HOME

with Landscape Lighting

Design and Landscape by Jason Sponzilli

Strategically placing landscape lighting throughout your property is an essential part of showcasing your home. Illuminating your exterior allows for neighbors and guests to share in the design and style you have created in your outdoor space. Whether it’s inserting lights by a green screen of Evergreens or highlighting one particularly beautiful tree in your yard, capturing a landscape lighting design that fits your home will seamlessly afford your family the benefits of space and safety.

By adding exterior lighting to your landscape design, you will increase the amount of useable space that you and your family can share. Imagine doubling the size of your home by utilizing your outdoor areas well into the evening hours! Introducing low-voltage, energy efficient lights to your backyard and patio can create a variety of settings throughout your landscape. Visualize a family-friendly patio with a wood burning stove, pizza oven, putting green, water feature and comfortable lounge seating. Or envision an oasis that spotlights your spectacular pool, pergola, fire pit, lush plantings and intimate spa. Appropriate lighting will even enable you and your family to use your sport court for practice or recreation long after the sun has gone down. When we introduce landscape lighting to your backyard, walkways or paths, side yards and driveway spaces we allow them to become versatile places in your home that will leave a lasting impression.

Properly positioned landscape lights not only highlight the features of a home they also introduce a higher level of safety for the people you care about most. Icy sidewalks and driveways are dangerous but can be remedied with proper lighting for the winter months. Pesky deer and rodents can be deterred by placing motion sensors on some of your landscape lighting to give the illusion that they may be spotted. Dark pathways in side and back yards can also be positioned with lighting that allows for practicality and comfort.

Creating a grand entrance that is accentuated by landscape lighting allows the beauty of your home to shine anytime. Be the envy of your neighborhood and illuminate the features your property has to offer.

Project:

Gracie Mews. 401 East 80th St. NYC

Project Description:
Installation of a 200 ft. green wall at the Gracie Mews entrance and private driveway.
Scope:
A steel support frame was installed to support living wall modules to plant low light evergreen plants. The wall had to be stepped down around the entrance sign and windows so the sign would be visible and views would not be blocked. Scissor lifts were required to complete the unique and complex installation.
Of Note:
The green wall at Gracie Mews creates a memorable and lasting impression at the front entrance of the building and offers the added value of contributing to air purification and aesthetics in the city.
