What is Landscape Lighting Design?
A plan for the selective illumination of landscape and architectural features to achieve goals of security, safety, beauty, nighttime usability and energy efficiency.
Landscape lighting design is a profession that has grown out of the disparate fields of lighting design and landscape design. The marriage of these two disciplines finds landscapers seeking out lighting design knowledge and lighting designers seeking a better understanding of landscape elements. The child of this marriage is a new breed of designer skilled in the illumination of a living and changing landscape - a designer who plants trees as well as luminaires.
