What Is Landscape Lighting?
- Landscape lighting illuminates the beauty and enhances the safety of your Orange County property after dark. Strategically placed lights can highlight architectural features, accentuate trees and plants, and create a welcoming ambiance for outdoor living spaces. Path lighting, for example, not only guides your way but also adds a touch of elegance to walkways and driveways in your Anaheim Hills home. Up-lighting can showcase the unique textures of a palm tree in your Laguna Beach yard, while spotlights can draw attention to a stunning sculpture in your Newport Coast garden. Sanctuary Design & Build can design and install a custom landscape lighting system that transforms your Orange County property into a nighttime oasis.
