Cross Lighting
This technique allows sight of the feature from all angles. With this, you can be completely flexible on angle colour and brightness. Take a look at buying our garden spike lights to recreate this feature.
Silhouette Lighting
So far we've looked at lighting the feature, whether it be a tree or pathway and so on. Another alternative can be using lights to create silhouettes, positioning the light close and reflecting it on a wall.
Shadow Lighting
Using a light to create a shadow creates depth and gives a sense of three dimensions and space. This is an ideal technique for small gardens, reflecting the shadow of trees onto a light, plain wall.
Moon Lighting
Who said that your lights need to be on a wall or in the ground? Installing a light inside a tree will give the impression of moonlight, creating an great shadows and overall effect.
