At Bosso Lighting of NY, we specialize in permanent outdoor lighting solutions that bring elegance, function, and safety to homes across Long Island. If you’re looking to enhance curb appeal or enjoy your outdoor spaces at night, the right lighting is key.
Understand Your Landscape’s Needs
Every property is different. Start by identifying which features you want to highlight: Is it a flower bed? A water feature? Your walkway or patio? By focusing your lighting design around these key areas, you can create focal points that add depth and interest.
Choose the Right Lighting Types
From path lights to uplights and wall washers, selecting the correct fixtures is essential. LED fixtures are energy-efficient and offer long-lasting brightness—perfect for year-round use in Long Island’s changing weather.
Consider Placement and Angles
One common mistake is placing lights too close to what you’re illuminating. A bit of distance helps create a subtle wash of light rather than a harsh spotlight. Experimenting with different angles also helps reduce glare while achieving a polished look.
Incorporate Layers
Great landscape lighting uses layers to add dimension. Combine ambient, task, and accent lighting to highlight various parts of your yard while keeping pathways safe and functional.
Go Permanent for Simplicity
When you know how to light up your landscape the right way, going with a permanent lighting system makes it even better. With Bosso Lighting’s app-controlled systems, you can customize colors, patterns, and schedules—all without rewiring or seasonal setup.
