DESIGN GUIDE
ALLOW US TO
ENLIGHTEN YOU We’d like to talk to you about architectural and landscape lighting. From your own observation, you may have noticed that outdoor lighting beautifully enhances the distinctive façades and colorful landscapes of some hotels and resorts — and simply throws light against others. The fact is all lodging venues can be sumptuously illuminated, bringing them to life after dusk. The difference lies in factors such as the expertise of lighting designers, how a system is installed and maintained, the quality of the fixtures and technology used, and more. Outdoor Lighting Perspectives wants you to understand the key variables involved in landscape lighting before you make an investment. As the world’s premier full-service landscape and architectural lighting company since 1995, we offer unsurpassed knowledge in our field, knowledge that can benefit you. So as you consider retro-fitting or installing new landscape lighting, keep the details on the following pages in mind.

ARTISTIC
LIGHTING DESIGN The joining of form and function starts with comprehensive coverage of the areas most important to you: the lodging entrance, stairways, pathways, outdoor landscapes and gardens, and the distinguishing architectural highlights of your property. Effect, not fixtures. Your lighting design should hide each light source, keeping the focus on the area illuminated. When fixtures must remain visible, they should be aesthetically delightful in shape as well as finish. Consistent brightness throughout. Expert use of the right equipment and materials assures that each of your lights will deliver peak illumination no matter how far away they are placed.
