Lighting

See Photographic Library

Strategically placed lighting extends your enjoyment and use of your landscape well into the evening. Lighting is used to accomplish 3 basic objectives:   (1) Safety   (2) Landscape Accentuation  (3)   Architecture Accentuation

Safety

Walkways, paths and stairways illuminated by elegant lighting fixtures provide enhanced safety and security as you, your family and your guests move about your property after the sun goes down. The lighting that Tommy Pollina Landscape installs will work throughout all seasons and weather conditions.

Landscape Accentuation

Every landscape has elements that when illuminated they just pop with a visual excitement that draws you to that particular spot. Lighting can be used to highlight the naturally beautiful textures and lines of your trees and shrubs. With lighting placed in the right places you will create soft and alluring shadows as well as exhibit the textures and shapes of your plantings. For example lights can be placed below trees to create dramatic up lighting that exhibits the tree's canopy in a way that can only been seen and appreciated in the dark. Or you can also place the lighting in the trees beaming down which creates a soft moonlike down lighting.

Architecture Accentuation

Lighting can serve a double use by lighting up the landscape and the architecture. Each home has its own unique features: an elegant roof line, an elegant entry way and door, interesting window frames or even classy stones and bricks. No matter what architectural feature you would like to show off, there is a lighting solution available.
