Seeing The Light Just Right Takes Some Bright Ideation.
Outdoor lighting is a little like magic. It can create drama, cast a warm glow, shed a spotlight on landscaping, or highlight an area of interest. “Adding illumination to the exterior of a structure dramatically defines architectural volume, shape, and textural interest,” says Robert Sonneman, chief creative officer and founder of Sonneman—A Way of Light, in Larchmont, N.Y. “When we set out to study an approach to exterior lighting, we consider the architectural context of the object as well as its functional performance,” he says.
Lighting elevates a home’s curb appeal, draws attention to outdoor spaces, such as a garden or reflecting pool, and adds warmth to all that it shines on.
