PRIVATE GARDEN

Troy, NY

Type: High End Residential Size: Approx. 15,000 sq. ft.

The Owner wanted to create an ambiance in his backyard with specific focal points highlighted at night which would feel like the extension of indoors into outdoors at nighttime. The feel of moonlight was achieved with fixtures concealed in tall trees creating a safe and glare free environment. Highlighting the trees with in-ground up lights hidden in the lawn created focal points in the yard. On a windy day, movement of the trees creates a dramatic effect on the garden. Techniques such as shadowing and silhouetting elements helped create the right ambiance for the space. Exterior lighting is controlled with an astronomical timeclock, so the lighting is turned off at an appropriate time to encourage wildlife in the garden.
