ARCHITECTURAL LIGHTING

How are Proper Architectural Lighting Effects Achieved?

Architectural lighting is a specific application to accent an entire face of a building or structure or at very least to use light to highlight the prominent features of a building or structure. Prominent features of this type of lighting generally focus on columns, gables, dormer windows, chimneys, turrets, or cupolas, but can also be as simple as accenting the corners of a building to give the viewer a nighttime sense of the building’s dimensions. Architectural lighting can also be used to reveal a building’s specific material of brick, stone, stucco, wood, steel or glass.

Architectural lighting is achieved by careful placement of the appropriate LED fixtures on or near the building or structure to allow for maximum coverage and minimum glare. As in other lighting applications, proper color temperature, light intensity and beam angle are critical in achieving a perfectly balanced composition.

Architectural lighting can also be used to make a building or structure stand out from its surrounding landscape or urban environment. This can be achieved through the use of color-changing LED fixtures or special application products that “carve out” a building’s presence within a defined space.

“The design & install team at Twilight Solutions spent several hours (gratis) with my wife and I to figure out how we wanted to use our outdoor space and then designed a lighting system that perfectly served our needs. Not too much, not too little. As a contractor in the Lake Geneva area i would certainly recommend Twilight Solutions to anyone looking for a superior outdoor lighting system and great customer service.”

“Twilight Solutions was introduced to us through our home builder, and turned out to be exactly what we look for in a contractor.

Communication was always timely and clear and both our time frame and our budget were met without overrun. Their first class workmanship really highlights and enhances the beauty of our home at night. We can’t wait to start phase two!”

Rick & Anne Hutter

“The design/install team from Twilight Solutions gave us a variety of visual options that helped us to decide on a lighting system that suited us best. After early discussions with their lighting experts, Twilight Solutions installed (at their own expense and risk) the lighting scheme reflecting their understanding of the lighting objectives we sought. They even used the actual fixtures we had chosen. Their conscientious work and attention to detail has really brought our property to life!”

Andy Laughlin & Linda Learn

“I can’t say enough about our new outdoor lighting. My daughter’s wedding was fast approaching and we needed to make sure all of our walkways, stairs and shoreline were well lit for safety. Jon is a master at lighting. He knew exactly where to place the fixtures to shed just enough light and it is so soft and subtle. He installed some special lighting just for the event and the permanent fixtures will light up our lives for years to come. Jon called me back promptly, came by the next day and sent me an estimate soon thereafter and was able to start the project within a week. I would highly recommend Twilight Solutions.”
