This will be another bright spot. One of two lighting supports in preparation to highlight a collection of stonework stairs, a winter icicle-water-fall feature and also a fernery if one of our volunteers happens to be a pteridologist.

I have never designed a garden lighting scheme. I have included lights in gardens that I have designed but this has been the occasional feature or task light. Within three acres of garden, I have a feeling that we’ll need more than a few light bulbs around the place.

I’m trying to treat each garden feature as a piece of art – whether it is integrated sculpt, a free moving bush in a pot … or whether it is art or not. Like most of the architecture at HoBB Real, the lighting will also grow in a piecemeal manner but as the underground wiring follows the paths around it will need digging in way ahead of finishing the paths.

There’s some more lighting designs on other HoBBlogs around here but try these two:

HoBBlog Number 000039 : Living Pillars of Light
HoBBlog Number 000043 : We’ve got the Firs, where’s the ladder?
