The impulse of some design firms is to hide the old barbecue under a tarp, in the garage or in the shadows. Moon Glow Lightscapes took a different approach for this barbecue-happy family. They used lighting to bring the barbecue corner out of the shadows and into the main area of the deck.<br \/>\n\u201cShadows are an important part of a lighting design. We like shadows,\u201d says Mike, a member of the team that worked on the project. \u201cBut the problem occurs when people use shadows to hide something they don\u2019t want to see. When they do that, they end up drawing attention to what they\u2019re trying to hide.\u201d The family also loves their barbecue, and that was an important part of the design decision-making. \u201cThe family uses the barbecue all the time, and so we don\u2019t want to ignore something that\u2019s obviously so important to them.\u201d<br \/>\nAt the London house, we used a set of warm, discreet, carefully placed outdoor LED spotlights to light the corner and show off the geometries of the high-end barbecue. And by coordinating the lighting of the barbecue corner with the light design on the rest of the deck and the front of the house, the entire exterior of the house has a uniform neatness. The space feels clean and rich.<br \/>\nSince installing the lights, the homeowners say they are ecstatic with the way the lighting creates space on their deck. \u201cIt actually feels like we have a larger deck when we turn on all the lights,\u201d says the homeowner. \u201cFor some reason, having that dark spot where the barbecue is used to make the space seem claustrophobic. It\u2019s amazing what a little deck light can do.\u201d<br \/>\nFor garden lighting solutions that can transform your garden, <a href=\"\/contact-us\">contact us for a consultation today<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With carefully placed landscape lighting at this London, Ontario home, Moon Glow Lightscapes created a space where the barbecue is a part of the backyard, and not an appliance relegated to the corner.
