Lighting Type
Mounted high in trees or on soffits, down lights cast a natural moonlight effect across your landscape — illuminating paths, driveways, and outdoor living areas with a soft, organic glow that mimics the look of a full moon filtering through the canopy.
Down lighting — often called moon lighting — involves mounting fixtures high up in trees or on building soffits and aiming them downward. The result is a soft, dappled light that falls naturally across the ground below, creating beautiful shadow patterns through branches and leaves.
Unlike uplighting which emphasizes the vertical drama of a tree or facade, down lighting creates ambient illumination at ground level — perfect for driveways, patios, garden beds, and outdoor seating areas where you want functional light that still feels natural and organic.
