There are many fantastic reasons to make Edina, MN your home. While the proximity to Minneapolis certainly plays a part, there are many other factors. One of which is the charm that can be found amongst the vast variety of homes. From traditional and transitional to mid-century and Craftsman, Edina is anything but a cookie-cutter bedroom community. If the unique charm of your Edina home is what drew you in, try adding architectural lighting to illuminate your favorite features at night. With a combination of architectural facade lighting and landscape lighting, your home can become a nighttime curb appeal masterpiece.
Edina Architectural Lighting
A favorite technique for architectural lighting is the wall wash. Using a gorgeous LED uplight that is the perfect brilliancy, we highlight the exterior charms of your home. If your home has a covered front porch or stately columns, we’ll start by illuminating the height and beauty of those columns. Brick, stone veneer, cedar shake, HardiePlank, or vinyl siding are all a lovely site. With proper wall washing, we’ll highlight the colors, depths, and textures of your home’s exterior materials for interest and intrigue at night.
The second story of your Edina home is just as important as the first. We offer beautiful outdoor lighting technique such as eave-mounted lighting to highlight all of the glory of your upper floors. Second and third-floor dormers are a perfect feature to illuminate. But the pure height of your home is a lovely quality to highlight, so we’ll make sure the highest peak of your roofline doesn’t go unnoticed after nightfall.
Edina Landscape Lighting Completes the Effect
Homes do not stand on their own. Even the smallest lots offer some area to include in the outdoor lighting design. Without adding landscape lighting to your architectural lighting design, you could be creating a dead space that counteracts the beauty of your home’s façade.
At Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Minneapolis, we recommend Edina landscape lighting as part of the complete package for the best curb appeal and functional lighting results. We’ll start near your home to highlight flower beds and shrubbery. Then we’ll move out to make certain pathways leading to your front door have clear visibility for navigation. Depending on your driveway length and tree coverage, we may add some visibility for safety. Lastly, we’ll create points of light around the middle and perimeter of your front yard. Using carefully selected trees, landscape features, and shrubbery, we’ll highlight the expanse of your property to give the lighting design a finishing touch.
Are the favorite features of your Edina home going unnoticed after dark? It is time to illuminate the joys of your home with architectural lighting from Outdoor Lighting Perspective of Minneapolis. Call today (763) 317-0827 to schedule your complimentary nighttime demonstration.
