Columbia Labor Day Celebrations Are Better With Outdoor Lighting

August 26, 2014 By Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Columbia SC

Make sure your outdoor living areas are party ready this Labor Day.

Like Memorial Day marks the beginning of summer, Labor Day serves to remind us the summer season is at the close. Sure, we’ll have some more hot days, but schools have started back, and fall is practically here. It’s nice that the summer months are sandwiched between holidays that get to be enjoyed even by adults. So what do you have planned? A fun evening with the family and friends? There will probably be food and drinks, music, conversations, and memories made and shared. Of course you want to get the most out of your Labor Day holiday, so consider outdoor lighting. Not only will it liven up your gathering, it will also enable your party to keep going strong long after the sun has set.

Nights are already growing shorter, so you will have fewer hours to enjoy the outdoors using natural sunlight. Columbia outdoor lighting illuminates your outdoor living spaces, gardens, and landscape, so you can continue to unwind and celebrate hard work without being chased indoors by shadows. Not only will your Labor Day gathering be beautifully lit, so will all of your fall gatherings and your family nights outdoors. Columbia outdoor lighting provides the visibility you, your family, and your guests need to navigate your outdoor living spaces safely.

Outdoor lighting creates areas you want to spend time in after dark.

Columbia outdoor lighting also enhances your outdoor living. Rather than shying away from a cold, shadow-shrouded area, you and your guests will step into spaces that are warm and glowing with natural light. You’ll want to be there. The beautiful designs from Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Columbia accentuate the most lovely and unique features of your property. Each design we create is unique to the property for which it is designed. No two properties are alike, and their outdoor lighting should not be alike either. Bathing trees, flowerbeds, sitting areas, and fire pits, outdoor lights create beauty that keeps you lingering all night long.

So if you are ready for your Labor Day gathering to be the most memorable you’ve ever had, call Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Columbia today. You, your family, and your guests will relish time outdoors at your home this fall. Nighttime temperatures are mild. Don’t lose this opportunity to enjoy these nights. Contact us today.

Fly the American Flag Proudly This July 4th Here in Columbia

June 24, 2014 By Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Columbia SC

4th of July fireworks — The 4th of July is right around the corner!

The Fourth of July, the day we celebrate living in a country that gives us opportunity and freedom, is just a week and a half away. It’s the time we all remember what we have been given and what it has cost. There will be fireworks, food, and lots of red, white, and blue in our clothing and the décor. And flags will be flying – lots of them. Really, what better way is there to show your gratitude and pride in our country than by flying our flag proudly? If you are displaying the American Flag this July 4^th, remember that Flag Code requires that the flag only be flown from sunrise to sunset, unless it is “properly illuminated during the hours of darkness” (U.S. Flag Code). You can, of course, take down your flag at sunset, but if you want to show your patriotism all night, let Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Columbia help by providing beautiful lighting for your flag.

According to Flag Code, American flags flow after sundown must be illuminated.

If you already own an outdoor lighting system, adding a few lights for your flag is easy and probably cost less than you might think. By adding LED fixtures, you can have dramatic illumination that mixes seamlessly into a halogen system and doesn’t pull much voltage from your transformer. The LED fixtures will consume less energy over time, so your energy costs less month to month then if you install halogen.

Let Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Columbia highlight your flag this July 4th.

Chances are we will probably choose one or more spotlights or well lights to illuminate your flag and we will probably use the uplighting technique commonly used to light trees. If however, your flag is suspended on your porch, we have the option of exploring other techniques and fixtures. No matter how we illuminate your flag, we will ensure that it is visible, beautiful, and noticeable. If your flag is located near a wall, we will also be conscious of the shadows it can create. If appropriate to the wall and surroundings, we may even highlight the shadow using a technique known as shadowing. Of course, we will still be certain to illuminate your flag itself so your patriotism and respect for our flag clearly shows.

So as you get ready for the 4^th of July, don’t forget the most iconic symbol of the holiday – the American flag. Be sure it waves proudly and majestically all day and all night. Contact Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Columbia. We will ensure this treasured symbol stands out to remind your family and neighbors what the celebration is all about.
