Let's explore ways we can use the latest landscape lighting techniques and technology to help you make the most of the outdoors throughout the year.

Celebrating Spring
Spring is a colorful season everywhere, and the Emerald Coast is no exception. With the latest LED landscape lighting, you can accentuate color from the blooming flowers and lush greenery. Tunable white light and color from WAC Colorscaping can enhance the nature that resurfaces every spring, making the night as colorful and vibrant as an ideal blue-sky day in Destin.
Spring is also the ideal time to consider updating your outdoor lighting. One of the newest innovations in outdoor lighting is LED tape lights. Once only used indoors under cabinets and to accent coved ceilings, new outdoor wet-rate tape lights can add a new dimension to your space. Consider setting off a pool or spa with tape lights or accentuating steps on a patio. Providing both illumination and color, these lights can add functional safety while adding a new aesthetic.
Sublime Summer Nights
Summer in the 30A area is all about maximizing the warm outdoor weather. As hot summer days transition to balmy evenings, it’s the perfect time of year to move the entertainment outdoors. It's also the ideal time to enjoy the water; whether it's an evening pool party or a warm soak in the spa, no heater is needed! Set the mood with landscape lighting that amplifies the tropical vibe, like uplights on palm trees. Path lights can ensure safety for you and your guests when navigating outside spaces. Do you have a boat dock? Ensure its visibility at night for safety and beauty with outdoor tape lights or tikis. Modern LED lights are also dimmable, so it's easy to create an atmosphere without bothering the neighbors across the canal.
Do you have a great sunset view? As the sun continues to set, you can set your color outdoor lights to mimic the red and yellow hues of the fading orb. With the power of color, you can prolong the soothing feeling you get from enjoying a great sunset. It's not just a feeling; there's real science behind it. Humans have been driven by Circadian rhythms based on the daily cycles of the sun, and the fading hues of a sunset promote relaxation and prepare the mind for a night of restful sleep.
Autumn’s Glow
The mild fall evenings in Destin call for an ambiance that matches the transition between the warm summer and cooler days. With WAC color lighting, we can create that autumn glow you might be missing from the northern climes that were once your home. The Emerald Coast may not be a spot for blazing fall color, but you can mimic that with landscape lighting. Go ahead, set those warm golden tones to enjoy a crisp late fall evening by the firepit or just sipping a cocktail on your patio. Remember the tape lights? If you opt for the color versions, transition from the vibrant blues and pinks of summer pool parties to the gold and orange colors of fall. The inviting nature of the right light will get you outside to enjoy the transitional fall season. Now you can turn on that spa heater for an enjoyable soak, and your warm lighting will create the soft glow that sets the tone.
Winter Spirit
While Destin has no snow, it can get cold enough to remind you of the winter holidays. Snow notwithstanding, what's a holiday season without festive lighting? Embrace the holiday cheer with color lighting that switches from warm whites to holiday themes. Whether you celebrate the season with blue and gold or red and green, you can set the atmosphere for holiday parties, family get-togethers, or to add holiday cheer. The lights can pull double duty, with the added brightness creating well-lit passages for your seasonal visitors. And if you happen to travel over the holidays like so many do, your holiday lighting adds an added dose of safety.
Few elements can match the transformative power of lighting in setting a mood, creating an atmosphere, or evoking an emotion. It works indoors as well as outdoors. And it's never been easier to have sophisticated, flexible lighting that is at once functional and aesthetically appealing, adding immense allure and value to your home.
