Last years' show featured more than 350 exhibitors in the areas of home building, remodeling, landscaping, outdoor lighting, and interior design. While at the show, please visit the NiteLites booth # 638 and allow Roger Blair and his staff show his spectacular collection of photos of houses and landscapes illuminated using a NiteLites outdoor lighting system. They will also discuss ways to increase the value of a property, and extend the living space available.

With homeowners trying to maximize their home's living and entertainment space, the home construction and renovation business is booming. Remodeling or expanding the existing structure is one option available to the homeowner, but not the only option. By assessing the existing property, and with some creativity, new living and entertaining spaces can be created without spending thousands of dollars.

Now is a good time to reflect on the past spring and summer with regard to the existing property. Were there areas that were used extensively? Were there areas that were seldom used, or not used at all? What can be done to make better use of these areas is both simple, and less expensive than a construction project.

To make the under used areas of a property more inviting, and to add to the property's overall ambience, an excellent option is architecture and landscape lighting. When lit, decks and patios are an extension of the indoor living area. Colors and shapes in a garden come to life. Statues, ponds, and gazebos become a focal point. The addition of lights maximizes the homeowner's living and entertainment space.

While this sounds simple enough, there is a wide variety of lighting fixtures and lighting techniques to consider. Fixtures can range from dim lights used to gently illuminate a pathway for safety reasons, to bright security lights to illuminate larger areas. Techniques can include lights aimed to highlight a trees branches or foliage, lights aimed downward to create a moonlight effect. If a pond or small waterfall is a part of the garden, underwater lights create an extraordinary effect. There are many other methods that can be used to accent a desired area, structure, or plant.

Among the many companies that offer architecture and landscape lighting, how does the homeowner make the right choice? High quality, professionally installed lighting systems often start at $2500.00 and may go much higher. NiteLites recommends researching to find a reliable company with national presence that will stand behind its warranty. Since trees, shrubs, and grasses grow, and wind and other elements can wreak havoc with lighting systems, NiteLites states that it is also important to find a company that offers a viable maintenance program to keep the lighting investment operational year round.
