The clocks have leaped forward an hour and that means one thing…more daylight hours! But it also means enjoying dusk in the garden, a magical time where day gives way to night.
We’ve just added more outdoor wall lights and posts to our collection, including solar-powered lights that don’t cost the earth. Check out our go to Spring Outdoor Lighting Checklist below to get the most from your exterior spaces this year:
1. Solar-powered Outdoor Lights - BRAND NEW
Gone are the days when solar-powered lights meant fairy lights that offered very little in the way of illumination. The new LINTERNA range of portable, solar powered table lamps rely purely on power from the sun, enabling you to use these stylish table lamps for outdoor dining and dotted around the garden with no need for plugs or wires!
Whether you’re looking to add drama and light your garden path or create a gentle illumination as you enjoy the sunset on the patio; our solar-powered outdoor lights have integrated panels that soak up the sun rays during the day and are ready to come to life for hours at night.
2. Outdoor Wall Lights
Outdoor lights were once considered nothing more than a functional addition to the exterior of a building and that meant a functional, utilitarian design. The bulb was protected in a thick glass shade, with a bulky exterior cage. Frankly, they were chunky and boring…
But no more! The industrial outdoor wall light has the same look but with less chunkiness, making it the ideal choice if you want a stylish outdoor wall light but without the fuss.
The Fisherman style of wall light - a bulb encased in a glass cylindrical shade with a ‘flyer saucer’ rim - has also undergone a makeover, giving it a lithe look and feel. Perfect for when you want an outdoor light that sits well with the age and appeal of your home.
3. Modern LED ‘Wall Washing’ Lights
Enhance the curb appeal by using directional up and down ‘wall washing’ lights or sculptural LED feature fittings on the front, side and back elevations of your home. Browse our NEW outdoor lighting collection.
Finished in on-trend black, we have up and down lighting wall lights that are sleek in all shapes, from the curvaceous ring light to slender columns.
We also have polished stainless steel, perfect for the outdoors as they won't rust in the rain or salty sea air.
4. Porch Lanterns
Reminiscent of the lighthouse light, the lantern style is perfect for when you want to add a homely welcome to the porch or the patio. We have the traditional lantern shape, as well as the half lantern, as well as a superb Art Deco outdoor wall light, such as the Atlas.
