The categories, sorted out
Ask ten Greenville homeowners what outdoor lighting means and the answers split. For some it is the house, for others the yard, and for some it is the corner nobody

The building itself
On the building, permanent architectural lighting traces the roof edge and the gables, is left in place year round, and changes color on demand. One install takes care of December and the other eleven months.
Lighting the yard
Below the roofline, the work is paths, garden beds, trees and steps. Out back, the patio needs its own light or nobody sits there. Security lighting covers the side yard, the back of the garage and the corners of the lot. Accent lighting picks out the details.
How to decide what you need
A house that has no shape at night needs light on the building. Trouble walking the property after dark points at path and step lighting. If the complaint is about hanging Christmas lights every year, a permanent system answers it. Most properties end up with two of the three.
Commercial outdoor lighting in the Upstate
On commercial property, the same work answers different questions. A lit facade makes the building findable at night. Patio lighting decides whether the outdoor seating gets used after six. Parking and walkway lighting comes down to safety, and the entrance is the first thing anybody sees.
What the first visit covers
The first visit is a look at the property, not a pitch on the kitchen table. Expect to be asked how you use the yard and the front of the house after dark. The way you use the property is what the design should follow.By the end you should be able to point at the plan and say why each piece is there. If you cannot, the design was not explained well enough.A few details get you a more useful first conversation. The house height, the roof line, the driveway, and whatever landscaping is out there. None of it has to be exact. It just gets the conversation to something useful faster.
Putting it together
It works better when one plan covers the house and the yard together, instead of pieces added a year apart.
