How to "break" the lighting of garden landscape

Different directions of the garden have different requirements for lighting. In order to show the beautiful appearance of architecture, sculpture, flowers and trees, rocks and other phenomena in the garden, the lighting method should be changed according to the different scenery, and the intensity of the projected light should be changed according to the needs, so as to show its charm at night. The street lamps at both ends of the garden road should have uniform illumination and meet the safety requirements.

In order to make a small space look bigger, you can only illuminate some necessary and put others in the shadow; For outdoor large space, the treatment is just the opposite, which will make the large space have a sense of intimacy.

Outdoor lighting should use a dimmer with stable light source. In most garden lamps with incandescent lamps as the light source, the light will turn yellow after using the dimmer, and the irradiated objects, especially plants, will become sick and lose their original vitality.

It is also best to use color filters or color LEDs less, because the light they project will have a sense of distortion and will not be true to plants. Of course, the sky blue filter is an exception. It can eliminate the yellow tone in incandescent lamps and turn the light into pleasant blue and white. Small filters or other accessories can make all phenomena change endlessly, which needs constant attention in planning.

The brightness of lighting should be determined according to the needs of activities and ensuring safety. Too bright or too dark will bring discomfort to tourists, so the lighting scheme should pay special attention to glare. Hiding the lamp near flowers and trees can provide necessary lighting without causing glare.

To judge the lighting planning of lights, we must also consider the orientation of lamps, that is, the height, viewpoint and light distribution of lamps. The size and brightness of shadows formed during lighting should be coordinated with the environment and air, so as to facilitate the use of light and shadow to set off nature and create a certain scene and air. All these should be carefully inquired about the surrounding space during the day, calculated and integrated to determine the best lighting effect. Here are some common tree lighting phenomena.

Projection lighting of trees

1, floodlights are generally placed on the ground, and the placement method depends on the types and appearance of trees;

2. Suppose you want to illuminate a higher position on the tree, you can place a metal pole equipment lamp with the same height as the irradiation position next to the tree;

3. On the first branch of deciduous trees, a string of low-power incandescent bulbs or LED beads can be installed, which can achieve decorative effect;

4. For floodlights with necessary equipment on trees, the equipment rings that need to be tied to branches can be scheduled according to the growth law of plants;

5. The lighting of trees should be artistic.

Decorative lighting of sculptures and statues

1, the number and placement of lighting points depend on the type of lighting strategy;

2. Determine the direction of lamps and lanterns according to the direction of lighting policy and its surrounding environment:

A, lighting strategy isolated in the grass or vacant base, lamps and lanterns should be as flush as possible with the ground, in order to conform to the surrounding appearance;

B, lighting policy isolated in the grass or vacant base, assuming that it is located on the base, and the lamps are partially placed far away, so as to avoid the shadow at the bottom of the lighting policy due to the occlusion of the base;

C, located in the policy base, assuming close to pedestrians, lamps and lanterns should be fixed on the public lighting poles or the fa? ade of nearby buildings.

3. For statues, the irradiation direction is often selected according to the theme of the face and the front of the image to avoid the shadow on the face of the statue;

4. For some sculptures, the color of lighting should be in harmony with the color of sculpture materials.

Waterscape illumination

1, still water lake lighting: the phenomenon that lamps illuminate the shore can form a shadow on the water surface; Objects on the other side can be illuminated by floodlights immersed in water; For dynamic water surface, the projector can directly illuminate the water surface;

2. Fountain lighting: In case of water eruption, install floodlights behind the spout in the pool or below the falling point of the pool at the beginning, or install lights in both places. Red, blue and yellow are commonly used, followed by green;

3. Lighting of waterfalls: For water flow and waterfalls, lamps should be installed at the bottom where the water flow falls.
