台灣在花園&庭院設計這塊領域還不比歐美國家成熟，不但很難找到一些談庭院設計的部落格、教學或是論壇，就算要買給庭園或花園的氣氛產品，也沒有很多實體店面提供選擇。美國百貨業者HGTV在自己的網站上面有許多完整細膩的DIY教學和設計idea分享。今天分享的主題是如何使用庭院燈光裝飾你的庭園，不但強調燈光是製造浪漫氣氛非常重要的元素，還是凸顯庭院風格重點的好幫手。好的設計一定要有好的燈光搭配來彰顯使用的庭園配件和植栽，當然安全耐用用方便移動的產品更加是許多人挑選花園器材或配件時的優先選擇。想要有個超有氣氛的陽台、露台或是小花園，記得在計劃植栽的時候就要連燈光一起設計進去喔！
How to Illuminate Your Yard With Landscape Lighting
Create a stunning landscape that can be enjoyed during the day and night with inventive outdoor lighting solutions.
Define the Purpose for Landscape Lighting
Before you invest in any landscape lighting, ask yourself what your purposes are for wanting illumination in your backyard. Perhaps you want to set a soft, romantic mood during the evening hours. Maybe you have a bench or a shadowy garden corner you need to illuminate for security reasons. A path leading through the garden may require landscape lighting to mark its boundaries. You might want to highlight some features of your backyard like a water fountain or pond.
Make a Sketch of Your Yard
After you have defined your reasons for wanting to add landscape lighting, sketch your yard. Include in the sketch existing lights, buildings, benches, trees and shrubs, as well as the vegetation and decorations in the garden. Each of these items will reflect light or absorb it. Estimate the height of each of the objects, especially the foliage.
Decide Where Landscape Lighting Should Go
Match the reason for lighting to specific locations in your backyard. You may want to illuminate a bench along the path with a pole-type lamp placed behind it. A soft mood can be achieved by hiding landscape lighting under shrubs. A path may require a series of short stake lights along its border on one side or on both sides (Image 1). A water fountain can be enhanced with a spotlight (Image 2), and a pond can have soft lighting around its perimeter.
在這裡也要跟大家推薦【滴答克的夜光精靈LED蠟燭燈】，雖然是真蠟表面，但是是非常適合庭院/戶外的照明氣氛燈，因為它不但像真的蠟燭一樣可以會明滅閃爍，又不怕戶外的風將它吹熄（LED蠟燭無需點火，是使用LED燈芯模擬蠟燭燭芯的明滅閃爍），而且在戶外也不用擔心易燃或其他危險，是增加浪漫氣氛的景觀燈和線燈之外又一個很棒的選擇。
