Bringing the Outside to Life After Dark
For this large detached family home in West Sussex, the brief went beyond simply illuminating the driveway.
A&D Electrical delivered a comprehensive external electrical installation designed to make the grounds both practical and enjoyable after dark.
Using the in-lite outdoor lighting system, lighting was carefully incorporated throughout the driveway, pathways and landscaped garden, with uplighting used to highlight mature trees and key planting.
Alongside the lighting installation, A&D Electrical also provided new electrical supplies to the property's detached garage and hot tub.
Brief
Architectural Garden Lighting
The lighting was designed to complement the landscaping rather than overpower it.
A combination of low-level pathway and driveway lighting provides practical illumination and helps define routes around the property, while carefully positioned uplighters highlight mature trees and planting to create depth throughout the garden after dark.
The result is a layered lighting effect that transforms the character of the property in the evening while remaining subtle and appropriate for a family home.
The Work
A&D Electrical carried out the full external electrical installation, covering the garden lighting scheme alongside new power supplies around the property.
01
Garden Lighting
Installation of the in-lite outdoor lighting system throughout the landscaped grounds, creating a considered lighting scheme around the property.
02
Driveways & Pathways
Low-level lighting positioned around the driveway and pathways to improve visibility while complementing the landscaping.
03
Tree Uplighting
Carefully positioned uplighters used to highlight mature trees and planting, adding depth and atmosphere to the garden after dark.
04
External Power
New electrical supplies provided for the detached garage and hot tub as part of the wider external electrical works.
Powered by in-lite
The project uses the in-lite low-voltage outdoor lighting system, providing a flexible solution for integrating lighting throughout landscaped gardens and external spaces.
The 12V system allows different types of lighting to work together across the garden, making it particularly well suited to combining pathway, driveway and feature lighting within a single considered installation.

Power to the New Garage
The project also included taking a new electrical supply out to the property's detached garage.
This formed part of the wider external electrical infrastructure, ensuring the new building had the electrical provision required for everyday use.
Dedicated Hot Tub Power
A&D Electrical also provided the electrical supply required for the family's outdoor hot tub, integrating it into the wider external works around the property.
The result was a coordinated installation covering both the practical electrical requirements of the grounds and the lighting that brings the landscaping to life in the evening.
