Transform vertical surfaces into illuminated features with our professional wall wash lighting. These fixtures highlight retaining walls, stone surfaces, and architectural elements while providing functional illumination for your landscape.

What are Wall Lights?

Wall lights are landscape lighting fixtures designed to illuminate vertical surfaces such as retaining walls, stone facades, and architectural elements. These fixtures cast light horizontally across wall surfaces, highlighting textures, materials, and architectural details while providing functional illumination for outdoor spaces.

Wall wash lighting creates dramatic visual effects by emphasizing surface textures and materials. This technique is particularly effective for showcasing stonework, brick, stucco, and other textured materials that benefit from directional lighting that reveals their character and depth.

Wall Lighting Design Tips

Fixture Placement

Position wall lights at the base of walls or slightly above grade for optimal texture highlighting and upward light distribution.

Spacing Considerations

Space wall lights 6-8 feet apart for even illumination across wall surfaces. Adjust spacing based on wall height and desired intensity.

Beam Angle Selection

Choose appropriate beam angles to match wall height and desired coverage. Wider beams work for large surfaces, narrower beams for detailed features.

Color Temperature

Warm white light (2700K-3000K) creates inviting effects on stone and brick, while cool white (4000K) provides contemporary, dramatic effects.
