Interior Design in London Goes Exterior! - Conservatory to Garden

The work of interior designers professionals doesn't stop at the back door - increasingly, interior design teams are expanding to offer specific garden design expertise. In this four-part collection of articles called "Interior Design Goes Exterior," I rely on my years of know-how gleaned from collaborating with London's finest interior design teams to explore the latest in garden design. This final article in the series discusses how to maximise the lighting impact in a London conservatory.


When your interior design consultancy illuminates the garden, your conservatory will suddenly become a much more welcoming place to sit and read the London evening paper or play board games after dark. Your gaze will be tugged through the window to the much brighter picturescape outside, and the formerly-black glass will suddenly lose its reflective sheen. The lighting within the conservatory should be a little more dimmed-down, in order to make the outdoor garden illumination seem that much stronger. And with London's ever-rising electricity prices, this might just save you some money as well! If your conservatory roof is fully glazed (and most are, in London), your interior design team may recommend a tightened-wire system - this tends to be better than conventional track-based feature lighting, because the tight-wire rail is almost invisible during the daytime. Within the conservatory, wall-washers and table uplighters can be used for local illumination. And when appropriately harmonised, lighting can be used by your interior design consultancy to much greater effect than simply blocking everything off with blinds or windowshades.


By night, London's outdoor spaces can showcase an entirely new feel when lit up to provide glisten and shimmer. Interior design professionals rely on the same basic guidelines as for inside your home, in order to build atmosphere and generate drama. By illuminating favourite garden features, Interior Designers in London can create a perfect mood for dining out on the patio, harmoniously complemented by muted general illumination that will guarantee that your garden is a beautiful place to luxuriate both during the daytime and after dusk. With today's fabulous lighting technologies, your interior design consultancy can be more flexible and more creative than ever to answer all your garden lighting dreams.


Well, that brings to an end this collection of articles called "Interior Design Goes Exterior!" Thank you so much for reading!
