Is there a difference between architectural lighting and holiday lights? It is a fair question what the word adds. The difference is between drawing around a house and lighting its parts. One treats the house as a shape. The other treats it as a building with peaks, recesses, columns and texture.None of that means you need to know the terms. The useful test is whether somebody can point at your building and tell you what the plan responds to. If the answer is specific to yo

What permanent outdoor lighting means The short version: LEDs installed into the architecture, up all year, run from an app. It replaces seasonal light strands with something built to stay.

Why Upstate homeowners keep asking about it Drive through any neighborhood around Greenville around the holidays and you will see it: clean lines of color along the roof edge and not a strand in sight.

It is the highest impact run on the building, measured by what it changes
