Outdoor Lighting Fixture Guide
An interactive guide to path lights, uplights, wash lights, downlights, step lights and more.
Ten fixtures, ten different jobs.
The fixture determines the effect. A narrow-beam uplight looks nothing like a wide wash, and a path light looks nothing like a downlight. Knowing the difference helps you ask for what you want and understand what you’re getting.
Tap a fixture to see an animated beam, where it works best, how we hide it and one tip we’ve learned from putting thousands of them in the ground.

What is a beam angle?
It’s how wide the light spreads. Narrow beams (10 to 15 degrees) pick out a single feature; wide beams (60 degrees or more) wash a larger surface.
What’s the difference between a spot and a flood?
A spot is narrow and intense, a flood is wide and soft. Both have a place in a layered design.
