Richmond, Virginia, July 27, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Richmond, VA – July 25, 2017 – John Gillespie of Outdoor Lighting Perspectives Naples was recently presented with the 2017 AOLP Bronze Award for the Best Small Residential Lighting Project at the 2017 Association of Outdoor Lighting Professionals (AOLP) Conference.
For the third year in a row, John Gillespie of Outdoor Lighting Perspectives Naples, was awarded an AOLP Award for Best Residential (Small) Lighting project. He was presented with the Lighting Award of Merit – Best Small Residential Lighting in 2016 and 2015. Mr. Gillespie was honored to hear the news of receiving the award. “I am so humbled that my colleagues in the AOLP have chosen to highlight my work for the third year in a row,” stated Mr. Gillespie. “To receive the Bronze Award for the Best Small Residential Lighting Project is truly an honor.”
The landscape lighting project was for a Pelican Bay custom built estate home. The home’s lush, tropical landscape and stunning cobblestone driveway were truly inspiring to Mr. Gillespie. Using strategically placed up-lighting, Mr. Gillespie and the Outdoor Lighting Perspectives of Naples team were able to highlight the grandeur of two large oak trees on each side of the driveway. To create a softer glow on the stone drive, the team applied integrated LED down lighting, which beautifully contrasts the dramatic presence of the vegetation.
In all, the team installed 18 high-quality, integrated LED bronzed brass outdoor lights, illuminating potted palms and other low-lying plants. Thanks to the beautifully-crafted landscape lighting design, the charming Southern-California architecture and lush garden stun day or night.
