Integrating Lighting in Landscape and Park Furniture Design

Written by The GX Outdoors Team | Nov 30, 2023 10:25:05 PM

Creating inviting public spaces holds significant importance in today’s urbanised world. Public spaces such as parks, play a vital role in our communities. They offer a sanctuary for relaxation, recreation, and social interaction, contributing to the overall wellbeing of the community.
At GX Outdoors (formerly Grillex), we understand the importance of enhancing these spaces. We also recognise the value of adding lighting into outdoor park furniture and landscape architecture to achieve this goal.

 

Safety and Comfort with Strategic Park Lighting

Creating safe and welcoming public spaces is essential for fostering community wellbeing. Lighting plays a pivotal role in achieving this objective. Well-designed park lighting adds an element of security and also sets the mood for a comfortable, pleasant environment.
The warm, inviting glow of carefully placed lights can transform an ordinary park into a charming haven. This transformation encourages people to frequent these spaces, fostering socialisation and engaging in outdoor activities.
Spending two hours per week outdoors significantly boosts physical and emotional wellbeing. However, with busy schedules, finding this time can be a challenge. Keeping parks open around the clock allows people to enjoy outdoor time, regardless of their work commitments. Learn about the benefits of opening parks at night.

 

Public Space Enhancement: Improving Community Experience

Enhancing public spaces goes beyond just providing basic amenities. It’s about creating an experience that resonates with the community. Discover the 10 principles for public space enhancement.
Incorporating park lighting into landscape architecture allows for the customisation of these spaces. Feature lighting can highlight unique aspects of a park, creating focal points that draw visitors in and ignite their imagination. Whether it is the play of light on a sculpture or the illumination of a picturesque pathway, these elements add depth and character to public spaces. Architects and councils can harness the power of lighting to evoke emotions and create memorable experiences for the community.

 

Modular Park Furniture: Merging Comfort, Functionality, and Aesthetics

GX Outdoors takes the concept of public space enhancement to the next level with our innovative approach to town and park furniture. Our HYVE modular furniture is designed not just for comfort and functionality but also with an eye on aesthetics and atmosphere. We understand that park furniture isn’t just about a place to sit – it’s about the entire ambiance of the space.
Our HYVE furniture incorporates lighting seamlessly into its design, providing an all-encompassing solution for architects and councils. The addition of lighting to our furniture further elevates the user experience. Imagine park bench seats softly lit under the moonlight or a sheltered picnic table bathed in a warm, inviting glow. These subtle touches can make all the difference in how people perceive and utilise public spaces.

 

Crafting Vibrant and Inclusive Public Spaces

Integrating lighting into landscape architecture and park furniture serves a dual purpose: enhancing aesthetics and creating inviting, vibrant public spaces. We are proud to offer HYVE modular furniture with integrated lighting, providing architects and councils with a versatile tool to enhance community wellbeing and promote creativity.
We can work together to create the world’s best outdoor spaces. Inviting and sustainable spaces, fully aligned with the needs of modern communities. Visit our website to find the perfect outdoor lighting solution for your project with our HYVE range and street furniture.
