Located in the heart of Fort Worth, the South Main Village is an electric part of town that continues to draw new friendly faces every year. Over the last decade, this formerly somnolent neighborhood has been transformed into a bustling town with a well-balanced mix of locally owned businesses, residential complexes, and now a multi-functional, linear park.
A community park serves as a go-to escape for residents to enjoy the outdoors. TBG led the planning and development efforts for this community park and called on Signature Illumination Designs for a unique lighting scheme to complement its vision. For this park to fulfill the needs of the town, we developed a comprehensive lighting plan to establish a welcoming and safe environment that is well illuminated.
Our professional design experts strategically installed lights throughout the park to elevate the community experience. For the covered arbors, we used warm pavilion lights to define the seating areas and establish ambiance. The glow from the pavilion lights softly illuminates the park, ensuring visibility and security well into the night.
For this project, we utilized our extensive experience and knowledge of innovative lighting technology to strengthen the overall design of the park. Serving as both a functional necessity and adding a decorative element, we installed recessed lights into the steps leading to the elevated walkway. We always strive for the most natural looking light and incorporate this subtle lighting technique to encourage patrons to experience the magical glow of the park.
When creating custom lighting plans, we always start with the key features we want to highlight. In this case, we wanted to illuminate and define the surrounding landscape. To do so, we used concealed ground-level lighting at the base of the ornamental trees and garden beds lining the park. These uplights draw attention to the variety of textures and illuminate the beauty of the landscape installed.
With the addition of this newly developed multifunctional park, residents and guests now have a space to gather, create memories and enjoy the outdoors. At a time when we are all staying at home, an outdoor park is just what community members need to expand their quarantine worlds. If you are a residential developer or oversee a commercial property and would like to explore lighting options for your park space or property, contact us for a consultation.
