No. 8 Outdoor Lighting · Modern Farmhouse
Timber Pool Deck with Fire Bowls
At night, glowing underwater lights and twin concrete fire bowls provide pool lighting across a weathered timber deck fitted with brass step lights beside a white farmhouse.
Design notes
Modern farmhouse design keeps things honest: white board-and-batten or painted brick, black-framed windows and doors, standing-seam metal roofs, cedar posts and beams. Outside, that means gravel and bluestone rather than fancy paving, a big lawn, raised beds, a porch or pavilion with a fan, and simple furniture in black or natural wood. Lighting is gooseneck barn lights and warm string lights, never anything glossy.
What to look for
- Layers: one overhead, one at eye level, one low along the ground
- Whether you can see the fixture or only the light
- Colour temperature — everything warm, nothing blue
