Creative Illumination


If you are thinking about ways to provide a distinctive effect to your landscape, adding lighting fixtures is an affordable and creative way. By adding a light system, you can tastefully accent and highlight selected features of your landscape and improve home security measures.

Soft lighting adds warmth and dimension to a landscape.
One way to incorporate landscape lighting is through up lighting, or projecting light upwards to focus on specific objects and plants in the landscape area. Up lighting accentuates trees, shrubs, and other plants that stand above the general landscaping plane.

Similarly, down lighting is another lighting technique that can create unique and dramatic effects. You can achieve a down lighting effect by mounting flood or spotlights above the landscape line. Down lighting, sometimes called moonlighting, creates a soft, subtle radiance throughout specific areas of your yard.

Another approach to enhancing landscape through the use of light is backlighting, or silhouette lighting. Placing light fixtures between your home’s facade and a particular object causes the object in front of the lighting to appear as a silhouette. You can also use backlighting to highlight walls, columns or doorways for further effect.

There are endless possibilities to incorporate lighting into your overall landscape design. Integrity Landscape Services has designed and installed lighting approaches throughout the Milwaukee area and surrounding counties. Enjoy unique results that fit your budget by integrating lighting effects to your landscape this season.

An Oasis of Tranquility in Your Own Backyard

You’ve likely admired them at resorts and on corporate campuses, but have you ever considered the possibility of having a water feature in your own backyard? Not only is it possible, but it's affordable and easy to maintain.

A natural water garden can create a feeling of serenity, or somewhat of a mini-escape from the hectic world around you. What’s even better is that the size and features of your outdoor oasis are easily adaptable to your taste and budget.
A water feature adds a sense of peacefulness to your landscape.

We are seeing the water feature trend more and more in Milwaukee, Waukesha and Racine Counties. Integrity Landscape Services has worked with clients throughout the area to develop custom, low maintenance ponds. Optional pond features, such as waterfalls, streams, and fish and aquatic plants are popular choices. Satisfied clients report that their backyard ponds have helped them to reconnect with nature and enjoy their home’s surroundings.

While maintaining a pond or water feature in your own backyard may seem overwhelming, the state-of-the-art pond systems we install are low maintenance. They are, actually, self-cleaning ecosystems outfitted with a non-toxic liner that is fish and plant-safe. All of the water features we design are constructed specifically to meet your budget and your unique specifications.
