What type of recessed floor spotlights are best for my terrace?

What type of recessed floor spotlights are best for my terrace?

If you only want to emphasise the contours of your terrace, then it is best to choose ground spots with a low light output and/or diffuse light. Ground spots that are too bright can be blinding. The spotlights need only add highlights without giving off a strong beam of light.

If the ground spots need to do more than simply highlight the contours - for instance, if you want them to illuminate the exterior wall - then choose spotlights with a greater light output. Light is only visible when it shines on something; in this case, the beam falls on the wall.

Always pay attention to the protection class (against dust and water) - the IP value -when buying ground spots. Not all spotlights are suitable for exterior use.
 
As an alternative to recessed ground spots, waterproof LED strips are often used to illuminate the contours of a terrace. Ground spots provide points of light, while LED strips provide a nice, uniform line of light.
