Creating a Resort-Style Ambiance with Outdoor AV and Lighting

Transform Your Backyard into a Retreat-Like Oasis

It’s the season when many of us dream of tropical vacations with warm trade winds relaxing our bodies and minds. Others reminisce about their favorite resort, where golfing in the daytime, fine dining at night, and relaxing massages in between are an everyday affair. 

Unfortunately, summer can sometimes have other plans than what we have in mind. Busy schedules, workloads, and weekend activities can tie us up until days turn into weeks, and the summer has all but left us behind. 

But what if you could create a resort-style ambiance in your backyard? What if tree lights cast moonbeams and string lights resemble stars? What if the audio is so real and pure that it fills your soul with a sense of peace? Soon, you feel your shoulders relaxing as soon as you head out your back door.

But is it possible to create a resort-like atmosphere? The answer is a resounding yes. With today’s outdoor AV and lighting, your Northeast and Central Ohio home can become a serene retreat. Let’s discover how this strategy is affecting homes and homeowners in Lewis Center, OH.

A Sensory Experience

Music has a profound effect on humans. It influences our emotions, moods, and thoughts. Several studies show that it can trigger the release of various chemicals in the brain, including dopamine. This neurotransmitter is associated with feelings of contentment and well-being. 

Add those effects to the ones associated with being out in nature—reduced stress, improved moods, and lower blood pressure—and you have a recipe for relaxation. Add lighting that takes its cue from nature, and you have a stunning retreat that comes alive when night descends. 

The Power of Pure Audio

So, where does this type of audio come from, the kind that sounds so real you look around for the band? This immersive auditory sensation requires more than one lone Bluetooth speaker or a one-directional under-eaves speaker. At Sound & Vision, we partner with industry leaders in outdoor audio to provide that “more” experience.

These outdoor speakers deliver a dynamic environment, a perfectly balanced soundscape so real that it makes your outdoor areas an extension of your home. This music fills your property, bringing pure, high-fidelity sound from corner to corner. 

Strategically placed extreme-weatherproof landscape speakers blend into the foliage. These speakers deliver balanced, detailed sound coverage while producing music from an unseen source or one that resembles landscape lighting. Subwoofers are buried in the ground. Maximizing their contact with the earth yields an impactful low-frequency response that delivers depth and a harmonic backbone, creating a rich musical experience.

Premium in-wall and in-ceiling applications provide exceptional detail and are the perfect solution for patios. The result is strikingly clear audio that blankets your property without disturbing the neighbors. 

Light as an Added Dimension

The right lighting unveils your backyard in a whole new dimension when night descends. When aligned with nature, soft, warm lights blend into the landscape. Uplights resemble moonlight streaming through the trees, and path lights are like soft lanterns leading to the front door. Pool lights let you enjoy the serenity of nighttime swims. 

Add a fire pit, water features, and plush furniture, and your backyard is transformed. Some clients add today’s high-performance TVs to their patios or by their pools for relaxing outdoor movie nights. Others add Zen-like hideaways. 

At Sound & Vision, our home automation and audio-video experts provide exceptional sensory experiences that elevate your everyday lifestyle. To learn more about outdoor AV and lighting or to schedule a complimentary consultation, contact Sound & Vision today.
