I met some tips to help to obtain most of their covered outdoor area.

First, it is important to provide accent and task lighting, but at the same time Time will not illuminates the area also, so it seems a football field no, no! Do not turn the region as a Christmas tree, it seems cheese, you want to provide enough light, but do not overdo.

Another is tricks to conceal the source of light that gives your lighting installation look more professional, you want to see the light, but it must be illumination.
