A luxury condo at Mandalay Beach Club in Clearwater Beach, FL is one of the most sought-after properties in the area. Located directly on the beach, this stunning development sits right next to the Pier and is only 100 yards away from the new Clearwater Beach walk. During the design process, Garden Light LED was quickly inspired by the Mandalay’s scenery and beautiful sunsets when they selected the Amber color temperature output for the majority of fixtures being installed. One key factor that GLLED needed to consider was keeping the lights from hitting the current resident’s windows. To avoid this issue, Garden Light LED went with 12- and 25-degree optic lenses.
As for the fixtures for this project, GLLED went with a VA wattage of 5.4 and 10.5 using V2 directional Visionary Series Spotlight Fixtures. Due to the location of the resort, selecting Garden Light LED’s solid brass finish was a no-brainer because of the corrosion-free exterior, meaning the fixture can sustain the exposure to the hot Floridian climate and the Gulf of Mexico’s salty sea air throughout the upcoming years. Creating an outstanding lighting design that complements the architecture of the building and adds additional security for the homeowners was ideal for creating a three-dimensional lighting effect. Alongside other LED fixtures used in this project were Garden Light’s Owl Micro Max Series which assisted in helping to create a three-tiered lighting design. This design was applied throughout the pool area and clubhouse of the Mandalay, offering residents an attractive pathway throughout the facility, adding beauty to architecture and landscape all night.
In conclusion, a total of 202 fixtures were installed to finish phase one of the Mandalay project. As for additional accessories to help complete this project, a series of drum connectors (corrosion free), were a necessary choice to use during the installation.
Homeowners are thrilled with their new landscape lighting that enhances the resort’s atmosphere and provides security.
