Some common outdoor lighting fixtures used in Mission Revival houses are:
1. Lantern-style wall sconces: These fixtures often feature a metal frame with glass panels and a rustic finish, reminiscent of the traditional lanterns used during the Mission Revival era.
2. Hanging pendant lights: These fixtures are typically suspended from a porch or patio area. They often feature a metal or iron frame with glass panels and can have a simple or intricate design.
3. Flush mount ceiling lights: These fixtures are installed on the ceiling of a covered porch or entryway. They are usually smaller in size, with a metal or iron frame and glass panels.
4. Pathway lights: These fixtures are used to illuminate the walkways and garden paths around Mission Revival houses. They can be low-height lanterns mounted on posts or wall-mounted fixtures placed along the path.
5. Hanging lanterns: These fixtures are used to provide lighting and create a decorative focal point. They often feature a chain or rod that suspends the lantern from a porch or pergola.
6. Landscape spotlights: These fixtures are used to highlight specific architectural or landscape features, such as a decorative archway or a row of palm trees. They can be adjustable to direct the light precisely where needed.
7. Wall-mounted coach lights: These fixtures are inspired by the traditional coach lamps used in the past. They feature a metal or iron frame with a glass panel and are mounted on the walls of the house, usually beside the entryway.
8. Outdoor chandeliers: These fixtures add a touch of elegance and grandeur to outdoor spaces such as covered patios or dining areas. They often feature wrought iron elements and multiple candles or light bulbs.
When choosing outdoor lighting fixtures for a Mission Revival house, it is important to consider the architectural style and materials used in the construction to ensure that the lighting complements the overall design.
