We are stuck between a rock and a hard place at the moment about which way to go for our facade lighting. LED downlights in the eaves or up/down lights on the front wall/s.
Anyone have any opinions or personal experiences with how each look and perform? Are there any pros and cons or is it just aesthetics only?
Drawing of our facade below - we were thinking 4 lights across the front (1 each end and 1 in front of the front columns).

Primarily aesthetics But secondary reasons being for practicality and I guess security but that hasn't been a motivator at all.
