Landscape Lighting Design
A lighting plan based on the layout of your property, its architecture and landscaping.
Service area
Large oaks over a mixed housing stock
A 3.5-square-mile city southwest of Houston: shaded streets, roughly 6,000 homes, and a range that runs from mid-century ranch houses to new custom builds.
The properties
One street, two completely different properties
A traditional brick home with several mature trees sits beside newer construction in stone and stucco with large windows, a pool and an outdoor kitchen.
- Large oaks lining the streets
- Mid-century ranch homes
- Newer custom residences in stone and stucco
- Large glazing that reflects the yard at night
- Pools, patios and outdoor kitchens
- Neighbourhood commercial property
We do not try to fit both into the same package. The ranch house usually wants its trees and a low, warm wash across the brick; the new build wants tighter beams on fewer surfaces and something lit beyond the glass so the windows stop acting as mirrors.
From inside
The best view is often from the kitchen window
Without exterior light, a large window at night reflects the room back at you. With planting, a tree or a wall lit beyond it, the same window becomes a view. On Bellaire lots that single decision changes the house more than anything done to the front elevation.

Outdoor lighting is best understood by seeing what it does to a real property.

Other service areas
The same team works across Greater Houston. Each area has its own mix of architecture, planting and outdoor space — and its own reasons to light them differently.

We walk the property, talk through what you want to see after dark, and design the lighting around it.
