Lighting & sound
Layer ambient, path, and feature lighting with smart controls and outdoor audio.
Lighting, Fire & Landscaping
Keep the garden useful after sunset. Bring lighting, planting and gathering places into the plan from the beginning.
Design the evening as carefully as the day.
We consider circulation, planting conditions, lighting levels, and the relationship between the landscape and architecture. Fire features and electrical systems require product-specific clearances and professional coordination.
Exterior fixtures, outdoor audio, planting palettes, fire systems, and water-feature finishes.
Three things to work through.
Where does the light belong?
Begin with steps, paths and places to sit or prepare food. Then add selected landscape and architectural accents. Separate controls make it easier to vary the setting without lighting every area at once.
Where can people gather around fire?
Choose a location with room for seating and movement. The selected appliance’s installation instructions, fuel supply and required clearances determine where a fire feature can be placed.
How does planting change the space?
Planting can soften an edge, frame a view or bring privacy. Mature size, sun exposure, irrigation and maintenance access help shape a garden that works alongside the built elements.
Bring a little context.
You do not need a finished brief. These details help us understand where to begin.
- Daytime and evening photos of the space
- The routes, planting and seating you want to highlight
- Existing fixture locations and your maintenance preferences
