Outdoor Lighting Ideas for Safety and Style

As days get shorter in the Chicago area, proper outdoor lighting becomes essential. A well-lit property not only looks beautiful—it’s also safer and more functional. At C.O. Landscaping & Natural Stone, we integrate lighting into our outdoor features and hardscapes to create inviting, secure spaces you can enjoy after sunset.

Lighting That Enhances Design

Strategic lighting highlights the best features of your landscape while guiding movement around your property. Popular installations include:

  • Pathway Lights: Illuminate walkways and driveways to prevent tripping hazards.
  • Accent Lights: Highlight patios, trees, and architectural elements for nighttime appeal.
  • Deck and Step Lighting: Built-in illumination for stairs and stone steps improves safety and adds ambiance.
  • Fire and Ambient Lighting: Combine fixtures with stone firepits for a warm, cozy effect.
Energy-Efficient Options

We recommend low-voltage and solar lighting to reduce energy use while maintaining brightness and style. These systems are durable, eco-friendly, and ideal for Chicago’s changing weather.
