Our Outdoor Lighting Installation Process

1. Evening-Lighting Goals

We identify circulation routes, dark areas, focal points, entertaining spaces, and preferred visual effect.

2. Fixture and Placement Plan

Fixture types, beam direction, spacing, brightness, and color temperature are selected for a cohesive design.

3. Professional Installation

Wiring, fixtures, and controls are installed and positioned around the landscape and hardscape.

4. Nighttime Adjustment

The finished system is reviewed after dark when practical so aiming and balance can be refined.

Planned for Chicago-Area Conditions

Chicago landscapes change dramatically through the seasons. A well-planned system accounts for plant growth, snow, leaf cover, moisture, and the way stone and architecture appear at night.
