Project — Landscape Lighting, Sarasota
The same beds you see by day, turned into an evening showpiece — uplit palms, lit paths, and a fountain that shines after dark, all on safe low-voltage runs.
Plan & Scope
Lighting was mapped before installation — fixture locations, beam angles, and the transformer location all drawn onto the plan, with wiring routes hidden inside the finished beds.
Step by Step
Low-voltage lighting is a planned install, not an afterthought. Here is the sequence we follow on every lighting job.
We walked the beds, palms, and fountain with the client to decide what deserves light, what stays moody, and what the view from the house should be.
Fixture locations, beam angles, and the transformer location were all drawn onto the plan before anything was buried — the map the whole install follows.
Wire routes were tucked inside the finished beds and along clean edges — no surface cable, no trip hazards, no visible runs anywhere in the landscape.
Path lights went in along the walking routes, uplights at the base of the specimen palms, and the fountain feature fixture set to make it the evening centerpiece.
Each uplight was aimed and shielded after dark, glare was checked from the patio and the house, and the whole system was put on a timer — set once, then forgotten.
We walked the finished lighting with the client after dark against the original plan, confirmed the timer schedule, and handed over a system that simply runs itself.
Before Sundown
Beds, palms, and fixtures in place — the lighting plan was designed around exactly what you see here.
After Dark
Lit paths, glowing palms, and a fountain as the evening centerpiece — the same garden, a second life after sundown.
Low-voltage, timer-based, and set-and-forget — the garden lights itself every evening.
Lighting Palette
Three fixture types, one color temperature, one timer — a simple system that reads like a designed scene every night.
Warm pools of light along walking routes — safe footing without flooding the yard.
Fixtures at the base of specimen palms, aimed to show off their shape after dark.
A dedicated fixture turns the fountain into the evening centerpiece of the garden.
One warm color temperature everywhere — no mismatched blue-white glare.
The Numbers
Your Yard Is Next
We walk every property with you first, then design the plan before a single shovel hits the sand. From a single flower bed to a full waterfront build-out.
