123 Terrain Outdoor Lighting is guided by a simple belief: Light has the power to transform not only spaces, but the way people feel within them. When designed with intention, landscape lighting becomes more than illumination — it becomes an experience, revealing beauty, creating calm, and reshaping the night. Founded by Ryan Shoop, Terrain emerged from a desire to approach outdoor lighting as an art form rather than a utility. With over two decades of experience, Ryan's influence shaped a studio rooted in restraint, craftsmanship, and a deep respect for architecture and landscape. At Terrain, light is never excessive or overpowering. Instead, it is carefully placed, allowing shadow, texture, and warmth to work together in quiet balance. Each project is approached as a composition, where light enhances form rather than competes with it. Materials, finishes, and color temperatures are selected with care, ensuring that the lighting feels timeless and natural, as though it has always belonged there. The result is an atmosphere that feels effortless, yet deeply intentional. At its core, Terrain Outdoor Lighting is about creating spaces that bring joy, comfort, and meaning into people's lives after dark. It is about giving the night a purpose — one that allows people to slow down, feel connected, and experience their homes in a way they never could during the day. Terrain does not simply light landscapes. It transforms them. Transform Your Terrain. Terrain Outdoor Lighting ABOVE AND FACING PAGE: Night is often the only time people truly arrive home. Daylight hours are consumed by work, travel, and obligation, leaving little opportunity to experience the places they have worked so hard to create. Thoughtful landscape lighting offers a second life to these spaces, one that unfolds slowly in the evening, from the moment when a homeowner turns into a beautifully illuminated driveway and feels a subtle shift in energy to savoring outdoor living environments after sunset. Lighting invites reflection, connection, and a sense of presence that daytime rarely affords. Photography by Mark Zimmerman TERRAIN OUTDOOR LIGHTING ST. AUGUSTINE, FL
