Masters of Landscape Lighting
TOP LEFT: At the entrance to this Lake Forest estate, light serves as both
guide and greeting. The homeowners wanted their long, wooded drive
to feel safe yet enchanting — a soft transition from public road to private
sanctuary. Uplighting reveals layers of mature trees, while warm accents
on the stone urns mark the gateway with quiet elegance. The result is a
timeless first impression that welcomes guests with grace and a sense of
arrival.
BOTTOM LEFT: For this Evanston outdoor living area, the goal was to create
a space that draws people in and keeps them there. The warm tones of the
fire feature, paired with subtle tree lighting and soft ambient glow, make the
setting feel cozy yet refined. Every evening here becomes an invitation to
gather, unwind, and enjoy the art of light meeting life.
FACING PAGE: Nestled beneath a canopy of tall trees, this Libertyville
sanctuary was designed to feel like an escape from the everyday. Soft,
balanced lighting highlights the natural beauty of wood, stone, and
greenery, guiding the eye without overpowering the calm. The result
is a tranquil retreat where the homeowners can relax, entertain, and
reconnect under the gentle glow of evening.
