MC Lighting & Design, founded by Mitch Murray and Chris Kluzek, is known for crafting immersive
outdoor lighting environments that redefine how spaces are experienced after dark. Their design philosophy
merges artistic vision with technical mastery, using light not only to illuminate but to reveal form, enrich
architecture, and bring the natural landscape to life in its most expressive state.
Mitch continues to elevate industry standards through his mentorship and involvement with the International
Landscape Lighting Institute (iLLi), bringing advanced design principles and global best practices into every
project. Together, Mitch and Chris pair cutting-edge lighting technology with thoughtful fixture placement,
guided by a deep understanding of how people move through and experience outdoor environments.
Their work is recognized for its balance, subtlety, and strong sense of visual storytelling. You can find MC
Lighting & Design's installations primarily throughout the state of Arizona, ranging from luxury residential
estates to expansive HOA communities and commercial properties. Across every project, Mitch and Chris
have built a reputation for craftsmanship, authenticity, and a passion for transforming nighttime spaces into
welcoming experiences that feel beautifully alive.

sculptural form while pathway accents guide
movement through the space. Balanced layers of
light create depth, warmth, and an inviting nighttime
gathering area.

the desert textures and architectural plant forms.
Subtle uplighting brings dimension to the agaves and
trees, creating a clean, refined, resort-style nighttime
experience.
