Masters of Landscape Lighting
ABOVE: The reflection in the water doubles the effect,
introducing symmetry, calmness, and a cinematic stillness that
holds the moment in place.
FACING PAGE: Integral to the team's process is understanding the
mood, tone, and rhythm a space should carry — how light will
move across it, how people will engage with it, and how it should
make them feel.

The team at Peter Jackson Associates designs with intention, rhythm, and light
to craft outdoor spaces that evoke a distinct mood and sense of place. Every project begins
with atmosphere — how a space should feel — and unfolds through the careful layering of
form, material, and illumination.
Light is central to their process. They see it as the most expressive material in the landscape,
capable of revealing structure, enriching texture, and transforming the mood of a space long
after dusk. With thoughtful placement and restraint, they create nighttime environments that
feel cinematic, intimate, and deeply connected to their surroundings.
Their work lives at the intersection of landscape architecture and art direction — refined,
timeless, and deeply attuned to both the natural and emotional character of each site.
