Masters of Landscape Lighting
ABOVE AND FACING PAGE: At this modern, Napa Valley-inspired estate in Wayzata, Minnesota, the landscape and architecture become a warm,
cinematic scene after sunset. Soft tree uplighting defines the property's expansive setting, creating depth and guiding the eye toward the home's
welcoming façade. Along the entry, precise lighting highlights the natural textures of wood, stone, and siding, subtly emphasizing its craftsmanship
without overpowering it. The result is a nighttime environment that feels both elegantly refined and effortless, a blend of functional visibility and
atmospheric glow. Every fixture is purposefully placed, balancing serenity with sophistication and ensuring the home remains as inviting in the
evening hours as it is in daylight.
