It was an absolute privilege to work with the Swope family to illuminate their historic property, dating back to the late 1800s. Our mission was to replace their existing system with a thoughtfully designed lighting plan that enhances both the beauty and functionality of their outdoor space.

This installation consists of 72 low-voltage LED fixtures. While only 10 fixtures were used to accentuate the home’s exterior symmetry, the remaining 62 fixtures were meticulously positioned throughout the property. Trees, pathways, bushes, and the gazebo were all carefully illuminated to create depth, balance, and a warm, inviting ambiance.

One of the most important aspects of this project was designing a well-lit path from the back door to the gazebo. To achieve this, we incorporated a combination of path lights and directionals, using uplighting to filter through trees with year-round foliage. The result is a beautifully illuminated walkway that blends safety with elegance, allowing the Swope family to fully enjoy their outdoor space long after sunset.

This project was a pleasure to design and execute, and we are grateful to have been entrusted with bringing this historic property to life at night.
