Lighting for Sarasota living
Sarasota homes are built for life outdoors: lanais and pool cages, palms and tropical gardens, docks on the bay and canals. After sunset, the right lighting keeps all of it in use, and makes your home look as good at night as it does in the afternoon sun.
We design and install custom outdoor lighting for homes across Sarasota, from established neighborhoods close to downtown to waterfront properties along the bay and the barrier islands.
What Sarasota homeowners ask us for
- Palm and landscape lighting: royal palms, sabal palms and live oaks lit as the centerpiece of the yard.
- Pool cage and lanai lighting: making the screened pool deck the best room of the house after dark.
- Dock and seawall lighting: safe, low-glare light for bayfront and canal homes.
- Architectural lighting: from mid-century modern homes to Mediterranean-style estates.
Coastal conditions, considered
Close to the Gulf and the bay, salt air, humidity and storms are part of life, and they are hard on outdoor lighting. We choose materials and connections with the coast in mind and recommend regular maintenance, especially for waterfront systems.
On and near the beaches, sea turtle nesting season brings local lighting rules. Near nesting beaches, outdoor lighting should stay low, shielded and aimed only where it’s needed.
