Professional Outdoor & Landscape Lighting Services

Custom outdoor lighting for homes, patios, walkways, gardens, pools, and architecture — designed for beauty, safety, and nighttime comfort.

Exterior lighting brings any outdoor space to life. Whether utilizing fixtures for security, landscape or dramatic effect, exterior lights can transform how you see and understand a building or pathway.

By understanding the play between light and dark, architects can use contrast and shadows to create beautiful and intriguing spaces.

Our number one goal when installing exterior lighting is working with the client to establish a design concept that the customer is satisfied with. You can both highlight a building’s architectural features and draw attention to plants and trees. From task lighting for safety to ambient string lights for the perfect outdoor party, whatever you may dream, we can design and build it to be an exciting and breathtaking new element of your home.

We offer many different types of lighting to complete your new backyard design. Our custom lighting services include:

Accent Lighting

Absolutely unmatched quality and design. Their final product is unlike any other. You may be able to price shop for pools, patios, etc, but if you want your project to look like a high end resort…something you’ve never even seen at a home…you call Native and let them do the rest. I could not be more blown away with how they turned our “ideas” into a resort-style oasis that we will cherish forever. 5 stars honestly isn’t enough.

Jacob and his team not only created the most magical backyard for us, but were a pleasure to work with every step of the way. His team was kind and respectful of our property while on site, they were efficient, thorough, and readily available for any and all questions we had! Can’t recommend them enough!
