The Perfect Place to Entertain in Dallas

Working closely with landscaping partners, M. M. Moore, Signature Illumination Designs created a unique and sophisticated lighting solution to keep the party going all night long at this gorgeous Dallas home. The homeowners wanted to bring their dark yard into the light and set the stage for the perfect space to entertain. By installing a custom lighting plan in both the front and rear yard, we successfully elevated the home’s aesthetic and addressed all of the resident’s needs. 

In the front yard, we set out to create a welcoming entrance that leaves a lasting impression. We installed bright uplights at the base of the front stairs to provide proper illumination that gently guides guests to the home and draws attention to the symmetrical landscaping. 

Separating the stone driveway from the street is a line of trees warmly illuminated by uplights, providing both privacy and curb appeal. Along the front of the home, we installed additional uplights to draw attention to the unique texture of the home and ensure the entryway is well-lit. The front door is framed with matching sconces and ornamental shrubs that mirror the design of the walkway for a unified look that guides visitors into the home. 

The spacious backyard has plenty of room for hosting, but also a lot of potential for dark spots. That’s where we come in. To bring warmth to the backyard, we installed moonlighting in the trees. The lights cast stunning shadows across the lawn and pool, creating a cohesive atmosphere that welcomes you outdoors and makes every evening the perfect night for a late-night swim. 

Illuminating the edge of a property creates the illusion of an endless yard. Our team strategically spaced uplighting along the back fence to highlight the bordering trees and add depth to the yard. Every space of the backyard is perfectly illuminated, making it the perfect place to entertain at any hour. 

Continuing the lighting scheme into the backyard, we used a creative mix of moonlighting, downlighting and uplighting to create a picturesque backdrop perfect for entertaining. The soft uplights increase visibility and extend the hours of use while the downlighting near the pool ensures every evening swim is underneath the warm glow of the moon.
