Outdoor lighting in Los Angeles
Outdoor Lighting for Los Angeles homes and commercial properties, drawn on paper first and built by Silver Leaf Landscape.
How we approach outdoor lighting
A Los Angeles landscape lives half its life after sunset, which is exactly when most of them disappear. Lighting is how a garden earns its evenings: paths you can trust underfoot, trees that become sculpture, and a facade that reads as warmly at ten at night as it does at noon.
We design lighting into the plan rather than bolting it on after: fixtures placed for effect instead of glare, warm color temperatures that flatter planting and stone, and low-voltage systems zoned so the everyday setting sips power while the entertaining setting earns its keep.
Part of our complete scope. See all services, or explore landscape design, hardscape, outdoor living, pool construction, irrigation and drainage, planting and sod, artificial turf, landscape maintenance, and earthquake repair.

Outdoor Lighting questions
Yes. Lighting retrofits are some of the fastest transformations we do: we walk the property at dusk, design around what is already growing, and trench low-voltage lines with minimal disturbance to the planting.
It depends on the tree: broad canopies love soft uplighting from two or three angles, while mature trees can carry moonlighting, fixtures placed high in the canopy casting shadow patterns downward. We aim for glow, never glare, and warm color temperatures that keep greens rich.
Modern low-voltage LED systems draw a small fraction of what older halogen systems used, and zoning means the everyday scene runs only what it needs. We size the transformer honestly and set controls so the system works for your routine.
Outdoor Lighting we are asked about most in Beverly Hills, Brentwood, Encino, and across our service areas.
