A personalized low-voltage lighting plan that considers your home’s architecture, mature plantings, focal points, and how you use the property after dark.
Evenly spaced fixtures illuminate walkways, driveways, and garden paths, helping guests navigate comfortably while giving the landscape a refined nighttime outline.
Low-voltage stair, railing, perimeter, and under-deck lighting improves visibility and defines the outdoor living areas you enjoy in the evening.
Ambient, task, and perimeter lighting for patios, pools, seating areas, and hardscapes makes outdoor entertaining more comfortable after sunset.
Focused illumination draws attention to specimen trees, stonework, columns, entryways, water features, and other architectural or landscape details.
Purposeful exterior lighting around entrances, garages, driveways, and property edges improves nighttime visibility without overpowering your home or landscape.
Landscape Lighting Designers Plus creates low-voltage systems that feel natural to your property rather than simply bright. Craig Collins personally designs each installation around architecture, mature trees, garden beds, pathways, and outdoor gathering areas. For Chevy Chase homes, that means respecting established landscapes and distinctive details with layered, glare-conscious illumination. The result is a safer, more welcoming exterior that extends outdoor enjoyment while adding polished curb appeal after dark.
See why homeowners choose owner-led, artful low-voltage lighting for their outdoor spaces.

Outdoor lighting costs vary with the number and type of fixtures, wire runs, transformer capacity, site access, and the complexity of the design. A small pathway or entry lighting project generally costs less than a layered system covering trees, gardens, patios, and architectural features. A professional consultation allows the designer to assess your property and provide a customized plan and pricing based on the intended effects.
