Sunset Tone Outdoor Lighting Design
Situated in a quiet, wooded setting on Mercer Island, this contemporary estate blends modern architectural lines with a natural landscape of evergreens and layered plantings. The homeowners wanted a lighting design that would enhance nighttime usability and security while complementing the clean, minimalist architecture rather than competing with it.
Our team installed 82 integrated LED fixtures in a mixture of our signature Sunset Tone and 2700K, carefully positioned to draw attention to architectural elements, illuminate pathways and gathering areas, and highlight the surrounding natural environment. Sunset Tone’s warm, amber-based light temperature brings soft contrast against modern building materials and enhances the texture of stone, wood soffits, and lush greenery.
Developed specifically for Pacific Northwest wooded environments, our Sunset Tone lighting blends seamlessly with evergreen backdrops and wood elements. It enhances textures and creates a natural nighttime feel without blue or stark white tones.
The result is a sophisticated evening experience that elevates both curb appeal and outdoor living, creating a welcoming environment that extends seamlessly into nighttime hours.

Contemporary Architecture
Clean lines, stone columns, and wood soffits are highlighted with subtle, low-glare uplighting that adds dimensionality without visual harshness. Soft wall wash lighting illuminates the primary façade, allowing the home to glow naturally as evening settles in.
Tree & Garden Illumination
Selective uplighting emphasizes the height and structure of surrounding evergreens, creating vertical drama and anchoring the home within its wooded Mercer Island environment. Layered planting beds are softly highlighted to provide depth and nighttime interest.
Outdoor Living Spaces
Gathering areas around the home are gently illuminated to encourage evening use while preserving views of the landscape and sky.
