Luxury Outdoor Lighting & Sculpture Illumination
Situated in the hills of Sammamish, this expansive estate features a custom-designed pool, multiple outdoor living areas, and a curated art collection displayed throughout the landscape. The homeowners envisioned an outdoor environment that could be enjoyed year-round, day or night, while elevating the drama and beauty of both the architecture and the sculptures placed across the property.
Northwest Outdoor Lighting installed 95 precision-placed LED fixtures in a classic 2700K warm white tone, creating a cohesive nighttime experience that highlights the estate’s unique sculptural elements, layered gardens, pathways, and water features. The result is an illuminated outdoor gallery that balances elegance, safety, and functional usability.
The property now transitions seamlessly into nighttime, becoming a resort-style luminous environment that celebrates landscape and art with warmth and sophistication. The estate’s sculptures and gardens come alive after sunset, offering a dynamic visual experience that evolves with perspective and movement.

Before & After: Pool & Patio
Before lighting, the pool and patio area disappeared into darkness once the sun set, making it difficult and unsafe to navigate and preventing the outdoor space from being used in the evenings. The water surface and surrounding hardscape appeared flat and uninviting, and the visual connection between the entertainment space and the rest of the landscape was lost.
After installing a carefully layered lighting design, the pool has become the glowing centerpoint of the estate at night. Low-glare fixtures now illuminate walking surfaces, define the perimeter, and highlight architectural and landscape features surrounding the water. The pool area feels warm and inviting, reflecting the lighting across the water’s surface and extending usable living space long after dark — transitioning the patio into a resort-style nighttime destination.
Glass Garden Conservatory
A stunning glass garden conservatory sits at the heart of the property, surrounded by lush plantings and art sculptures. Our lighting approach focused on creating a soft, glowing presence that draws attention to the structure without overpowering the surrounding gardens. Strategic uplighting and interior accent lighting reveal the architectural framework and transparency of the glass while maintaining a warm, intimate atmosphere within. The conservatory now becomes a visual focal point from every angle of the estate — a magical destination whether enjoyed up close or admired from across the pool.
Illuminated Art Sculptures
Custom-angled fixtures highlight distinctive sculptural pieces positioned throughout the property. Each artwork is individually lit to enhance texture, shape, and nighttime visual interest while remaining consistent with the estate’s overall lighting aesthetic.
Resort-Style Pool & Water Feature Lighting
Low-glare fixtures illuminate the pool, surrounding patios, and nearby landscape features, creating an inviting centerpiece for gathering and entertainment.
