Balancing Fun and Relaxation in Dallas

For these Dallas homeowners, creating an outdoor space that fused style and function was essential to making this their dream home. As parents, they wanted their space to be fun and kid-friendly while maintaining the sophisticated and relaxing tone they were looking for. Signature’s team of experts selected a combination of lighting techniques to create the perfect space for the kids to have fun, a calming oasis for their parents, and a unique place to host friends and events.

In the front yard, we wanted to create a welcoming facade that complemented the bright interior, beckoning guests in with an inviting glow. We installed uplights at the base of each tree, establishing gleaming points of interest throughout the yard that extends the warmth of the home outward. Golden downlights along the roof line illuminate the exterior, adding curb appeal and an extra layer of security to the home.

The downlights also ensure that the meticulous landscaping is always on display. This technique subtly illuminates the space and creates a walkway you can always see, making late-night arrivals easier and safer than ever.

We continued the line of downlights to the backyard, creating a high-end feel – perfect for an evening of relaxation after kids’ sports and work wraps up. The warmth of the interior and exterior lighting juxtaposes with the cool tones of the pool, cementing this yard’s resort-like ambiance and making the water look that much more appealing. 

Behind the pool, the homeowners built a putting green that we enhanced with path lights and custom puck lights, making any time the perfect time to tee off. Along the edges of the yard and in the green areas by the house, we added more uplights to continue to highlight the landscaping.
