Olson Weaver Landscape Lighting

Pathlights are the thread that weaves a landscape together after dark.

They connect the entry to the garden, the patio to the pool, the drive to the door. Without them, the composition risks feeling fragmented, points of light with no relationship to one another.

Thoughtful placement creates continuity. Continuity creates calm.

Landscape lighting sets the stage. Table lanterns set the mood.

One without the other feels incomplete in this stunning backyard. Together, they create a composition that feels complete. Not overlit. Not underlit. Simply right for the evening ahead.

Some of the most dramatic landscape lighting begins at ground level.

An uplight hidden in the grass draws the eye upward, through grass and leaves, creating depth and shadow where daylight offers only flatness. The fixture itself asks for no attention. The result asks for nothing more than a second glance.

A home's architecture does not end at sunset. It simply waits for a different kind of light.

Thoughtfully placed illumination reveals what daylight cannot: the texture of stone, the rhythm of windows, the quiet strength of a roofline. These elements exist whether the sun is present or not. Lighting simply makes them visible.

The result is a property that feels as composed by night as it does by day.

Eaves, soffits, and gutters offer ideal mounting locations for downlighting fixtures.

When paired with a wide or medium beam angle, they produce a soft, diffused glow that highlights architectural texture and gently illuminates the landscape directly below.

Why raw copper? Because it ages gracefully alongside your landscape.

Here, suspended in a white pergola archway, the pendant's unfinished surface provides warmth and texture that painted metal cannot replicate. Over time, it will darken and deepen, never losing its character, only adding to it.

Thoughtful design considers how a fixture looks at noon as much as how it performs at midnight.

The challenge: lighting a roof garden without visible fixtures.

The solution: a linear LED positioned low beneath the enclosure rail.

The result is a soft wash across amber grasses and a quiet nod to the true highlight, the succulents beyond the rail.

With high-output color-changing LEDs, your landscape adapts to the occasion.

Patriotic displays for summer celebrations. Festive warmth for the winter holidays. Or any color combination you can imagine for birthdays, gatherings, graduation, and seasonal moments in between.

Aged solid bronze. Complements any stonework, drawing out the brown tones and irregularities that make stone so interesting and timeless. One fixture can light 3-4 steps, reducing interruptions to the beauty of the stone.

The side yard is often the most forgotten space.

The grill was conveniently located just outside the kitchen door, but the nearby HVAC unit made outdoor entertaining unappealing.

A softly lit screen now conceals the HVAC eyesore, transforms it into a surprising focal point, and draws the party exactly where it belongs, around the grill.
