Prosper-based · Serving five North Texas cities
Let the architecture catch the light.
A few well-chosen beams can reveal the depth of stone, the rhythm of columns and the entrance you want guests to notice. Landmark plans house uplighting as part of the complete front elevation.
For everyday evenings. Looking for Christmas lighting?
Choose the focal points before choosing the fixtures.
Start from the street, driveway and front door. A wall that looks important in daylight may not be the best evening focal point, while a recessed entry can disappear without its own layer of light. Identify the surfaces worth revealing, then keep enough shadow for the home to retain its shape.
- Brick and textured stone: consider placement that reveals texture without severe hot spots.
- Columns and vertical details: coordinate beam width with the proportions of the feature.
- Entries: balance the arrival with existing porch lights rather than competing with them.
Avoid bright windows and disconnected pools of light.
Fixture position affects both the surface being lit and the people looking out from inside. Aiming should consider bedroom windows, the approach from the driveway and neighboring properties. Equal spacing alone is not a design: different wall heights and finishes can call for different placement and emphasis.
Keep planting and irrigation in the plan.
A fixture placed neatly today can be hidden as shrubs grow. We consider bed edges, future plant size and access for landscape care when planning the installation. If planting or stone borders are changing, coordinate the lighting layout before those improvements close off useful routes.
What to send for an uplighting estimate.
Include a full front-elevation photo, a closer view of the entry and a photo after dusk showing existing porch and garage lights. Note any rooms where light intrusion is a concern and the view you care about most. The written scope should clarify fixtures, power, controls, installation access and the features being emphasized.
Useful before you call.
Is uplighting the same as permanent roofline lighting?
No. Uplighting directs light toward walls, columns or other vertical features, usually from the landscape. Permanent roofline products are installed along eaves or trim and can serve a different visual purpose. Landmark’s uplighting page does not promise a roofline product system.
Should every column and wall be lit?
Not necessarily. Selective emphasis can make the entrance and architectural details easier to read. Lighting every surface equally can flatten the elevation and increase glare.
Can this be paired with path lights?
Yes. Landmark considers architecture, walkways and planting together so one layer does not overpower another. A single coordinated scope can also identify priorities for a later phase.
One Prosper-based team. Five communities.
Landmark serves residential properties in Prosper, Celina, Frisco, McKinney and The Colony. Select your city for a useful starting point, then tell us about your own property.
