Seasons Greetings Custom Holiday Design by Illuminating Design
Leveraging twenty years of exterior lighting know-how, Illuminating Design points to essential architectural and landscape approaches for seasonal installations.
It became clear to me early on just how much creative craft belongs in this field. Blending technical skill with artistic direction allows a home's architecture and natural surroundings to truly stand out.”— Bill FreyATLANTA, GA, UNITED STATES, August 14, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Professional outdoor lighting enhances a residence’s attractiveness by emphasizing its structural contours, which ordinary daytime illumination tends to conceal. To assist homeowners in crafting a spectacular arrangement, Atlanta-based Illuminating Design is disclosing expert design guidelines developed across two decades of custom residential and commercial assignments.
Company founder and President Bill Frey states that superior lighting begins with surveying the entire lot, concentrating on how each component interacts.
“It became clear to me early on just how much creative craft belongs in this field,” says Frey. “Blending technical skill with artistic direction allows a home's architecture and natural surroundings to truly stand out.”
When preparing holiday displays, Frey offers these essential design concepts for upgrading a home:
– Highlight Architectural Structure: Rooflines, columns, windows, and entryways constitute a home’s visual framework. Illuminating these architectural components anchors the design to the building.
– Establish a Focal Point: Directing attention to the main doorway provides a distinct, inviting center that leads the observer’s gaze.
– Integrate Surrounding Landscape: Applying light to trees, shrubs, and flower beds produces dimension and avoids a visual gap between a bright facade and a dark yard.
– Evaluate Street-Level Scale: Adjusting viewpoints from driver and pedestrian positions guarantees proper size, spacing, and positioning from key sightlines.
– Balance Brightness Levels: Combining soft and intense lights accentuates important features while giving the arrangement a neat, purposeful appearance.
– Maintain Cohesive Colors: Matching light tones and intervals across the residence, entry, and landscape ties all components into a coherent whole.
Frey established Illuminating Design in 2004 with the goal of fusing technical proficiency with bespoke creative design. Over the last two decades, the firm has developed major displays across metro Atlanta for notable locations including World of Coca-Cola, Zoo Atlanta, Emory University, Ponce City Market, Atlantic Station, and Cox Enterprises.
