Elevate Every Experience with Stunning Illumination

As more homeowners extend their living spaces into their backyards, outdoor lighting has become central to the experience. When designed and installed correctly, it creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, providing a space to enjoy with friends and family long after the sun has set. 

The challenge with outdoor lighting is to ensure it creates the ideal illumination for the various activities that comprise outdoor living while also providing safe passage. It must bring outdoor areas to life, enhancing the beauty in a manner that aligns with your desired mood and aesthetics and elevating everything it touches, from architecture to water features, plants, pools, and patios. 

It's a lot to consider. Here, we’ll explore the essential ingredients and how to turn a backyard into an oasis after dark.

The Right Fixtures for the Environment

In Puerto Rico, one of the greatest challenges in adding lighting, audio, and other advanced technologies to outdoor areas is the corrosive effects of sea salt air. What was meant to last a decade may start to corrode after one or two years. And so, people begin to wonder, why bother? 

Coastal Source, a company founded in the Florida Keys, addressed these concerns by searching for a way to manufacture a product that was not affected by the corrosion of sea salt and humidity. The result was light fixtures made of solid brass and a patented Plug+Play cabling system that is waterproof, airtight, and reliable, providing connections that last long into the future.

Creating a Masterpiece with Light

Coastal Source fixtures enable our lighting designers to turn backyards into mesmerizing retreats, spaces for extravagant celebrations, and ideal settings for outdoor dining and poolside parties. By integrating your lighting system with an automated platform, we can program specific lighting scenes to illuminate in varying intensities and hues for all your outdoor activities. 

Whether dining, relaxing, or playing, the perfect light comes to life with one tap. The result is an exceptional, customized lighting experience unique to your home, lifestyle, and preferences.

Some of the varying fixtures we use to create your outdoor oasis include: 

• Niche Lights: These micro-sized, versatile light fixtures offer discrete illumination. They can highlight your home and landscape’s best features from an unseen source, whether casting a soft downlight or magically illuminating stairs. 

• Pathway Lights: While pathway lights are often considered a safety measure, in the hands of an experienced lighting designer, they can create intrigue, softly illuminating walkways while casting light toward focal points. Unlike many outdoor fixtures which are hidden from view, these stand out in their beauty and effectiveness. 

• Hanging Tree Lights: When positioned correctly, these fixtures create the sense of moonlight filtering through a tree’s branches. The enchanting effect casts soft, natural illumination.

• Underwater Lights: From water features to pools and ponds, these lights create a luminous glow in green, blue, or white.

• EVO: One of Coastal Source’s latest creations, EVO enables our lighting designers to create hundreds of different fixtures for total customization. From discreet, hidden fixtures to eye-catching, artistic displays, EVO helps us craft limitless, tailored outdoor scenes.

• Tiki Torches: For that tropical, retreat-like vibe, all-brass tiki torches around the pool or throughout the property add a touch of exotic charm.
