A painter works with brushes and color. As a landscape lighting artist in Raleigh, Joe Yanulevich works with light. His paintbrush is the illumination of the landscape. Every tree, wall and path becomes part of the picture.
What does it mean to paint with light?
Painting with light means choosing what to show and what to leave in shadow. Joe lights one feature, lets the next area fall dark, then lights something again. As a result, a walk across your property feels like moving through scenes.
The colors on his palette are soft. Our signature look is warm 2700K light at low levels, with no glare. You see the glow, not the fixture.
How did a stage lighting career lead to landscape lighting?
Joe went from lighting the stars to lighting under the stars. He spent more than 35 years in concert and theatrical lighting before he began lighting landscapes. On stage, nothing is lit by accident. He brings that same discipline to every home.
His work has also earned Masters of Landscape Lighting recognition.
What do clients say about Joe’s landscape lighting?
One client described his approach this way:
“Joe works with what I would call a “soft palette” – he fills in spaces with light and with balance. He most definitely “paints a picture” The resultant effect is calming to the spirit and beautiful to the eye.” — a client
