How to choose your Christmas lighting style

A cohesive display starts with a feeling, not a shopping list.

Start with the architecture

Look at the roofline, entrance, windows, and landscape. Choose one focal point, then use supporting accents to carry the eye through the property.

Choose a consistent palette

Warm white is a classic starting point. If you prefer color, repeat a considered combination rather than introducing a different scheme at every feature.

Use your photo to decide

A daytime photograph helps us explore a balanced composition. Send it with a sentence about the feeling you want, and begin your free design.
