Christmas Lighting Case Study in South Fayette

Landscape Lighting Case Study

Project Overview

This South Fayette project was unlike a typical holiday installation. We were contacted by one of the most recognized realtors in the Pittsburgh area, Bonnie Loya, with a request to help a family going through an incredibly difficult time.

The homeowner had been battling cancer and always dreamed of having her house fully decorated for Christmas. Bonnie hand-selected this family and asked us to go all out and truly make it special.

Our goal was simple: create the best-looking house in the neighborhood and give this family something unforgettable.

KDKA Channel 2 came out to film the entire process and conducted interviews during the installation, which made the project even more meaningful.

Design Direction

With four kids in the home, the color theme was important. Red and white became the foundation of the design to keep it classic, bold, and fun.

We layered multiple lighting elements to create depth and impact:

    • C9 bulbs outlining the complex roofline
    • Light Burst accents for added dimension
    • Candy cane mini lights throughout the display
    • Garland hand-wrapped with mini lights
    • A large red and white present decor feature

Nothing was subtle about this one. We used every technique in our playbook to make sure the house stood out from every angle.

Installation Challenges

The biggest obstacle was the roofline. The home had numerous peaks and complex angles, which made the installation highly technical and time-intensive.

Careful planning and disciplined installation were critical to maintain symmetry and clean lines across the entire structure. With a display of this size, even small inconsistencies can become noticeable.

The project also required extended installation time due to the sheer scale and detail involved.

The Result

By the time we finished, the home was impossible to miss. The red and white theme created a festive, high-impact look that delighted the kids and brought real energy to the neighborhood.

More importantly, it gave this family a bright moment during a very difficult season of life.

This South Fayette project reflects what holiday lighting can do when it goes beyond decoration. It becomes about community, impact, and showing up when it matters most.
