The best decks and outdoor lighting are not really about the deck or the lights at all. They are about the moments those elements make possible. The morning when you take your coffee outside, and the sun hits the boards at just the right angle. The evening when the glow from the lighting draws everyone out of the kitchen and into the backyard. The Saturday afternoon when the space feels so natural, so effortless, that you forget it was ever just a flat patch of grass.

At Legacy Landscape, every deck and outdoor lighting project we design in Rochester Hills, MI, begins with a single question: how do you want to live out here?
