For 23 years I've been designing landscape lighting in Las Vegas — over 2,000 projects, multiple national AOLP awards, and credentials including LC (Lighting Certified by NCQLP), COLD (Certified Outdoor Lighting Designer), and a Nevada C2 electrical license. I work directly with homeowners on custom residential projects and partner with architects, interior designers, and general contractors on collaborative builds. Every project starts with design — not fixtures. That means understanding the property, the architecture, and how you'll move through the space after dark before a single light goes in the ground. I design with shadow as deliberately as light. The result is lighting that feels intentional, layered, and quiet rather than uniform and bright. ### Services Provided - Outdoor Lighting Installation - Landscape Lighting Installation - Electrical Installation - Lighting Design - Lighting Installation ### Areas Served - Las Vegas - North Las Vegas - Enterprise - Spring Valley - Paradise - Winchester - Summerlin - Summerlin South - Blue Diamond - The Lakes ### Typical Job Cost $7,500 - 75,000 $7,500 - 75,000 ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | Twilight Designs | | Address | Las Vegas, Nevada 89145, United States | | Phone | (702) 907-5444 | | Website | http://twilightdesigns.com | | Followers on Houzz | 17 | ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [Twilight Designs](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/landscape-contractors/twilight-designs-pfvwus-pf~1385575114) - **Website:** http://twilightdesigns.com - **Phone:** (702) 907-5444 ## Credentials **Certifications & Awards** - 2014 Association of Outdoor Lighting Professionals "Creative use in Lighting" award - 2013 Association of Outdoor Lighting Professionals "Creative use in Lighting" award - **Best of Houzz:** 2 awards (2016–2017), for Service. **Affiliations** - [National Association of Home Builders](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/schools-and-organizations/national-association-of-home-builders-pfvwus-pf~562065019) - [Association of Outdoor Lighting Professionals](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/professionals/association-of-outdoor-lighting-professionals-pfvwus-pf~1830187173) ## Reviews **Overall rating: 5.0 out of 5 — 6 reviews** ### All 6 reviews **★★★★★ — Irene Lamb, Aug. 2016** > I hired Dave and was so pleased with his professionalism, honesty and innovative ideas. I had several small projects but he treated them as important as large projects. I highly recommend! **★★★★★ — phauser24, May 2016** > Dave Bilik at twilight Designs runs a first class operation and I highly recommend him for any landscape lighting job. He is honest and treats his customers like a family member. My transformer had a short in one circuit and Dave first gave me free advise on the phone and then said he'd come out for a free estimate. I ended up having him do the work and he did a fabulous job. He showed up on time, got the work done quickly and accurately and suggested an upgrade that is working GREAT. I went to LED lights and they are awesome. They illuminate better and save energy. I now have much more capacity in my system if I ever want more lighting. When I make that decision, Dave will get the job! **★★★★★ — paulinevegas, Feb. 2016** > We are very happy with Dave's work ! He was very nice to work with , always on time , recommended us on what's best for us . He finished the job within the time he promised and our front yard and house is beautiful now !! Would definitely recommend him !!! > Pauline and Gavin **★★★★★ — laurenabela, Dec. 2015** > We have hired David for the past three years to install our Christmas lights around our house. His work is beautiful and he is professional, reliable, and knowledgeable in his trade. He has also gone out of his way to help us with other electrical issues we have had around our house as well. We have always been completely satisfied with his work and we look forward to more projects with him in the future. **★★★★★ — Mike Liss, Dec. 2015** > Twilight Designs did an amazing job on my landscape lighting system. It took me a year and a half to finally pull the trigger on outdoor lights. The owner came out and walked me through all his ideas, many of the things he suggested I never even considered. He had a ton of project pictures to help me visualize his ideas on my own property. Their installation was clean and professional. They core drilled some driveway lights in the front of my house, David insisted they would look great and I wouldn't be able to tell where they ran the wires. I was skeptical but he was right, the lights look great and illuminate the whole let side of my house and I can't even tell where the wiring was ran. Twilight Designs did a top notch job, we get a ton of compliments on our lighting and I'm happy to tell everyone who asks that Twilight Designs designed and installed it. **★★★★★ — nanamarnell, May 2015** > I hired David the owner of Twilight Designs, dbilik@landscapelighting.vegas. to do some landscape lighting for me about 6 + years ago I am so happy with his work he also lite up my house for me he enhanced all the wonderful point of my home all my friends and neighbors have told me how great my house looks it shows it off with the trees and house lite just the right way. David it very professional And knowledgeable about what lighting goes where what would be the best place to put it . He has always been nothing but polite and helpful on time and returns all calls. I would recommend David to everyone who asked. I have used him quite a few times and will continue to do so. ## Selected projects - [2014 Creative Use Award Winning Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/2014-creative-use-award-winning-project-pj-vj~1443617) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Pool Lighting](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pool-lighting-pj-vj~1082467) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Backyard Lighting](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/backyard-lighting-pj-vj~1082449) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 14 - [Tree Lighting](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tree-lighting-pj-vj~1082480) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [House Front Lighting](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/house-front-lighting-pj-vj~1082419) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 21 - [Moon Lighting](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/moon-lighting-pj-vj~1082417) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 [See all 6 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/landscape-contractors/twilight-designs-pfvwus-pf~1385575114) ## Ideabooks - [Pavilion](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/149788430/list/pavilion) — 7 ideas - [Pool](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/139608938/list/pool) — 9 ideas - [Courtyard](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/136826616/list/courtyard) — 5 ideas - [New House](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/123204815/list/new-house) — 191 ideas - [laundry room](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/53371693/list/laundry-room) — 17 ideas - [play house](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/52396501/list/play-house) — 2 ideas - [upstairs bathroom](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/49790969/list/upstairs-bathroom) — 1 idea [See all 7 ideabooks](https://www.houzz.com/ideabooks/users/lasvegaslandscapelighting) ## Community Q&A **Q: Landscape lighting** *(in Design Dilemma)* Ian unable to find a landscape company that i can send my house plans to look at and give me ideas and a bid on the project, Any Suggestions are Welcome A: If you're looking for lighting specifically you might want to research "landscape lighting" companies in your area. I think you'll find that a company that specializes in lighting may do a better job than most landscapers or even landscape architects. Of course that's not always the case. It sounds like you're in the design or building phase of your home at the moment? **Q: Using smartphone to control low voltage landscape lighting** *(in Lighting)* Are there any starter kits out there that have a smartphone enabled low-voltage transformer with multiple zones for controlling all backyard lighting from an app? ideally app would support at least 2 devices for shared control. I searched the google and couldn't find anything. I was thinking of using multiple transformers attached to a MyQ type device, but figured there might be something out there that I couldn't find. A: There's a number of options out there, none of them are perfect as far as the few I've sampled. You'll find most options will control the transformer on the 110v side meaning that multiple zones = multiple transformer. As mentioned above FX Luminaire is one option, back when I saw of demo of that particular product it was required that you use FX Luminaire fixtures throughout the project and the transformer was very pricey so I never tried it out. I think they've since improved it but I am nor familiar. There's a company out there called "Universal Lighting Systems" and they make something called a "U-sync ZoneControl", I've used this and it works well. It connects to the low voltage side and you can set up to 3 separate zones setting each as either automatic or manual. So you can set a light on your BBQ for example as manual controlled meaning everything else goes on and the BBQ "zone" must be turned on manually via remote control or remote wall switch. Runs $200 - $300 or so. Vista Lighting has another option called a vPro transformer which come with either 1 or 2 "zones". This is controlled via bluetooth on your smartphone and zones can be set separately as dusk - dawn, dusk - 1am, 8pm - 2am etc.. You can also dim each zone or have a zone go from 100% - 35% light output at 2am for example. The bluetooth has a limited range so you need to be relatively close to the transformer to make changes to the timer or to control it manually. It works with most LED fixture out there but you need to make sure fixtures are dimmable it you want to use that feature. Not sure the exact cost but plan on spending $200 - 300 more than you would for a professional grade transformer without the vPro control option. I have MyQ for my driveway gate, never used it for a transformer. Sounds like a viable option. Like I said from the beginning, there's a number of options... none of them perfect. Good Luck! Dave **Q: Need help with landscape lighting.** *(in Design Dilemma)* We have a glass door in the kitchen which leads to a garden patio. There is an outside wall mounted light fixture which holds one light bulb for lighting the patio. At night, with inside lights on, light gets reflected off the glass door and we cannot see our garden even if the outside light bulb is on. What is the best way to place landscape lighting so that we can have a view of our garden from inside at night? Our backyard neighbor has wall mounted flood lights which throw a direct glare on us, effectively blinding us and giving them a lighted yard at the same time. That is not the route I want to take as it is very inconsiderate. A: The problem with the light by your door is not just the reflection off the glass but the location of the light itself. Because that light is at eye level your eyes will naturally gravitate towards the brightness of that light source. When we light up homes I tell clients that in most situations what you want to see is the effect of the light but not the source of the light. As far as the light thats there now you have a few options, you can install a dimmer and lower the light level to a level more appropriate. You can make sure you have a frosted bulb instead of clear to diffuse the harshness of the bright light. Or, you can turn it off completely and rely on a different and more appropriate lighting fixture for the garden area. as for lighting up the garden area I would suggest low voltage lighting using a smaller fixture using a MR16 bulb. Try to find a location high enough that the fixture is pointing downward more that outward. Most MR16 fixtures have some sort of shroud that blocks any glare it may create from a neighbors house as long as the fixture is pointing downward enough. The ideal location would be a second story eave or a tall tree. By going with a low voltage option you can more easily run the wires in a cost effective way as you are not required to run the wiring in conduit. Now, this option will not provide as much light as your neighbor's flood light but I would argue that in most cases a lesser amount of light appears more natural and accents the area without being distracting. Using an LED MR16 allows you to choose a color of light with 2700k - 3000k creating a "warm white" color similar to halogen or incandescent and 5000k - 6000k creating a "cool white" color. You might want to try the cool white option as it creates a nice "moon lighting" type of effect when mounted in the way I've described. You can see some more examples or "down lighting" and "moon lighting" on my page. **Q: Need help with my landscape light choices** *(in Design Dilemma)* We just relandscaping and have all the wires run for landscape lighting. I am having trouble deciding where I should have up lights, area lights, path lights and well lights. Btw, are area and path lights the same thing? I have courtyard and a backyard. All comments are welcome and appreciated! A: If I were designing your system I would use MR16 spot lights on horizontal picket fence. Flood lights on the broad leaf palm trees two the left of the fence. I see a tree I would put a spot light on. A few path lights on the concrete walk ways. Path lights that have a flat "saucer" shaped top will give much better coverage that a pagoda style path light. I would also put a down light off the second story shining down on the patio area where a door is pictured on and inside corner of your home. Spend a little more on some professional grade fixtures, they're worth every penny over the common big box store grade fixtures. **Q: Landscape Lighting - Cool, Warm or Both for a Modern Backyard** *(in Design Dilemma)* I am in the process of updating my backyard and am adding all new landscape lighting. My house is a mid century modern, lots of straight angles. My backyard is being rebuilt to compliment the simple modern design. I am all about LED lighting, and am intrigued about cool white light. I've seen some photos and really like the daytime look, but my wife is all about the warm lighting. I was wondering if we should stick to one light output, warm vs cool or if mixing them together is accepted. I'm thinking warm lighting on tree's, bushes and plants while using cool white lighting around patio decking, fireplace seating area toekicks and outdoor kitchen. For the tree's, I'll use spot lights and for the patio, fireplace seating and outdoor kitchen using led tape lighting. Leaning towards Kichler 3600K temperature. Are there any do's or don't when mixing different light outputs? A: There's no concrete Answer when it comes to color temp but there's probably some general consensus. First of all When it comes to CRI (color rendering index) halogen light has close to a 100 rating. The sun is a 100 rating. So basically we see colors based on how the sun portrays them. When you alter those colors with artificial light it looks artificial. Warm white LEDs (2700-3000k) ALWAYS have a higher CRI than cool white LEDs and therefore look more natural. That said cool white LEDs have their place in designs, I use them for evergreens or pine trees and for down lights. I've attached a photo of a brick home I did in all cool white. These examples are the exception however, 95% of the time I light almost everything in 3000k warm white. Warm white should probably be your first choice for most of what you want to illuminate. **Q: Need help for preparing for landscape lighting in back yard.** *(in Design Dilemma)* I\`m building some retaining walls with allan block, planting trees along the fence and also building another tier out of allan blocks. Wondering how I can design or set up the wiring so it is easier and or cheaper when I place the lighting. Any tips on brands or websites for outdoor lighting. Thanks! A: Lite4 is correct. No need to run conduit, just run 12/2 cable and you'll be fine. If you can plan for where you want the fixtures it will help, leave a little slack in those areas for easier installation. It makes a big difference where you plan on installing the fixtures. Because the wall tapers outward under the cap many fixtures may not be able to illuminate all the way down the wall and you may end up with hot spots of light at the top so be careful of your fixture selection. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
