The Difference Between a Yard That Looks Good
and a Property That Stops People in Their Tracks
Gemmell Outdoor Lighting is a boutique outdoor lighting company serving Greater Nashville and Williamson County, Tennessee — including Franklin, Brentwood, Belle Meade, and Leipers Fork. If you have been looking for outdoor lighting in Nashville that is designed rather than installed off a truck, that is the whole of what we do. Most outdoor lighting companies treat the work as an add-on; Gemmell was built around it as a craft. Founded by Phil, a 15-year industry veteran, it custom-designs every system for the architecture and landscape of your specific property, and for the way your family actually lives outdoors. Call (615) 914-4411 for a free design walk.
Some houses disappear at sundown.
Yours won’t.
Lighting for Every Corner of Your Property
Six specialties. One team. All designed specifically for your home — never a package, never a template.
For the low-voltage work in the planting and at grade, see our landscape lighting page.
Permanent Outdoor Lighting
Architectural-grade fixtures installed once — professionally tuned for every season, every occasion, every year. No ladders. No storage. No compromise. The smartest upgrade a Williamson County home can make.
Architectural Lighting
Precision uplighting that turns your facade into a landmark. We study your home's lines, materials, and scale — then place every fixture to reveal what the daylight hides.
Pathway & Driveway Lighting
Guide your guests safely from the street to your door with elegant low-voltage fixtures that feel as considered as everything else about your home.
Garden & Landscape Lighting
Layered lighting that gives your trees, beds, and outdoor spaces depth and drama — the kind of composition that looks intentional because it is.
Hardscape Lighting
Patios, pergolas, retaining walls, and outdoor living spaces — lit so the architecture reads as beautifully at 10 pm as it does at 10 am.
Maintenance & Repair
We service what we install — and fix what others installed too. Seasonal check-ups, emergency repairs, transformer service, and full system overhauls.
Designed to Be Seen
Every system is custom-designed for a specific home and property. No two installs look alike — because no two homes are alike.
Beautiful Lighting in Three Steps
From first conversation to the moment you see your home lit for the first time.
Free Design Walk
Phil walks your property with you. He identifies every focal point — the mature tree that anchors the front yard, the stone wall that deserves to glow, the driveway approach that should feel like an arrival. A lighting plan is built around your home's specific architecture and the way you actually live outdoors. No charge, no obligation.
Professional Installation
The team handles everything: layout, low-voltage wiring, fixture placement, transformer setup, and nighttime aiming. Every beam angle is dialled in after dark so the final result is balanced, intentional, and exactly what was designed — not close to it.
Your Property, Transformed
The first night you see it, you'll understand why Phil became obsessed with this craft. Your home looks cleaner, safer, and more valuable — every single evening. And if anything ever needs attention, the same team that installed it comes back to fix it.
Every Installation Begins as a Drawing
Before a single fixture goes in the ground, the design walk becomes a drawing: fixture positions, beam directions, and zones, annotated against your property's actual architecture and plantings. You approve the plan and the written quote it carries before any work begins.
The plan by day. The result by night.
