Some streets glittered with carefully choreographed roofline lighting that followed the eaves like a coastline glow. Others leaned into tree light displays that made f

The winter wind off the Burrard Inlet doesn't care about the calendar. It comes with rain, drizzle, and the occasional dry spell that makes installation feel possible, then returns with a vengeance. Vancouver houses, with their cedar siding, metal roofs, and generous eaves, present a particular mix of opportunities and challenges for holiday lighting.
