Intelligent Lighting Brings Beautiful Illumination & Wellness

While home automation touches every aspect of our lives, creating a luxurious lifestyle and unprecedented ease of living, the advancements in lighting have genuinely transformed our everyday experiences. A 2023 survey by Lutron found that 75% of today’s homeowners believe lighting is one of their home's most essential design elements.

Today’s intelligent lighting combines the latest LED technology with home automation. It supports wellness and healthy sleep schedules, creates a changing ambiance, and connects us to nature. These innovative lighting solutions have shifted our thinking from light as a way to see in the dark to light that transforms and shapes our experiences.

Intelligent Lighting Defined

At Advanced Home Audio, we partner with Lutron to bring our clients best-in-class combined lighting design and automation. In 2018, when they acquired Ketra, they changed the industry unimaginably. Gone are the stagnant, soft white lights and light switches in every room. In their place are infinite palettes of beautiful color, from pastels to saturated hues, custom-engraved keypads, touchscreens, and programmed settings.

We’ll program your lighting to create personalized aesthetics according to your activity or mood. When you want to relax at the end of a long day, tap the 'Relaxation' button, and your home's lighting transforms for the occasion. From lighting reminiscent of tropical beaches and azure seas to mountain peaks and emerald forests, today’s possibilities are limited only by your desires. 

These programmed settings prepare the stage for all your activities, from entertaining friends to dining with the family. One touch and your lighting’s intensity, color temperature, and vibrancy change. 

The Healing Power of Natural Light  

This lighting system also transforms throughout the day, reflecting the changing color of sunlight. From the early cool blue of dawn to the warm amber glow of sunset, your lighting brings the natural world indoors. 

And in the process, it aligns your body’s internal time clock, set for eons to changing sunlight. In harmony with natural light, your sleep-wake cycle adjusts, enabling you to experience greater energy during the day and relaxation in the evening.

The Controls

In addition to custom scenes and changing natural light, we can program specific settings based on the time of day. For instance, you may want certain lights to softly illuminate in the morning. When you walk into the home office, the lights brighten to the perfect setting for focused concentration. 

And in the evening, the landscape lights brighten, revealing your stunning outdoor oasis. With one touch, you can control one or every light, whether at home or across the world.

Today’s intelligent lighting is all about personalization. It requires engineering, programming, and design skills that dial in the perfect lighting for every activity and mood. Rich tiers of color and texture reveal your home at its best, enhancing artwork and textiles while bringing out true colors and design elements. The result is an exquisite harmony between electric and natural light and the perfect illumination at all times.
