Create the Perfect Atmosphere with Today’s Lighting Design
The Latest Lighting Transforms a Room in an Instant
Lighting design plays a critical role in the beauty and functionality of a home. The right lighting creates a space of intrigue and sets the stage for fun social gatherings or relaxing at day’s end. It highlights your home’s best features and helps increase productivity and well-being while elevating the ordinary to the extraordinary.
To accomplish this, our designers and automation integrators at AMT Integration use multiple layers of light and today’s LED lighting and smart home automation. Let’s look at what this type of lighting can do for your home in Park City, UT.

Layered Lighting
Layered lighting can be seen everywhere in nature, in the shadows, moonlight, and the soft glow of a setting sun. In your home, this natural lighting design creates stunning spaces that align with a family’s lifestyle. For example, task lighting provides the perfect illumination for activities like working in the office, cooking, and reading.
Natural light is part of the ambient lighting, coming through skylights and windows. Additionally, this overall illumination comes from pendants, chandeliers, wall sconces, recessed fixtures, and cove or valence lighting.
Architectural or accent lighting intensifies your home’s beauty by highlighting fine furnishings, exquisite artwork, and the best architectural features. Downlighting, uplighting, lamps, wall lights, and LED tape or linear lighting can all be skillfully combined to illuminate these special features.
Vibrant Linear Lighting
In 2022, Control4, our home automation partner, came out with the Vibrant Linear Lighting system. This lighting adds a whole new level to your home’s lighting experience. The LED tape hides from view, offering diffuse light that enhances your home’s ambiance by adding a beautiful accent layer that can be set to preferred hues and intensities. It creates personalized lighting for any activity, time of day, or mood, from a peaceful setting to a lively, energizing atmosphere.
Add splashes of marigold, indigo, and Egyptian blue, or a soft shimmering silver. This lighting also offers natural light, providing bright, cool light during the day and transforming to a dim, warm glow as evening approaches. The LED tapes can also be applied outdoors, turning your backyard into a magical oasis.
These hidden lighting details often provide the "wow" factor in your home’s lighting design.
Elegant Control
Gone are the traditional wall switches, and in their place are elegant in-wall, custom-engraved keypads. Now, the lights come on with the touch of a single button. We program these keypads with different personalized buttons, such as the “Goodbye” button that turns off every light in your home while setting the outdoor lights to come on at dusk. The “Entertainment” button transforms your indoor and outdoor lights to their perfect shades for having fun with friends and family.
When integrated with home automation, you can control all your home’s systems from designated touchscreens, remotes, and voice commands. Tap the “Movie” button, and the lights turn off, the shades lower, and the audio and video turn on.
At AMT Integration, we pay attention to the details, creating homes of exquisite beauty that are effortless to manage. To learn more about creative lighting design or to schedule a complimentary consultation, contact AMT Integration today.
