The Combined Power of Lighting Design and Home Automation

Create a Home of Beauty, Intrigue, and Ease with Lutron Lighting

Good lighting design enables homeowners to perform the task at hand. Great lighting design considers the human experience underneath artificial and natural light. It combines the two forms to create a space of beauty and visual intrigue, setting the tone for various rooms, activities, and occasions. 

At AMT Integration, we partner with industry leaders to create homes that exceed our clients’ expectations in design and automation. In the world of lighting, Lutron is the brand to know. Let’s explore how, with Lutron, we’re transforming homes in Salt Lake City, UT.

The First Step in Design

The first step is understanding our client’s lifestyle. What kind of mood do they want to create? Open and airy, elegant and sophisticated, or warm and inviting? These require different fixtures, lighting elements, color temperatures, and hues. 

We’ll also take into account security and pathway lighting, as well as energy conservation. Convenience lighting is activated for evening trips to the kitchen or bathroom. 

Beautifully Designed

With Lutron’s Ketra lighting, you have every color in the visible light spectrum at your disposal. That translates to millions of colors available with one touch of a button, from whites, pastels, and saturated shades. 

Are you having guests over and want them to experience a wash of icy blue light throughout the living room and a warm candlelight glow in the dining area? Or, perhaps, it’s been a long day, and you simply want to relax in your spa surrounded by landscape and patio lights that look like fireflies and moonglow. 

We can also set the lights to transform throughout the day automatically. In 2017, Ketra developed the most advanced lighting system in the world. It precisely mimics the color and intensity of the sun, changing as daylight advances and darkness draws near. This dynamic shifting of light provides the full range of daylight—from the brilliant bright light of midday to the warm, soft glow of a setting sun. In the process, it synchronizes your circadian rhythm, supporting better rest and health. 

Almost anything is possible with the combined power of home automation and Lutron lighting. 

Lighting Control

Lutron’s lighting control also turns light switches into works of art, eliminating the “wall acne” created by numerous switches and dimmers. Instead, elegant in-wall keypads with soft LED backlights and touchscreens enable homeowners to control lighting with one tap of a button.

Integrating with Home Automation

When integrated with home automation, your home offers complete control of lighting, temperature, entertainment, pool and spa, security, and more. You watch as the lights transform around you throughout the day, your shades raise or lower based on the sun's position, and the temperature adjusts. 

When it’s time for bed, simply tap the “Good Night” button, and your smart home puts itself to sleep, dimming the lights, turning off the AV, locking the doors, and setting the ideal temperature.

It’s hard to envision how this type of lighting transforms homes until you experience it first-hand. To learn more about lighting automation or to schedule a complimentary consultation, contact All Metro Tech today.
