Smart lighting systems make it easy for you to control the lighting in your space
The importance of lighting in interior design cannot be understated. It changes the way we perceive the world and can change the ambiance or feeling of a space. When working on interior design projects, it is vital to consider the placement of lighting fixtures, color temperature, and intensity of lighting. Lutron makes it easy for you to customize the light in your space. Read on to learn why interior designers should partner with a Lutron dealer on their Los Angeles, CA projects.

Types of Lighting
Ambient lighting and “task lighting,” or increased light for specific activities, are the most common way lighting fixtures are used. Still, lighting design has evolved to include so many other reasons for lighting beyond working after dark. This means that having only an on/off switch will put you at a disadvantage when trying to attract potential clients. Homeowners want lighting that illuminates key pieces of their architecture, creates a certain mood and more.
How We Can Help
In traditional settings, designers would install four lights near each corner of a room with a fan in the middle. Though this works for ambient lighting, it does little to highlight features of the room, create the perfect mood, or add beauty to a space. When you work with a dedicated lighting integrator, you will be able to use your knowledge of light and shadow, structural features, and how your client plans to use each area in conjunction with our technical expertise to bring your vision to life in both retrofits and new constructions.
Lutron Lighting
Lutron lighting control systems offer you unprecedented control of lighting intensity and color temperature for every fixture in your space. Their line of Ketra tunable lighting solutions can even improve your clients’ wellbeing by mimicking the patterns of the sun to enhance their circadian rhythm, from cool bright lighting to help them feel awake in the morning to warm amber lighting to help them unwind in the evening.
As a designer, you can create custom scenes or sequences of actions with a touch of a button for different lighting configurations in the same space. For example, you can create a “Dinner Party” scene with dimmed lighting that sets the perfect mood for conversation and a “Cooking” scene with bright lighting for when your clients are making food. We can even work with you to install landscape lighting with path illumination for clients that spend a lot of time outdoors!
