Let Captivate Change the Way Your ATX Home Looks & Feels

It’s finally getting chilly here in the Austin area, and along with the cooler weather comes the end of daylight saving time. Shorter days and longer nights leave many of us feeling discombobulated and wondering where the heck our day goes since it’s already dark by the time the workday is over!

Luckily lighting control systems can help Texas homeowners take back their day with innovative technology. One tap of a button or a preset schedule can shift your home from a dark abyss once it hits 6pm into a relaxing oasis meant to help your body and mind ease into the nighttime. Want to learn more? Keep reading below to explore what’s possible with this simple light management tool from Captivate!

Automated Lighting

Walk into a well-lit home with Ketra tunable lighting set to color temperatures that support your mood and well-being. Warm, amber-hued tones signal to the brain that it’s time to let loose and let the day’s worries fade away during the latter parts of the day. Scheduled to turn on once you arrive home from work, these lights help beat the nighttime winter doldrums that happen to many of us in Texas this time of year when the sun sets so early. In the mornings, these same fixtures shift from warm tones to cool blue hues to help energize you for the day ahead! 

And once daylight saving time starts again in March, your lighting system automatically syncs with an atomic clock and adjusts to fit your needs. There’s no need to fumble through multiple settings to adapt your lighting control system because it’s intelligent enough to make your life easier.

More Than Lighting

Believe it or not, a lighting control system can manage more than your home’s lights. Our professional integration team can find the perfect control system platform to manage as few or as many of your connected devices as you need. Start small, then consider adding simple control and automation to your motorized blinds, whole-home audio system, or your entire home’s worth of technology solutions! We partner with industry-leading automation and control brands like Crestron to bring our Austin-area clientele the ultimate luxury living experience.

Smart Scenes

Want to shift the mood of a room in an instant? Simply press a button on an on-wall keypad or touchscreen interface to dim and brighten lights, adjust the color, and more! The Football scene will set the room’s color scheme to match your favorite sports team and fire up the AV system so you can watch the big game with friends. The Outdoor Party scene will start streaming a funky pop playlist over outdoor speakers while the landscape lighting turns on for ambiance and safety. Practically any combination of device responses is possible when Captivate brings home control to your property.
