4 Ways Smart Lighting Control Changes Your Texas Home

Captive Audio is the Leading Lighting Expert Serving Barton Creek and Beyond

For a grand aesthetic, the lighting in your Austin-area home requires more than a few standard light bulbs. Imagine having the exterior of your Barton Creek property bathed in illumination that showcases landscaping work and subtle architectural details of your home. Indoors, bright, cool-toned lights that keep you feeling energized midday gradually shift to a warm incandescent glow as the evening proceeds. All that’s required from you is a tap of a button!

Keep reading below to learn four ways smart lighting control can change your daily lifestyle in Texas.

Simple Control

Such a simple aspect of living is often overlooked, but think of your current light switches and shades. How many times have you gotten snug as a bug in bed then begrudgingly realized you needed to hop back out again in order to turn off the lights or shut the blinds at the end of the day? There’s no need to lose your cozy spot with a smart lighting control system. Pull out your smartphone, use a bedside touch panel, or grab the wireless Lutron Pico remote to turn off the lights and lower the automated window treatments in seconds.

Our expert lighting team can also help you schedule pre-set scenes that automate lighting functions at specified times of day, so your landscape lighting turns on automatically at dusk.

 

Ketra Lighting

We’ve written before about Ketra tunable lighting, and we’re lucky to have the opportunity to take our clients to the Ketra Collaboration Studio in the early phases of lighting design projects. The brand’s human-centric lighting shifts color temperature with the press of a button or automatically throughout the day with lighting control system management.

Practically every color in the visible color spectrum falls right at your fingertips with a control system that incorporates Ketra smart LED bulbs. Showcase artwork with patented LED optics that make an artist’s bold color selections vibrant in indoor lighting. Upholstery fabrics and furniture finishes look amazing when the color temperature is tuned just-so with precision control.

 

Complement Décor

A smart lighting control system can incorporate lighting and shading solutions that complement your existing design tastes. Luxury roller shade fabrics of varying opacities combine form and function, providing protection from harmful UV rays while pairing nicely with your décor. Wall keypads come in various finishes, including mattes and metals, plus every label is custom-etched for a refined look. Incorporate Lutron’s Alisse keypads for an old-world aesthetic with tangible push buttons or install a touch panel on the wall for a modern-looking control option.

 

Easy Integration

A Lutron smart lighting control system can work as a standalone subsystem in your Barton Creek estate, or it can incorporate into a Crestron home control system. Imagine using one system to control lighting, shades, audio/video, security, and more! It’s possible with Captive Audio.
