3 Reasons to Upgrade to a Smart Lighting Control System
A Lutron Solution Enhances Your Home’s Elegance and Efficiency
Of all the technology in your New York home, lighting is probably the most underrated. Often the first thing we use when we get up in the morning and the last thing we turn off before going to bed, lighting gets overshadowed by flashier things, like wireless speakers, surveillance cameras or even smart thermostats. Despite all of that, a lighting control system is actually one of the first smart updates people typically make. A small adjustment to your lighting control can do wonders for your home, making it more beautiful and efficient.

Newfound Efficiency with Custom Control
Deciding how you want to manage your lights and which rooms you want to include should be the first step in designing a home lighting control system. The great thing about Lutron is that you can pick and choose what upgrades you want to make. For example, getting dimmers to replace your old wall switches already leads to reduced energy bills. You can start with one-room Caseta solutions or go big with a HomeWorks QS.
Don’t worry about leaving lights on in empty rooms ever again. Invest in a whole-home solution that gives you access to all your lights from a touchpad, smartphone, or tablet. Pull up your user interface to see if lights are on anywhere then turn them off even if you’re in another room. Vacant rooms can also have lights automatically turn off through the use of motion sensors. If there’s no activity for a given time, your lights will turn off until someone reenters the room.
Design Beautiful Indoor and Outdoor Spaces
You can eliminate clutter and highlight your home’s best features through a smart lighting control system. Designers can get rid of wall clutter by giving you access through an elegant touchpad instead. Through intuitive, centralized control it’s also easier to find the perfect setting for each room. Have light fixtures at different intensity or color to highlight architectural features, artwork or furnishings.
Even your outdoor spaces could use an intricate lighting design. Lights on your patio, balcony, or rooftop can be designed to highlight hanging plants or sculptures. It’s also easier to create impressive outdoor entertainment spaces. When hosting friends, gear your lights towards your grill or outdoor bar. Have to make adjustments as it gets darker? Just pull up your smartphone to turn up the lights as the sun sets.
