Lighting can completely change the way a room appears, and colours further boost this transforming power.
“Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions”, said Pablo Picasso once. What’s more, they can greatly influence behaviour: warm colours and red in particular can increase someone’s appetite, and one study even linked the effectiveness of drugs with the colour of the pills used.
Turn on the (sun)light
Lighting technology made incredible progress and home automation enables you to effortlessly harness its power to literally put your space in the best light. For example, Lutron’s Ketra makes it possible to seamlessly simulate natural light and program it to change during the day.
Ketra – Natural light. Better Life.
Besides allowing you to extend the outer sunlight into your room, this also helps you to stay energized when the weather outside is not the best: forget about gloomy winter days and enjoy beautiful natural light whatever your latitude is.
When the day is over, a candle-like glow helps you unwind. With a bespoke, pre-programmed scene, this can be combined with your favourite music and ideal temperature to softly ease you into sleep.
Transform your home with a single touch with bespoke scenes
Instantly set the mood
Whether you need an intimate setting for a dinner for two or crazy colours for a New Year’s party, smart lighting can help you translate your mood into the room. Besides being compact in size and long lasting, LED lights allow for an exceptional range of colours and you can choose between different combinations to reflect your preferences. You can setup some accent lighting on a statement piece of furniture. Or create a warm and cosy atmosphere for a relaxing bath. Possibilities are endless.
Thanks to an integrated system, all the technology in your home will work together, with little to no effort on your end. For example, you can activate a “party” scene with the touch of a button: the room is instantly lit up with vibrant and dynamic colours, the temperature adjusts to accommodate the increased number of people and you can stream your favourite playlist wirelessly in any room or let your friends share their songs via Airplay.

When it’s time to say goodbye, the “goodnight” scene takes care or everything: your bedroom warms up or cools down to your liking, blinds and curtains close automatically, lights and music are turned off throughout the house and the alarm is armed for your peace of mind. Should anything suspicious happen through the night, your house wakes up with you: one touch and you can turn all the lights on, check on the CCTV and seek help if needed; all from the comfort of your smartphone and even if you are away from home.
