Lighting and Shading

Lighting design is one of the most essential, and often overlooked, elements of interior design. Quality lighting will enhance your space and set the right mood at the right time. A lighting control system provides the capability to conveniently create and activate lighting scenes – like creating a dimmed scene affecting multiple lighting layers in a space to set the perfect lighting output and colour. Besides convenience, lighting control can enhance other systems in your home. For instance, during an alarm situation you may want all your lights at full brightness, the perimeter to flash, and shades to raise up. Occupancy sensors, photosensors, and timeclocks can also elevate your lighting experience by automating many commonly performed actions. We install only the highest quality lighting, shading, and control products. Click below to find out more.
