Better Lighting Design Leads to a Beautiful Home

Explore the Impact of Lighting Design On Your Lifestyle

There are two options for setting the mood in a room. Option one is rearranging the space with a new layout or altering the furniture and finishes. Option two is investing in a professional lighting design and installation. This option saves you the trouble of rearranging your space and gives you the power to change a room’s look and feel at the tap of a button. Savvy homeowners that want to add convenience, comfort, and style prefer option two.

Wellness-Centered Design

Wellness is a central aspect of our philosophy at HTE. That’s why we partner with companies like Delos, giving our clients access to the latest residential air purification systems. But what do lighting control, design, and automation have to do with your health? 

Ketra, acquired by Lutron in 2018, offers tunable lights and intuitive controls designed and engineered to mimic the color temperature and rejuvenating properties of sunlight. By taking a human-centric approach to lighting, Ketra has created a series of products that optimize circadian rhythms, which are the natural processes in your body that respond to natural light. For example, cool, blue-toned white light is associated with an increased heart rate and productivity, which is ideal for the home office. On the other hand, warm, amber-toned lighting would work best at night in spaces like bedrooms, helping you relax for a restful night of sleep while improving recovery and healing times. 

Pair mood-supporting Ketra lights with our team’s eye for architectural detail and home enhancement, and you’ll have a home filled with beautiful fixtures perfectly designed and installed to highlight your home. Sconces, pendants, under-cabinet lights, uplights, and downlights all work together to showcase your home in its best light!

Step Outside to Beautiful Lighting

Lighting design plays an important role both inside and outside your home. A professional landscape lighting design gives you the tools to customize the ambiance in your outside entertainment areas with a single touch or automatically. Scheduled smart lights will also help with security, blanketing your entries, garage, and walkways in the dead of night to deter potential thieves looking for an easy - and vacant - target.
