WHAT IS CIRCADIAN LIGHTING?

Circadian lighting benefits our biological and emotional health and wellbeing by adjusting the intensity and color temperature of our electric light sources to simulate the changing levels of sunlight. So, how do changes in light intensity and color temperature impact our wellbeing? The simple answer is that our circadian rhythms, or biological clocks, work in tandem with the changing stages of natural light. The bright, blue-tinted light of the afternoon helps us feel energized and focused, while the dim, amber-tinted light of the evening prepares our bodies for rest.

If you’re stuck under harsh, stagnant light at home or sitting in front of blue-lit screens all day, you’re hindering your body’s natural ability to keep you energized during the day and rested at night. Plus, extreme afternoon fatigue and sleeping troubles can lead to more serious health issues. Circadian lighting control brings the benefits of natural light indoors to help you work, play, and sleep better.

THE RIGHT LIGHT FOR EVERY MOMENT

Tunable white LED bulbs and fixtures from brands like Ketra and USAI can be fine-tuned to create the perfect color temperature and intensity of light at any time. From crystal-white daylight to the flicker of candlelight, recreate the feel of natural lighting to improve focus and rest when it matters most.

When integrated with lighting control systems from Lutron and Savant, you’ll enter a world of possibilities for whole-home lighting control. Create one-tap scenes like “Morning” or “Evening” that instantly adjust the intensity and color temperature of your lights in one or all the rooms of your home. Scenes are easily accessible via a mobile app, dedicated touch screens, or customized wall keypads. You can also set your lights to adjust on their own so that you’re always drenched in optimal lighting.

Unleash infinite shades of color beyond the white spectrum, too. Perfect for special occasions like at-home dinner dates or parties, colorful lighting can add that missing flair to your events. Play with purple and pink hues to spice up an evening get-together, or celebrate a holiday with bright greens, reds, and blues. You’ll have access to the full-color spectrum and can fine-tune your fixtures with ease using the Lutron or Savant Pro mobile app.

SOPHISTICATED FIXTURES AND KEYPAD OPTIONS

You don’t have to undergo an extensive renovation when upgrading to circadian lighting solutions, and you don’t have to break your budget, either. In fact, Ketra’s D3 fixtures require less than 25% of the total amount of wiring of comparable fixtures and require less than 25% of the total labor hours needed to install, all while still providing the best quality light and control available. Ketra and USAI offer unique cylinder, linear, and other pendant light fixtures that can elevate the décor of a new build, but we can also work with your existing light fixtures. For enhanced control, architectural keypads can add beauty to your interiors as well, with various materials, colors, and configurations to choose from.

A new line of luxury wall keypads to consider is the Alisse keypad collection from Lutron. Exclusive to the Lutron HomeWorks QS control system, which integrates seamlessly with Ketra, Alisse keypads offer a timeless design and come in a variety of exquisite metal finishes.
