DESIGN YOUR HOME
Everything these days seems to be going smart: doorbells, entrances, curtains, blinds, TV’s and now ambience lighting? The most straightforward way to begin your smart whole-home upgrades is to get in touch with the Home Automation Designers at GreenStar Technologies. Smart lighting, as comparison to traditional lighting, is a more advanced means of gaining complete control over your electricity, both consumption and usage, with some unique advantages available exclusively through our smart lighting solutions. Smart lighting isn’t just for private residences but is seen to be used throughout the hospitality industry, 5 star hotels etc… It is both cost-effective and energy-efficient to switch from standard incandescent bulbs to a smart lighting system. The ability to regulate illumination from anywhere, even across a country, is appealing. But that’s merely the beginning and a small glimpse into the benefits of smart lighting solutions.
Are you building or renovating your home but don’t know where to begin? When it comes to smart lighting technology for your home, there are thousands of options – leave the headache to us! Our experienced and certified Technology Designers will conduct an initial design and discovery phase for your home to help define the best lighting solution for your home. Your personal Technology Designer will meticulously design a bespoke proposal that is built just for you and your home. Our design process save clients valueable time and money, and not to mention the headache that comes with building or rennovating a new home. Your contractors would never dream of building your home without a design from the Architect, therefore you should never implement a technology system without consulting a home automation specialist.
HALLWAY
Small, recessed up lights and step lights can accentuate walls upwards from the floor, while track lighting can directionally illuminate artwork and table displays. Beautiful pendant lights can also dot the ceiling to pull the line of sight down the hall to a room or large piece of artwork. Under the handrails of the staircase or beneath the lip of stairs are great places to add smart lights for safety.
ENTRANCE
The entryway is the perfect opportunity for a dramatic lighting display. Highlight two-story entries with a hanging statement fixture like a chandelier; this can draw the eyes of your guests upward before entering the property. Pendant lights and floor lamps also allow homeowners to add personal flair to their home lighting.
LIVING AREAS
Primary areas where your family spends most of their time – the bedroom, kitchen, and living spaces – are all fair game for a smart lighting upgrade. Throughout the home, smart home lighting can shift its hue to mimic that of the sun; warm, amber hues help relax you as the day comes to a close while the bright, cool hues liven up the home while you work from home or hang out during the day. Under-cabinet LED lighting in the kitchen create a mood for parties or even shine bright to illuminate the task at hand while preparing dinner.
NEARLY ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES
With our smart lighting solutions you can adjust the lighting within your home with a simple tap of your finger from anywhere in the world with a Control4 Smart Lighting System designed especially for you and your home.
WHAT IS A SMART LIGHTING SOLUTION?
Have you ever wanted to use your phone to manage your lighting? It’s possible to get up to manually turn the lamp on and off, but not if you’re attempting to light up your house on your way home from work during the gloomy winter months. Technology is progressing in all sectors, and our lighting solutions are finally benefiting from it. You may use Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Z-Wave, and even wireless smart technology like your smart phones and Apple Watch to turn all the lights in your home off and on from anywhere in the world. You can do more than just alter the illumination, but that’s a good start, especially if you want to dim the lights in the evening or turn them out altogether while watching a movie.
WHAT IS A SMART SWITCH?
You’re certainly familiar with traditional light switches that you fumble for in the dark. A smart switch is a light switch with additional characteristics that let you automate your house with connivence and simplicity. They look like standard switches and fit into the same locations as traditional outlets, with the exception that they can be customised to suit every individual’s lifestyle (appearance, colour, function etc…)
BENEFITS OF USING SMART LIGHTING:
Although it’s fun to play with your light settings with your smartphone, it’s more than just a cool gimmick. Changing out your regular lighting for smart lighting solutions offers several benefits including simplicity, control, and mood setting just the way you like to live.
POTENTIAL ENERGY SAVINGS FACTORS $
You can save a lot in energy usage, particularly when you use LED lights with dimmers. Sometimes you just don’t need full brightness from a light bulb, and the dimmer can cut down on energy usage to reduce your electricity bill. In addition, you can also turn off lights you’re not currently using. There’s really no point in illuminating a room when no one’s there (aside from security reasons), so these lights can just turn themselves off.
It’s even easier to save electricity now that you have the ability to schedule lights that can be dependent on the time of day and if you forget to turn them off you’ll be able to control them from anywhere in the world. It’s easy to manage your whole-homes smart lighting system. You can have access to your lighting whether lying in bed, sitting at your desk at work, or even on a remote island while on your phone. When you fail to switch out the lights, you won’t have to physically move from room to room. You can even alter the brightness, intensity, and hue (with the coloured LED smart bulbs) from your device with some of our smart lighting solutions.
PERSONALISED SCENES FOR EVERY OCCASION
Smart lighting custom “Scenes” offer you even more control over your home. These scenes can have subtle changes while still having an impact in your everyday living. If you (or someone in your family) enjoys reading, adjusting the lighting shade can help relieve eye strain. You may, however, create an atmosphere for your everyday routines. You might wish to reduce the lights when you first wake up to allow your eyes to adjust comfortably. Or, if your partner has a different schedule, as a measure to minimise bothering them, all you have to do is choose the appropriate scene that’s preset.
With home lighting automation, it’s a simple matter to set a schedule for your lights. You can have each light (or group of lights) to turn on or off at specific times. You can even set them to turn on or off at random times so that burglars casing your home won’t think that no one’s home. Scenes are also used when travelling for business or vacation. If you’re worried about leaving the lights out for a few days, configure them to turn on at random intervals to give the impression that someone is home “Away from home” mode.
SET THE MOOD WITH COLOUR
Color and scene customisation wasn’t always a smart lighting feature, but it is now when using our smart lighting solutions. When you’re watching a movie, reading, or preparing to sleep, changing colours in your smart lighting with one-touch scenes, can help improve your lifestyle. Certain colours can help you sleep better by reducing eye strain. That’s not all, though. Blue illumination can help you feel better, especially during the winter months when the clouds are thick and sunlight is scarce.
Lights can create moods and can be used in a variety of scenarios. For a romantic date or late-night illumination, you can pre-program a lighting design. When you’re watching TV, you can even adjust the lighting so that your room isn’t too bright and you can still see the remote and your snacks. The lights may turn on gradually in the morning in some circumstances. The kitchen areas can be brightly illuminated so that individuals can get their java fix, but the remainder of the house can be dimly lit. When you’re getting out of bed before dawn, this should keep the shock of bright lighting to a minimal. That can really set a whole new mood for any room in the house.
CONTROL, MONITOR AND ACCESS REMOTELY
Switch the lights on or off and set scenes remotely. There was a period when individuals had light switches near their beds so they wouldn’t have to get out of bed to turn off the lights from the wall switch. However, you can just use your smartphone or tablet, which is always with you wherever you go. To turn on or off your lights, you simply ultilise one touchscreen, one remote or your smart devices! In some circumstances, you can even control your bedroom lights with your voice. Some lights can even turn on or off automatically based on your location as determined by your smartphone’s GPS. And you’re not limited to just the lights in your room either but you can control, monitor and access the lighting system in your whole-home. You can use the app to also turn off the lights or set scenes in your children’s bedrooms when it’s time for them to go to sleep.
