The lightbulb’s invention changed everything. Suddenly, people could learn and work later in the day, spurring an industrial revolution. The light bulb reduced the number of house fires caused by candles, and people enjoyed more leisure time than ever.
While we love the lightbulb, it does have its drawbacks. Humans weren’t technically meant to stay up all night, and if you’re using bright, cool-toned lights late in the day, you could be accidentally disrupting your circadian rhythm.
But we’re in the midst of a new lighting revolution—the age of LED lighting design. With smart LED lighting systems, we can automate lights to complement and balance our internal clocks to live more healthily.
Read on to see how tunable circadian lighting works and will benefit your University Park, TX home. Interested in a LED lighting design? Contact Texadia Systems to get started.
People are introduced to smart lighting in many ways. Some start with plug-and-play smart bulbs that let them change the color from their phone. From there, they might decide they’d like to expand smart lighting across the house with a more sophisticated system.

Whatever piqued your interest in lighting control, we’re happy you’re here. Brands like Lutron offer incredibly exciting lighting technology that lets homeowners transform their interior’s atmosphere. And beyond looks, it adds plenty of benefits to daily life.

We’ve been shading our windows much the same way for hundreds of years. Pulling on chords, tugging on fabric—it’s time-consuming if you need to do it multiple times a day. And in large homes with hard-to-reach windows, you may just leave the shades open.
That is, until motorized shades. Motorized shades aren’t a brand-new concept, but Lutron has refined the technology to perform seamlessly across the house through automated schedules and smart commands. And Lutron is committed to its motorized shading business— it’s recently broken ground on a new 145,000-square-foot shading factory in Virginia.
