Bring the Best of Lighting Control to Your Texas Smart Home

Whether you own a Savant system, are planning to install one, or are in the early stages of smart home research, lighting and shading are key components to smart home automation. 

And while Savant manufactures excellent lighting fixtures and motorized shades, Savant’s compatibility with Lutron lighting solutions unlocks a world of new possibilities. As a home automation company, Texadia Systems looks to Lutron for the widest breadth of lighting and shading options with stylish keypads, numerous shading options, and completely customizable LED lights. 

The benefits go both ways when you use Lutron with Savant. Savant expands your smart home experience into security, HVAC, audio, and video, while Lutron takes lighting to the next level.

Command Your Lights & Shades Alongside Other Home Devices

Imagine lights that know where and when to turn on and motorized window shades that rise on their own. And imagine lights that, in the evening, gradually dim and warm to a golden shade of white. Finally, consider what life would be like if you replaced light switches with keypads customized to daily life, with buttons like “Dinner” and “Away.” 

It’s all a reality when you own a Lutron lighting control system. Lutron intelligently syncs all your lights, shades, and even smart thermostats to a central controller. So whether you’re using the Lutron app or pressing a button on the wall, you can activate and adjust your lights’ appearance anytime. 

Some homeowners choose to install a Lutron system and leave it there. But you can take it further by integrating it into a greater smart home system, like Control4. Learn how Lutron works and enhances your Control4 smart home in University, TX.

Lighting Design for Superior Aesthetics & Smart Control 

Lighting design is all about the human experience. It’s where technology and art collide, transforming a space’s atmosphere through curated colors and brightness levels. 

But lighting can pose its challenges for homeowners and interior designers. Wooden ceilings are a charming, rustic addition to any interior, but it doesn’t suit many recessed lighting fixtures. The flange and trim stick out like a sore thumb against the wood, ruining the design. 

Luckily, one of our favorite lighting manufacturers, DMF Lighting, has a solution for wood ceilings. DMF’s new M-Series fixtures blend perfectly in wooden ceiling finishes and are built for DMF’s smart LED lights, which can be intelligently controlled through smart home systems. 

Here’s what makes the M-Series so valuable to any lighting design project!

How You Can Customize Your Smart Lighting System 

Have you used a smart bulb before? They’ve become increasingly popular in recent years and are even available at stores like The Home Depot and online on Amazon. While it’s fun to play with lighting colors from your phone, DIY smart bulbs aren’t a practical solution to illuminate your entire house. They often have trouble saving settings, don’t communicate with each other, and lack customization options. 

But there is an alternative. Sophisticated lighting control systems like Lutron and Control4 are built for whole-home control and are smart enough to group lights together and operate them on a schedule. 

The possibilities are nearly endless with high-end lighting systems that can be used to make your house look and feel more comfortable than ever. 

Here’s how you can control LED lights in your Southlake home with smart systems like Lutron and Control4. And to bring smart lighting to your Texas home, contact Texadia Systems here.

Let There Be (Smart) Lights in Your Dallas Home

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.

Other folks may already own a smart home system like Control4, which they use for multi-room audio, video, or security. They might then incorporate smart lighting and shading, synced to the same 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.

Take Total Control of Your Texas Home’s Lighting

When it comes to new builds, renovations, or interior design projects, we often mistakenly overlook our home’s lighting. But lighting can influence your house’s atmosphere just as much as furniture or a new carpet. Most builders install light switches and lights haphazardly in homes. A certified lighting designer knows how to create an LED lighting design that can be controlled by a smart system, so your home looks its best, is more convenient to manage, saves energy, and is safer, too.

How? We share how an LED lighting design can enhance any home so you can find inspiration for your University Park, TX-area house. Discover the possibilities below!

3 Reasons Why Lutron Palladiom Is the Designer’s Choice for Custom Shades

As technology advances, our lives quickly transform, and we forget how much easier and more convenient they’ve become. One day, we’ll look back on manual shades in the same light—a necessity that required getting up and tugging at cords to close or raise the window coverings.

If you haven’t considered motorized shades because you’re concerned about how they’ll integrate into your home’s aesthetics and lifestyle, you’ll be happy to hear about Lutron's Palladiom line. These window coverings are the designer’s choice for custom shades. Let’s explore their many features and how they’re transforming homes in Dallas, TX, and the Dallas-Fort Worth area. 

If you’d like to learn more about Palladiom motorized shades or one of the many other smart window coverings in Lutron’s lineup, contact Texadia Systems.

We’ll Share the Benefits—Then You Be the Judge.

One of the top questions people ask us about lighting control is: “Is it worth it?” Honestly, it depends! If you use a sophisticated system like Lutron, then absolutely. But plug-and-play Wi-Fi-connect light bulbs are not convenient for adding smart lighting to an entire house.

Once you’ve paid a visit to our showroom and seen Lutron lighting control in action, you’ll no longer wonder if it’s worthwhile. But until then, if you’ve never used a smart lighting system, you might not know just how transformative it can be. 

Here’s what you can expect living with Lutron lighting and shading. And to learn more about Lutron for your Highland Park, TX home, contact Texadia Systems here for a free consultation!

SEE WHAT YOU’VE BEEN MISSING  

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. 

If you still use manual shades and blinds in your Westlake, TX home, see what you’ve been missing below. And if you’re curious about installing Lutron shades, contact Texadia Systems here.
