Fixtures Chosen Like Materials.

Downlights, coves, pendants and tape, specified for the ceiling they sit in and the light they give at nine at night.

From a reflected ceiling plan to a lit room.

Architectural lighting fixtures are chosen before the ceiling is built, so each sits where the plan says and gives the light it promised.

  1. A wireframe drawing of a house rising from its architectural plans

    The reflected ceiling plan

    Every downlight, cove and pendant drawn on the ceiling plan, with the beam it needs.

  2. A site lead in a hard hat reading the plans beside a pool under construction

    Rough-in and drivers

    Housings, drivers and cable go in while the ceiling is open, each where the plan puts it.

  3. Square and round Lutron Ketra downlight trims in white, black, bronze and silver, laid out on white

    Trims, chosen to disappear

    Square or round Ketra D2 trims, in white, black, bronze or silver, set to the ceiling’s finish.

  4. A continuous line of Lutron Lumaris tape light along the base of a pale wall

    Coves and tape

    Lumaris tape light tucked into coves, steps and cabinets, so the glow reads as architecture.

  5. A living room at sunset, cove lighting glowing along the ceiling

    Aim, dim, scene

    Each fixture aimed, dimmed and set into the room’s scenes before the house is handed over.

What we specify, and why.

  • Full-spectrum, tunable white

    Ketra D2 downlights move from cool daylight to warm amber through the day.

  • Trims that disappear

    Square or round, in the ceiling’s own finish, so the light shows and the fixture does not.

  • An optic for every surface

    Swappable optics set the beam to the wall, the table or the art it falls on.

  • Linear light in the cove

    Tape light hides in the cove or under the cabinet, so you see the glow, never the source.

  • Color that stays true

    Full-spectrum light that shows art, timber and stone as they are, at any hour.

  • Every light on one system

    Each fixture dims and recalls with the room’s scene, from the same keypad as the shades.

The same fixtures, four times a day.

  1. A timber-framed kitchen in morning light, pendants over a wooden island

    Morning

    Cool, bright light over the island, close to the daylight coming through the glass.

  2. A traditional kitchen under a skylight, a woman at the counter in afternoon light

    Afternoon

    Daylight does most of the work; the fixtures fill in only where it falls short.

  3. A woman reading on a sofa by a fireplace, a warm glow across the room

    Evening

    By the fire, amber light at reading level and the rest of the room down to a glow.

  4. A man sitting on the edge of a bed at night, the room lit low and warm

    Night

    The bedroom low and warm, one touch from dark.

The questions buyers ask first.

What is tunable white lighting?

Light that changes color temperature, from cool daylight to warm candlelight, as the day goes on. With Ketra, the light moves from cool and bright in the morning to warm amber at night, on a schedule nobody has to think about.

Do we choose the fixtures, or do you?

Both, together. We specify the fixtures with your architect and interior designer from the plans, so each one suits its room and answers to the same system as every other light in the home.

Can fixtures be changed in an existing home?

Yes. Lutron Lumaris downlights come in retrofit and remodel versions and connect wirelessly, so tunable white light can be brought into a finished home as well as a new one.
