We’ve often pointed out the many benefits of motorized shades to homeowners through our blogs. But did you know there are outdoor shades you can use in your smart home? Outdoor shades have a wide range of benefits to offer. From keeping out pesky bugs to regulating temperature, here are some of the reasons we recommend outdoor shades for our clients in Westchester County, NY.
Home integration is more than just new and exciting technology. Home lighting automation from Digital Home Systems should converge organically with the interior design process for Fairfield County, New York homes.
Just as you can choose a color scheme for your living room with furniture and wall art, you can do the same with automated shades and lighting systems. Lighting automation is about more than just dimming, instead it’s about using every tool in the arsenal—from Lutron color beam technology to outdoor automated shades—to build a home that is uniquely yours.
We see a common theme in a lot of the lighting installations we get asked to do. A homeowner does the natural thing and discusses their lighting design with their architects and designers. A conventional plan gets put into place and construction begins, but then the homeowner realizes that they may want to add some automated features. That is often when there is a conversation about hiring a custom integrator to look at the lighting design and other smart home technologies. The majority of the time, we wish we had been brought into the design process earlier.
Now, we as the custom integrator have to recommend a number of technologies into an existing plan while hoping that the electricians have not done too much of the initial wiring. To fully integrate smart lighting features, we revise the lighting plan based on the smart lighting system the Owners choose. If we get involved after the electrician has started wiring, then the clients’ lighting choices are already significantly limited.
Getting an integrator into the process early will mean a more cohesive design and a lighting installation that meets all of your performance expectations. Below are just some of the reasons that we should be brought in from the start for any projects we work on in Greenwich, CT, or the surrounding area.SEE MORE: Explore the Comfort and Convenience of Motorized Shades by Lutron
