A lighting control system unlocks the limitless potential of your home, improving how it functions, feels, and looks. Your busy schedule doesn’t have to get in the way of keeping your home beautiful, day and night! Through our partnership with Control4, you can use your lights with the rest of your home’s controls. If you’re curious about exploring lighting control throughout your home, contact our team at Rivas TechGroup today to begin! Safe and Sound As unusual as it may seem, a lighting control system can help secure your property and loved ones. To deter intrusions, you can program different timed scenes that turn lights on and off throughout the day when you’re away from home. You can also use motion sensor lights that brighten up the exterior of your home when your car enters the driveway or when someone comes near your home. Not only is this a time-saving investment, but it can also increase the security of your property. Color on Command Transform your home into the ultimate party scene, set the mood for a relaxing night indoors, or watch your plants flourish with a lighting control system. We react to lighting on an emotional level, and it affects our alertness, ability to concentrate, and stress levels. Blue and white lights generate energetic feelings, while red light increases melatonin levels. Additionally, lights in several different colors can add a breath of fresh air to your garden. Supercharge your herb, vegetable, and flower gardens with a combination of blue and red lights to encourage growth. Control4 makes changing the hue of your lights simple with a built-in color wheel.
After a long day at work, there’s nothing better than coming home to a calm bedroom or inviting living room. But did you know that your lighting can play a big part in creating the mood for your home? Here at Rivas TechGroup, we know how to perfectly light your spaces and leave the automated controls in your hands to create the ideal ambiance in every room. Here are some of our favorite techniques. Lighting for Kitchens The kitchen is often a gathering point in the house due to its central location for preparing and eating food. To create a welcoming environment, a large ceiling-mounted or recessed light fixture can generate ambient light for your space. But you’ll also need task lighting to illuminate your workspaces, like undercabinet lights to help you better see your chopping and sautéing. A pendant light hanging atop an island is another perfect task lighting solution. Adding a dimmer will help change your ambiance from bright and motivating while prepping a big dinner to a more relaxed atmosphere that encourages you and your friends to split a bottle of wine.
