Design-Centric Lighting Solutions

Whole-home audio has become the new residential sound system, bringing high-fidelity music and surround sound to every room. So, you may wonder, what does that have to do with design-centric lighting solutions? 

The new home audio system performs this all-encompassing miracle without detracting from a home’s aesthetics. It does this using architectural speakers that blend in seamlessly, from in-ceiling speakers that look like small aperture downlights to in-wall speakers that leave no visible footprint.

The same is true with today’s advanced LED lighting systems. One of the growing trends is high-performance, full-spectrum LED tape light. This lighting provides an ambient glow coming from an unseen source. From soft pastels to vibrant hues and shimmering whites, one press of a button changes the color temperature and intensity. 

As designers and integrators, our experts at A.B.E Networks commonly install this lighting in ceiling coves, under cabinets, along bookshelves and staircases, and in toe kicks. Felt as much as seen, it elevates a home’s atmosphere in brilliant yet gentle illumination.

Artificial Intelligence for Smarter Living

AI has made its presence known in nearly every industry, including smart homes. Advanced voice assistants, such as Josh.ai, learn as you make your requests and get to know your preferences. Over time, you’ll find it’s creating the ideal environment without you even saying a word. Any of the tasks you usually do, from adjusting the shades, lighting, and climate to turning on TV programs or streaming playlists, your smart home does for you.

Wellness Redefined

Luxury living was once defined by the highest-quality materials, the finest artwork, and kitchens that spread from the interior to the great outdoors. Today, a luxurious lifestyle lies in experiences and turning homes into relaxing retreats. 

To accomplish this, integrators are turning to Natural Light, a form of illumination that brings daylight indoors, mirroring the changing light of the natural world. Your home seems filled with the breathtaking beauty of sunlight during the day and the soft glow of a sunset in the evening. Your body responds with a sense of well-being, coming back into alignment with the natural ebb and flow under which it evolved. 

We can also program your smart home to ease stress and promote relaxation. Press a ‘Relax’ button, and your ‘Mellow Out’ playlist streams through the house and outdoor areas, landscape lights create the look of moonlight filtering through the trees, and the spa heats to a cozy 102°F. 

Today’s technology offers an incredible lifestyle, and it’s only getting better. To learn more about the latest smart home automation or to schedule a complimentary consultation, contact A.B.E. Networks today.
