Advantages of Intelligently-Controlled Landscape Lighting 

Imagine stepping into your backyard on a warm summer night, surrounded by the gentle glow of beautifully illuminated trees and pathways. Then, with a tap of a button, you raise the brightness of outdoor lights or adjust the colors. You’ve already scheduled the lights to power off by ten on weeknights (and midnight on the weekends), so you don’t need to worry about turning them off before bed. 

That’s the power of smart outdoor lighting. And when it comes to creating a truly enchanting outdoor space, Lutron is the brand that stands out.

Lutron is a renowned leader in the world of lighting control systems, known for its innovative automation capabilities. When outdoor LED fixtures are integrated into a Lutron system, you’ll have complete control over how they look, when they turn on, and where.
