Lighting is integrated within the fabric of the architecture and interior of the residence, enhancement of the vertical and horizontal plains with light reinforce the architectural elements, such as the over hanging roof and the privacy screens which become opaque when light is applied and transparent by day. A family home, this residence needed to be functional and yet progressive in its design; decorative lighting elements are the focal point of the lighting scheme with a delicate background of architectural lighting enhancement, to enable the harbor to become part of the home without lighting dominating. Current lighting technologies are employed ensuring the energy efficient benefits of LED whilst achieving the warm tone dimming characteristics of halogen lights sources through the use of 'warm-dim' technology. a centralized control system is implemented enabling lighting control via the smart phone or more traditional control via switch plates, achieving scene control for smooth transition from day to night.
