Smart Lighting Control: A Switchless Lighting Solution
Here Are 4 Options for Controlling Your Home’s Lighting without Flipping a Switch
People have done it for so long that they don’t even think twice about it: walking into a dark room and flipping the light switch. Immediate light floods the space, illuminating everything and even adding ambiance to the room. And yet, in a world of smart technology (i.e., smart cars, AI-powered computers and devices, and smart home products), you’d think there’d be a better way to control something as common as a light switch.
Smart lighting control is the answer! Instead of using a typical light switch or dimmer, you’ll enjoy a seamless and stylish way to illuminate your Bay Area, California home. Still, there’s more than one way to do it! Keep reading to learn how smart lighting control comes in many forms.

Mobile Smart Devices
It’s like something out of science fiction – at least, that’s what people would have thought over 20 years ago: remotely controlling lights, motorized shades, home security, and every other smart home technology. Now, it’s commonplace for many luxury homeowners. Adjusting the lighting in a space is as easy as tapping an icon on your smart home tablet or smartphone. Turn the lights on or off from your seat or even when you’re in another room.
Wall Keypads
Nobody likes wall acne. Those are the dozens of switches that mar the walls throughout your home. People have been using them for decades. But why now? Smart lighting control offers much better options. For instance, Lutron designs elegant wall keypads for lighting control. The company’s Alisse wall control panel is perfect for luxury homes. Choose from a palette of genuine metal finishes, such as aged bronze, satin nickel, or matte black to add exquisite appeal to your walls. Then, tap a pre-programmed button to adjust all the lights in a room.
Voice Assistance
Voice-assisted automation has become more and more popular these days. Voice assistants like Alexa, Google Assistant, and Siri for iPhones have transformed how we interact with our homes, phones, cars, computers, and more! If you aren’t using a voice assistant in your home, now is the time to try. Hermary’s installs Josh.ai, a powerful and intuitive natural language processing system that understands your commands and adjusts every smart device in your home.
Use a Remote
Remotes haven’t become obsolete – not yet! In fact, smart home brands like Control4 and Savant have developed sophisticated but easy-to-use remotes that allow you to control all your home’s technologies. While they are primarily small touchscreens in remote form, they serve the same purpose as a traditional remote. Place one on your coffee table or by your bedside, and use it whenever you need to dim lights, adjust motorized shades, or turn on your whole-home audio system.
