Save time and money by incorporating smart lighting into the initial home design

Lighting should never be an afterthought in a new home design. Every house has different lighting requirements, and addressing the lighting layout in the new construction phase ensures that the functional and aesthetic needs are met when the house is complete.

Incorporating smart lighting control into the initial home design offers multiple benefits for design-build professionals and homeowners alike. Architects and builders will save time, money, and labor by working with a smart lighting expert from the beginning of a project. And homeowners will benefit from the flexibility and convenience that lighting control brings to their lifestyle.

Keep reading to learn three benefits of installing lighting control during the new construction phase of Bergen County, NJ, homes.

Prewiring

A hardwired lighting system is more secure, reliable, and far less prone to disruption from signal interferences than a wireless solution. The biggest drawbacks of a wired system are the time, labor, and money it takes to install the cabling infrastructure in a home. But prewiring during the new construction phase eliminates these drawbacks. 

During prewiring, an integrator like Electronic Concepts will install in-wall and in-ceiling cabling that leads back to a central AV closet where the control panel for the lighting lives. Since prewiring takes place while the framework of the house is being built, the process is efficient from a time and labor perspective, and it eliminates the need to rip open the walls and ceiling to add wiring later in the project. 

The result is a reliable lighting foundation with no visible wires to clutter the aesthetics of a new home.

Centralized Control

As we mentioned above, prewiring allows an integrator to structure the home so that all wires and circuits lead to a central location. With a centralized lighting system, homeowners can use a single wall-mounted keypad, remote, or another smart device to control multiple light fixtures at once. The centralized setup eliminates the need for local controls like banks of dimmers and switches (called “wall acne”) that clutter the walls in every room. 

Instead, custom-engraved keypads can be programmed to operate all the fixtures in a room, floor, or even the whole house. Not only does centralized smart lighting have a clean and minimal aesthetic, but it provides homeowners with more capabilities to create custom lighting scenes that set the desired environment with the press of a button.

Cohesive Design

Lighting is a critical component of home design and shouldn’t be a secondary priority. Architects, builders, and interior designers can benefit from working with a lighting expert like Electronic Concepts from the beginning of a project to ensure that the design meets the homeowner’s needs for ambient, task, and accent lighting. Additionally, a lighting team can work side-by-side with architects and designers to incorporate lighting that shows off intricate architectural features, artwork, and other unique design elements.

If you’re a builder, architect, interior designer, or homeowner with an upcoming home project, consider partnering with Electronic Concepts for all your smart lighting control needs. Connect with our team by calling 201-880-1872 or filling out an online contact form. We look forward to working with you!
