Interior Home Design Using LED Lighting
As Frank Lloyd Wright said, “More and more, so it seems to me, light is the beautifier of the building.” Undoubtedly, many interior designers, architects, and builders would agree. With the advent of dynamic, full-spectrum LED light fixtures, lighting has become akin to a painter’s palette, transforming a space with the touch of a button or a voice command.
More than illumination, today’s lighting design creates spaces of intrigue that change the environment for every feeling and function. It highlights architectural elements, furniture, and fine works of art in hues that bring out their best features. It offers natural lighting that fills a home with the color of daylight, promoting energy in the day and relaxation in the evening.
Frank Lloyd Wright would be amazed.
Let’s look at what this type of lighting offers those in the trade and why they should consider incorporating LED light fixtures.

The Benefits of LED Light Fixtures
There are several reasons why LED fixtures have taken over the industry. These include enhanced beauty, longevity, and energy efficiency. According to the EPA, LED lights may last up to 25 times longer than incandescent lighting and use at least 75% less energy. This appeals to homeowners that want to create a greener, eco-friendlier home and those looking to reduce their energy consumption and utility bills.
Beauty by Design
LED lighting is an interior designer’s dream. Add a splash of chartreuse, a wash of vermillion, or highlight a water feature in cerulean. With millions of colors of lights available from each source, there’s no limit to the design opportunities. Whether highlighting art or architectural elements, you can dial in the light so that every object and area looks its very best.
This lighting allows you to customize each area for every family member and the different activities they embrace. They can experiment with varying lights, from golden candlelight to arctic blue, and then set their preferred lighting to preset scenes. Now, tap the “relaxing” button on an in-wall keypad, and the lights transform to the programmed settings.
LED Accent Lighting
In 2022, Control4, our home automation partner, launched the Vibrant Linear Lighting system. When used for accent lighting, this premium LED strip offers a soft layer of illumination from an unseen source. When skillfully designed, the result is breathtaking beauty that can change instantly.
Control4 also introduced a vibrant Color Wheel in their recent upgrade. This enables designers and homeowners to dial in their LED light fixtures to precise coloring and then save it to call up with one touch.
Natural Light
Consider the beauty of natural light, from stars to moonbeams, flickering campfires, and sunshine. This form of lighting creates an enchanting interior that mimics the outside world. It promotes energy during the day with crisp, white light resembling sunlight and rest in the evening with the soft golden glow of the setting sun.
