Lutron’s Dimmers Offer Greater Control And Sleeker Looks

Lutron’s Dimmers Offer Greater Control And Sleeker Looks

A room can be completely transformed by lighting, yet the control of it via dimmers remains one of the most overlooked and underused aspects of home interior design.
Quality dimmers – such as those from Lutron, whose founder invented the electronic dimmer in 1961 – can be used in rooms to create dramatic or subtle changes of ambience, to suit both mood and occasion.

Dimmer switches also help save energy, as dimming a bulb’s light output will normally reduce its energy consumption and extend its life, whilst having only a minimal change in perceived light levels. By dimming lights by 10%, it is possible to save around 10% of energy.

What makes Lutron’s dimmers stand out, is an over-riding commitment to technology and design – which results in a significant ‘step-up’ from the usual dimmer experience.
This is because Lutron’s dimmers are designed by some of America’s best engineers, are made using top-quality materials and finally are tested far above industry standards.

Powerful and discreet-placed on a motorized floor stand, BeoVision 4-103 represents a whole new approach to the placement of a giant flat screen TV; the screen itself will rest only inches above the floor when the TV is not in use, reducing its prominence in the room and concealing all integrated applications.
