Lighting industry has gone a long way from incandescent bulbs , fluorescent tubelights to CFL bulbs
and now to LED lights. The industry has also matured with respect to looking at “lighting” as a very
powerful design element architecturally. The illumination level, colour, temperature , intensity,
diffusion are various factors of “lighting” which are taken into consideration by architects and light
consultants to design an aesthetically pleasing environment.
Lighting affects our mood, productivity and over all health & wellbeing. The professional guides and consultants work in creating right ambient light for different spaces in homes according to the usages of the spaces like living area, study, kitchen, outdoor areas, bathroom, etc. Today we can change and control dimming levels of lights by changing intensity, can change colours to white, yellow etc. or can change colour temperatures to warm, cool, neutral as per the requirement and features available.
Sometimes changing above parameters becomes a tedious task on daily basis. Hence automation plays an important role in playing around various features provided through presets or moods configuration. Silvan provides control and configurations of all these complex parameters with one touch of button through smart interfaces as well as conventional switches.
