What Is Color Tuning for Lighting?
For many people, some areas of our homes lack the desired natural lighting. While it may seem to be merely an aesthetic quality, natural lighting has much more impact than you think. Sunlight greatly affects our human biology and can be linked with mood, productivity, and general comfort.
In recent years, new methods have been created to combat the lack of natural lighting inside a home, including color tuning. Here’s a quick overview!
What Is Color Tuning?
After installation, a lighting system with color tuning will allow you to control the color of light at any time of day. Home automation is a popular choice to combine with this feature, as you can mimic the sun’s natural east-west course throughout the day. You will be able to mimic a natural sunrise and sunset in your very own home with color tuning!
Three Different Types of Color Tuning
You might have already thought about the further customization your new color tuning install can handle. There are three different types of color tuning you can choose from!
Dim-to-Warm
Do you love the cozy lighting of a fireplace or candlelight? Then the dim-to-warm option sounds like a fit for you. These light preferences mimic firelight, bringing a warm, comforting glow to any room in your home you desire. This color tuning option works best in guest rooms, restaurants, and theaters.
Tunable White
If you want to match the intensity of the afternoon sunlight, tunable white is the option for you. The white-tunable color options increase the amount of blue light which can help stimulate the brain in order to maximize productivity. This type of light works best for commercial offices, home offices, or warehouses.
Full Color Tuning
If you want full customization, look no further than full color tuning! This type of tuning provides you with an RGBW (Red, Green, Blue, White) spectrum allowing you to pick and choose the exact color and brightness you so desire. With full color tuning, you will be able to match any situation or mood you may find yourself in.
