HTSA is an international trade consortium of residential technology retail and custom integration specialists in the U.S. and Canada.
Colorscaping illuminates outdoor spaces enhancing landscapes for a personal, dynamic, illuminating experience with the touch of a button. The Smart Transformer helps install luminaires, test their control, and cycle through presets. Colorscaping upgrades existing systems easily and can be controlled via the My WAC app, WallStation, or home control system. It also creates custom color scenes.
“We are proud that Colorscaping received the Innovation Product of the Year award,” explains Patrick Laidlaw, director of business development-integration for AiSPIRE and WAC LIGHTING.
“We are honored to have our Colorscaping product chosen as Innovative Product of the Year by HTSA. The members of HTSA are a highly respected group of successful businesses and entrepreneurs, and we truly appreciate our products standing out among the field of other incredible and innovative products in the CI channel. Colorscaping will transform your everyday world into an outdoor wonderland of illumination,” Imagine being able to artistically tweak the colors within your landscape lighting, much like a professional photographer uses filters to evoke emotion. This game-changing technology allows you to enhance the natural changes in foliage, control full-color gamut LED arrays to modify the intensity of certain wavelengths within the white light, and create a personalized, dynamic illuminating experience.”
AiSPIRE and WAC LIGHTING point out outdoor lighting set at the correct color temperature can convert a nice property into an attractive landscape that impresses guests and neighbors. Using state-of-the-art RGBWW technology, the Colorscaping system can help landscapes pop with pure white light ranging from warm 2700K to cool 6500 Kelvin. For outdoor entertaining and nighttime activities, warm illumination delivers an inviting vibe and relaxing atmosphere for a quiet evening in an outdoor kitchen, mimics the comforting glow of a campfire, and brings out the beauty of the stonework and masonry. For safety, security, and a stunning look, cooler white light highlights architectural details and increases visibility in your outdoor space.
“When you’re the artist, you can paint with light- creating the right mix of warm and cool illumination around the property to generate maximum impact and bring out the natural beauty and hues of trees and shrubbery,” adds Laidlaw.
“Tune the white light to make evergreen trees ‘greener,’ Japanese maples ‘redder,’ and white houses ‘whiter.’ Warm lighting will make a brick home or wooden structure more inviting.”
