"Gadgetry-wise this room is packed with features that would make Q-branch proud.""Susan used a flexible lighting scheme capable of intensifying the drama or softening the look. All of the elements are on a Lutron system. I set colour-changing LED strip lighting on top of the tall units and below the floating storage to wash the walls in a wave of colour."
"There are also blue LED fittings in the ceiling directed across the worktops. The ceiling was high so strong lighting was essential now many different ambiences are possible within this Miami Inspired modernist masterpiece." "
