Enhancing Entertainment Spaces in Orange County, CA with Lutron

In the luxury homes of Newport Coast, Laguna Beach, and Corona del Mar, entertaining is more than a lifestyle—it’s an art form. Whether you’re hosting sunset cocktails, watching a film in your private theater, or gathering guests for a weekend dinner party, your home should set the perfect mood at the touch of a button. That’s where Lutron lighting and motorized shade control comes in.

At Oasis Smart Homes, we help clients design entertainment spaces that are visually stunning, technologically seamless, and entirely effortless—with Lutron HomeWorks systems integrated into everything from great rooms and media lounges to outdoor terraces and home theaters.

Scene Control That Matches the Moment

One of Lutron’s most powerful features for entertaining is scene control. With a single touch, you can activate lighting and shades across multiple rooms to fit the mood.

Popular entertainment scenes include:

• Entertain – Soft ambient lighting, accent lighting for art, and open shades for natural views
• Cocktail Hour – Warm dimming in the kitchen, bar area, and outdoor lounge
• Movie Night – Blackout shades lower, recessed lights dim to 20%, pathway lights remain softly lit

These scenes can be triggered from custom-engraved keypads, your smartphone, or voice commands through platforms like Josh.ai, Savant, or Control4.

Perfect Lighting for Home Theaters and Media Rooms

Lighting can make or break the atmosphere in a media space. Lutron offers:

• Layered lighting control: recessed, cove, wall sconces, and step lighting
• Dimmable, flicker-free LEDs for immersive viewing
• Motorized blackout shades for complete light control

We work with your builder or designer to create home theater environments that blend cinematic performance with architectural elegance.

Adaptive Lighting for Indoor–Outdoor Entertaining

In Orange County, entertaining often flows from the great room to the patio, pool, or outdoor kitchen. Lutron extends your lighting control outside so you can:

• Set outdoor dining lights to a preset scene
• Highlight landscaping or pool features with dimmable circuits
• Use sensors or schedules to turn off lights automatically after events

Your guests will never know where the automation ends and the experience begins.

Voice & App Control for Total Flexibility

When you’re hosting, convenience matters. Lutron lets you control lights and shades with:

• Voice assistants like Josh.ai or Alexa
• The Lutron app or your integrated home control system
• Custom keypads designed for quick access to the scenes you use most

No searching for switches or remotes—just seamless ambiance, always in your control.

Shade Control for Light, Privacy, and Style

Motorized shades are essential in entertainment spaces where lighting and privacy need to be adaptable. With Lutron, you can:

• Lower sheer shades to reduce glare without blocking views
• Drop blackout shades for theater time or intimate dining
• Sync shades with lighting scenes for instant mood-setting

We help you choose shade fabrics that complement your interiors and perform beautifully, even with expansive windows or glass doors.
