According to a Residential Energy Consumption Survey, almost 50% of homes in the U.S. now use LED lighting. In addition to using less energy and lasting longer, these lights offer changing color and, in some instances, light that mirrors the natural patterns of the sun.
As intelligent lighting becomes the go-to in luxury homes, LED lighting becomes the standard.
The other trend in lighting design is architectural lighting, specifically, the type that comes from an unseen source. Almost magical, it blends in with its surroundings while casting soft yet stunning illumination.
In 2023, the global leader in smart lighting control introduced the Lutron Lumaris Tape Light. This tunable light was the first of its kind designed to integrate with Lutron lighting control systems. In 2024, it brought color into the fold with its RGB + Tunable White tape.
Now, homeowners can experience beautiful, high-performance, full-spectrum LED lighting that is changeable with the touch of a button and provides brilliant illumination without any visible fixtures.

Transformative Lighting
As humans, our moods change, sometimes from one minute to the next. Our lighting should reflect that. Lumaris tape light offers the ability to change the mood in your home instantly. From golden candlelight infusing a home to brilliant shades of cerulean and indigo filling a room, this lighting provides instantaneous shifts in mood, aesthetics, and design.
Lumaris is ideal under cabinets, in coves, amidst bookshelves, on stairs, behind mirrors, and as toe-kick lighting. Its effects are dazzling and functional, providing the right amount of illumination for varying activities and tasks. It can also automatically shift throughout the day, like the changing light of the sun.
Effortless Control
You can easily manage your lighting from the Lutron app or integrate it into the Control4 home automation platform. Select a new color or change the intensity in an instant. These tape lights dim to 0.1%, creating a soft, flicker-free ambient illumination. Through strategic installation and adjustments, they can also serve as task and accent lighting.
Intelligently controlled, these lights integrate with your entire lighting system, enabling scenes that adjust every light simultaneously. Whether entertaining, dining, or relaxing, the lights transition to create the ideal atmosphere.
Brilliant LED Illumination at Taliesin West
At Wipliance, we had the pleasure of integrating innovative LED lighting solutions into Taliesin West, a National Historic Landmark and one of eight Frank Lloyd Wright sites on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Built in 1937, it took full advantage of natural light.
Today, having undergone several lighting upgrades, our job was to improve the quality of light in the original fixtures and make it effortless to control. This lighting plays an essential role in ensuring visitors enjoy the property to the fullest.
In the drafting studio, we installed Lumaris Tape Light to mimic the same brilliant light that flows through the windows during the day, extending it into the evenings.
As a Lutron Black Diamond dealer, we’re excited to provide this latest technology for our clients, changing the essence, feel, and ease with which they illuminate their homes. To learn more about Lutron Lumaris Tape Light, contact Wipliance.
