Inspired by the Past
Beautiful elegance and heritage design define this keypad. It evokes a sense of timelessness with traditional aesthetics and masterful craftsmanship. The Aviena keypad is crafted in solid brass and features a modern toggle. Its sculpted curvilinear form is composed of flowing curves and organic shapes—a perfect example of beauty in simplicity. Up to four toggle switches let you manage lights, motorized shades or draperies, temperature, and other third-party smart devices effortlessly.
This keypad is an excellent choice for those who love the feel of a traditional switch but want a look that aligns with modern homes and supports smart home functionality.
Customized for the Present
Like most things Lutron, these keypads can be customized, engraved with text or icons that define their use. For instance, some use this keypad to set the ideal lighting and climate in the morning and evening, as well as adjust the shades.
We can program the keypad to perform these functions and engrave ‘Morning’ above the toggle switch and ‘Evening’ below to guide the user to its correct setting.
Aviena also complements high-end aesthetics with seven signature metal finishes that perfectly align with a home’s design, creating a coordinated look no matter the interior style. These metal finishes include:
- Aged Brass
- Aged Bronze
- Brushed Brass
- Satin Nickel
- Bright Chrome
- Graphite
- Champagne
This keypad is also compatible with Lutron’s other premier keypads, such as Alisse.
Designed to Work with Lutron’s Signature Home Automation Platform
The Aviena keypad is designed to work with HomeWorks QSX, the home automation platform created for luxury homes and larger residences. This system controls the lights, shades, and temperature as well as a wide range of third-party systems, such as HVAC, security, and home entertainment AV equipment.
As the brains behind the systems, it controls and communicates with all the connected devices, including the Aviena keypad. These keypads, in essence, offer the touchpoint for interacting with your smart home’s command center, and can be programmed specifically to your lifestyle and preferences.
For instance, you may want the keypad to turn on your whole-home audio system or initiate the changes programmed in your ‘Good Night’ scene, including turning the lights off, lowering the shades, adjusting the thermostat, locking the doors, and arming the security system.
The Combined Power of Lutron Controls and Ketra Illumination
When HomeWorks QSX came out, it was a game-changer for luxury smart homes, enabling more complex projects and allowing effortless control of Ketra’s high-performing LED lighting system. The lighting system includes tunable white and color capabilities, providing customized and breathtaking lighting effortlessly managed.
By integrating with HomeWorks QSX, Josh.ai, the voice assistant designed for smart homes, can now manage this modern lighting system. Having an end-of-the-summer beach-themed barbeque? Tell Josh you’d like the lights in shades of cerulean, aqua, and cyan, and he’ll know you’re talking about the colors of a turquoise sea and clear summer skies.
It's a remarkable world we live in, with innovative technology hitting the market almost daily. We’re excited to provide our clients with the advancements that are making a tremendous difference in their lives.
