EXPERTISE
One lighting partner.
Complete responsibility.
From placement and fixture selection to controls and final tuning, Vaestro takes responsibility for the lighting decisions a finished space depends on.
01
Spatial lighting design
We shape the relationship between light, architecture, materials, and daily life. Placement, distribution, color, and intensity begin with how the space should feel.
02
Fixture specification
We select light sources, optics, finishes, and accessories for a defined role, considering color quality, glare, dimming, and compatibility with the full design.
03
Fixture procurement
We coordinate ordering, availability, and delivery with the project schedule, reviewing substitutions against the original design intention.
04
Lighting controls
We develop an intuitive control strategy and coordinate fixture, driver, dimmer, and system compatibility before installation.
05
Programming & scene development
We translate daily routines and activities into considered scenes, transitions, and schedules, making the system comfortable to use.
06
Project coordination
We connect lighting decisions with the architect, interior designer, contractor, and electrical team so drawings, products, and site requirements stay aligned.
07
Installation oversight
We review lighting-related installation details and coordinate adjustments with the installing trades to protect placement, integration, and performance.
08
Focusing, tuning & commissioning
We refine aim, intensity, scenes, and control behavior in the completed space. Final adjustments bring the design into the experience of the room.
THE WAY WE WORK
A clear path through the project.
Each responsibility has a place in the project schedule. The Approach explains when decisions are made and how we work with your team.
Motorized interior and exterior shades can coordinate daylight with electric light; audio design and installation can complement the same environment.
LIGHTING TECHNOLOGIES
Capability, considered
for your life.
From beautifully resolved dimming to a coordinated daily lighting cycle, the right level of capability depends on the space and the people using it. These are progressive possibilities, tailored to each residence.
01 / CONSIDERED LIGHT
The essentials,
exceptionally resolved.
High color quality, comfortable dimming, thoughtful placement and intensity, and glare-conscious specification. Fixtures and controls are selected for compatibility and applicable code requirements.
A strong foundation for visual comfort and everyday use.
02 / ADAPTIVE LIGHT
Light that responds
to the way you live.
Building on that foundation, tunable-white or dim-to-warm technology, activity-based scenes, automated schedules, and coordinated daylight and shades allow light to change with use and time of day.
For spaces that need different moods and functions throughout the day.
03 / CIRCADIAN-SUPPORTIVE LIGHT
Consider the
complete daily cycle.
Light helps synchronize the body’s circadian rhythms—the roughly 24-hour cycles that influence sleep, wakefulness, and other daily functions.
A coordinated environment considers spectrum, intensity, timing, and duration: appropriately timed brighter daytime light, with warmer, lower illumination in the evening. Daylight, electric light, controls, programming, and automated shades work together.
Designed to support natural daily rhythms, with visual comfort and wellbeing in mind.
CALIFORNIA / PERFORMANCE & POSSIBILITY
Compliance is the baseline.
California establishes the performance baseline. Vaestro designs beyond compliance for comfort, adaptability and the human experience of light.
Applicable requirements may include high-efficacy sources, JA8 certification, dimming and automatic-off controls, compatibility, and documentation. California’s energy code does not mandate circadian lighting.
