WAC has launched Colorscaping
smart landscape lighting and control system. This patent-pending line of exterior LED luminaires is designed and engineered to illuminate landscapes with tunable white light and an unlimited color palette.
“Colorscaping will transform your everyday world into an outdoor wonderland of illumination,” says WAC CEO Dirk Wald. “Imagine being able to artistically tweak the colors within your landscape lighting, much like a professional photographer uses filters to evoke emotion. This game-changing technology allows you to enhance the natural changes in foliage, control full-color gamut LED arrays to modify the intensity of certain wavelengths within the white light, and create a personalized, dynamic illuminating experience.”
Utilizing RGBWW technology, Colorscaping will make landscapes pop with pure white light ranging from warm 2700K to cool 6500 Kelvin. For outdoor entertaining and nighttime activities, warm illumination delivers an inviting vibe and relaxing atmosphere for a quiet evening in an outdoor kitchen, mimics the comforting glow of a campfire and brings out the beauty of the stonework and masonry. For safety, security, a cooler white light highlights architectural details and increases visibility in your outdoor space.
“When you’re the artist, you can paint with light- creating the right mix of warm and cool illumination around the property to generate maximum impact and bring out the natural beauty and hues of trees and shrubbery,” Wald says. “Tune the white light to make evergreen trees ‘greener,’ Japanese maples ‘redder,’ and white houses ‘whiter.’ Warm lighting will make a brick home or wooden structure more inviting.”
Create drama with various layering and other techniques using tunable white fixtures. Position luminaires in tall trees to develop a beautiful moonlighting effect on the ground and watch shadows change with the wind. Focus on architectural elements, sculptures or fountains with strategically placed fixtures to create silhouette designs. Place luminaires at ground level to evoke the vibrant colors in the flower garden or illuminate climbing vines on an arbor or gazebo.
“Elevate your landscape with superlative tunable white and vivid, full-color spectrum technologies,” Wald adds. “Colorscaping creates endless possibilities for an awe-inspiring outdoor space.”
New and existing landscape fixtures are installed quickly using the Smart Transformer Control Panel, which connects fixtures directly for immediate testing while cycling through preset tunable white and primary colors at various intensity levels. Offered with 150-watt and 300-watt capacities, the smart transformer enables robust wiring, a shielded ethernet cable and a surge protector against power surges and voltage spikes. The transformer eliminates any confusion in the field with a unique Discovery process— identifying each Colorscaping fixture and location so the luminaires can be added, changed or paired with the appropriate transformer — with the push of a button. Integration with many major control platforms is an alternative to app-based control.
Colorscaping allows users to customize lighting to suit every mood and special occasion, whether to create a holiday scene or display favorite team colors in lights. Select custom colors for entertainment and special events or color-tune white light to complement gardens and architecture with a discriminating aesthetic. With a dimming range from 100% down to 1%, clients are able to create the perfect ambience and the ultimate sensory experience.
Colorscaping integrates a full selection of WAC Landscape Lighting fixtures, including adjustable accent, wall wash and path lights, hardscape, tape light and with existing landscape lighting fixtures, too.
Seamless control of Colorscaping fixtures is available with the user-friendly MyWAC App using smartphones, tablets and smart home devices like Google Home and Amazon Alexa. Users can individually address and operate each Colorscaping luminaire independently or as a part of a group or favorite lighting scene. Presets are included, allowing one to change their lighting scheme. Colorscaping fixtures can be assigned to various schedules, for every day of the year based on daylight savings, dates, times or dynamic patterns like sunrise and sunset. Users can set the color, intensity and behavior of individual fixtures or groups of lights to suit different moods, events or preferences from anywhere in the world.
The system can also be controlled by the WAC WallStation, an interior control interface installed on a wall or fixed surface. The WallStation features four pre-configured scene buttons, a dedicated on/off button, and dimming capability and is fully customizable via the MyWAC App. Program each of the four scenes within the app, then use the wired Wall Station to control them via the local Wi-Fi network.
