Discover the Power of Light as the Seasons Change in Florida

We are deep into the fall season, and our days will grow increasingly shorter from now until the winter solstice on December 21. Ultimately, we’ll have just 10 hours of sunlight in Sarasota on the shortest day of the year. 

For some, this period marks a loss of energy and joie de vivre. Like a bear sensing the changing seasons, the increasing darkness brings a desire to hibernate under the bed covers, awaiting spring. 

Fortunately, technology can help us overcome the lack of daylight. Smart lighting systems have come a long way since the invention of the light bulb over 100 years ago. And yet, many people are still flipping light switches that illuminate a soft or bright white light.

There is a better way, and it’s called smart lighting! It’s changing how we feel, engage, produce, and face the oncoming winter season. Learn more about the possibilities below.
