Smart Lighting Design · Devon & the Southwest
Beautifully engineered lighting for homes, holiday lets and hospitality venues across Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and Dorset, designed to the standard of a luxury consultant, at a price that makes sense.
We bring together 15 years of deep technical knowledge, direct access to world-class lighting technology, and a genuine passion for design, to create spaces that feel extraordinary to live and work in.
What we do
Whether it's a family home in Devon, a holiday cottage in Cornwall or a restaurant in Somerset, we design and install smart lighting systems that genuinely transform how a space feels.
From a single room glow-up to a full smart home system, we design layered lighting that responds to your daily life. Morning scenes, evening ambience, garden uplighting. All controllable from your phone or voice.
Lighting that earns its keep. Great lighting is one of the most noticed features in reviews, and one of the most overlooked in budgets. We help holiday lets, restaurants and pubs create the atmosphere guests remember and return for.
True smart lighting goes beyond a dimmer switch. We programme scenes, schedules and automations, wake-up graduals, security triggers, away modes, circadian rhythms, using professional protocols that just work, reliably, every time.
Why Southwest Lighting Design
Most lighting consultants charge a fortune for overspecified solutions, or installers simply fit what's in the trade catalogue. We take a different approach, combining serious technical depth with a designer's eye and sourcing relationships that keep costs genuinely competitive.
Based in Seaton, Devon, we work across the entire Southwest. Every project is different. Every consultation is free.
Deep expertise in Tuya, Zigbee, Thread and Matter, the protocols that actually power modern smart lighting.
Direct relationships with manufacturers mean the gap between consumer and commercial grade has never been smaller, and neither has the cost.
Devon-based, Southwest-focused. You deal with one person who designed, specified and installed your system, and can support it long-term.
Light is a design material. We think about shadow, texture, colour temperature and layers, not just lumens and fittings.
Smart Living
For older adults who want to stay independent, and for families who want peace of mind without intrusive cameras, smart lighting is one of the most practical and dignified home technologies available.
The process
No jargon, no surprises. Just a clear, considered process from first conversation to finished installation.
We visit your property or discuss over a call. No obligation. We listen to what you want the space to feel like, not just look like.
We produce a clear lighting plan, fitting positions, colour temperatures, control logic, and a fully itemised quote.
Clean, careful installation, working with your existing electrician or introducing you to our trusted local trades.
We walk you through every scene and schedule. And we're genuinely here if anything needs tweaking afterwards.
Free consultations across Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and Dorset. No obligation.
