What is HomeWorks?
Created specifically for luxury residences, HomeWorks is Lutron’s flagship control system. Recognised worldwide as the gold standard for high-end homes, it delivers exceptional convenience, elegance, and performance. Now available in Japan, HomeWorks boasts decades of proven innovation, a range of premium design options, and seamless integration with other home systems.
Just as discerning homeowners look to brands such as Miele and Gaggenau to create a luxury kitchen, Lutron HomeWorks is widely regarded as an essential feature of a luxury residence in many markets.

Why You Need Lutron HomeWorks
Enhanced lifestyle, Living and Convenience

Imagine walking into a room with 20 different light switches and not remembering which one controls what. With Lutron HomeWorks, that frustration disappears. Instead of adjusting each light individually, you can trigger a perfectly designed scene like “Evening” or “Entertain”, with a single button press.
For larger properties, this becomes even more essential. There’s no need to walk through multiple rooms switching lights on and off. Everything can be managed centrally from elegant keypads, touchscreens, or even your smartphone.
Another common misconception is that “smart lighting” means complicated controls. In fact, it’s the complete opposite. Working alongside lighting designers and architects, HomeWorks systems are intentionally designed to reflect how spaces are actually used:
- One button activates a scene instead of endless manual adjustments
- Lights can be automated by time of day or occupancy, such as motion-activated hallway lighting
- Night-time settings reduce brightness or keep only floor-level lights on for safety
- Exterior lighting runs on smart timers that automatically adjust with the seasons
With HomeWorks, lighting becomes not only simpler but also smarter, creating comfort, convenience, and a touch of luxury.
Return on Investment
Smart home readiness is increasingly a selling point in luxury and modern properties. Like underfloor heating or a private cinema, HomeWorks is a premium feature that enhances both lifestyle and market value, particularly attractive in competitive real estate markets.
A smart lighting control system ensures that lights are only used when needed, thereby reducing wasted energy. When paired with energy-efficient LED fixtures, it can significantly reduce both energy consumption and utility costs. Automated dimming and shading further optimise efficiency, and shade control reduces solar heat gain, easing the demand on air conditioning.
