Concept · design · integration · service. Matrix Digital Systems designs Lutron architectural lighting and motorized shade systems for luxury residences across Orange County and the OC coast.
Matrix Digital Systems designs Lutron architectural lighting and motorized shade systems for luxury residences in Orange County, California — Lutron Homeworks QSX, RA3, Ketra tunable-white, and Palladiom keypads with motorized shading — circadian scenes, astronomical sun tracking, and finish-matched keypads coordinated with the interior designer — with dispatch from our Fountain Valley studio.
Purpose-built lighting and shades for Orange County and the OC coast.
OC lighting design has to solve for extreme west-facing sun on Pacific-view homes and the tall, glass-heavy architecture of Newport Coast and Corona del Mar. Our Lutron Homeworks projects specify astronomical scenes that pre-close west-facing shades before the harshest afternoon sun, tunable-white Ketra fixtures for open living areas that need to shift from cool morning to warm evening light, and Palladiom keypads engraved to match cabinet hardware.
Matrix Digital Systems dispatches from our Fountain Valley studio to Orange County and the OC coast — including Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Newport Coast, Corona del Mar, Coto de Caza, and Dana Point. We handle lighting design review, tunable-white fixture selection, keypad schedule and engraving, motorized shade layout, and scene programming. Engagement range for lighting and shades in Orange County is typically $25,000–$300,000+.

Orange County + lighting and shades — frequently asked.
How do you handle floor-to-ceiling ocean-view glazing?
Motorized shading on every zone facing west or southwest, driven by astronomical scenes that pre-position blinds before the harshest sun. For very tall spans we specify Lutron Sivoia QS or QMotion long-drop motors, which are quiet enough to move mid-conversation without notice.
Can you integrate landscape lighting for Newport Coast projects?
Yes — landscape and outdoor architectural lighting integrates with the same Lutron system as interior fixtures. Newport Coast projects commonly include path lights, tree uplights, driveway lights, and pool lighting all coordinated under one scene structure.
Do you work with the interior designers in Corona del Mar and Laguna?
Yes — we handle keypad schedules and engraving specifications directly with the interior designer's cabinet and hardware selections. Palladiom keypads in matched finishes (nickel, bronze, brass, matte black) coordinate with the designer's palette rather than fighting it.
Is Matrix Digital Systems a Lutron dealer?
Yes. We're an authorized Lutron dealer installing Lutron Homeworks QSX, RA3, and Palladiom keypads across California and Central Texas. We also install Ketra and Crestron Cameo lighting where the design calls for it.
What is circadian lighting?
Circadian lighting uses tunable-white or full-spectrum fixtures that shift color temperature across the day — cooler and brighter in the morning, warmer and dimmer in the evening — to support natural sleep and wake cycles. Ketra and Lutron Homeworks with tunable-white fixtures deliver this out of the box.
Do you coordinate keypad finishes with the interior designer?
Yes. Lutron Palladiom keypads are available in engraved finishes — brass, bronze, nickel, matte black — that match the home's cabinet pulls and hardware. We handle keypad schedules alongside the millwork drawings.
