High-end interior lighting design and control, and landscape lighting designed and installed by the same studio. Take either on its own — or run both from one keypad.
One photometric point of view: light the thing worth looking at, hide the source, and never make anyone hunt for a switch.
It starts with a reflected ceiling plan, not a fixture catalog. Ambient, task, accent, and decorative layers laid out room by room against ceiling depth, wall finish, and beam angle — then run through a control platform sized to the house.
Tunable white from 1800K to 6500K lets a kitchen sit at 4000K in the morning and 2200K at nine at night, on a curve that follows the sun instead of a schedule you have to think about. Three scenes per room is a starting point; most homes settle at six. Morning. Cooking. Evening. Film. Dinner Party. Sleep. One engraved keypad at the wall, one phrase to a voice assistant, or one tap in the app. We scale the platform to the project — Lutron RA3 when lighting is the whole job or the retrofit needs to stay tidy.
Designed and installed by us, start to finish. A night walk comes first, then a plan drawn to the plantings and the architecture — not a row of fixtures marching down the drive.
Solid brass and copper that patinas instead of failing. Low-voltage 12V runs on transformers sized with headroom for trees to grow into, direct-burial wire, and boring under walks and drives so nothing gets cut back out later. Uplight on specimen trees, grazing across stone and brick, moonlighting down through the canopy, wash on steps, walls, pool coping and water features. An astronomic timeclock keeps it on sunset year-round, and dimming zones land on the same keypad and app as the interior — or run entirely on their own if the inside stays exactly as it is.
Interior and landscape are separate scopes, priced and delivered separately. Neither one requires the other.
Plenty of homes take the inside first and add the grounds two seasons later; plenty do the reverse, because the landscape was already being torn up. When they do run together, most of it happens without anyone touching anything. An astronomic schedule follows sunset as it drifts an hour and a half across the year, so the path and facade come up on their own. Away drops the house to zero and holds the exterior until midnight. Welcome brings the drive, entry, and foyer up as the gate opens. Dinner Party reaches past the glass so the yard doesn't go black the moment the sun does. If you'd rather press something there's an engraved keypad at the wall, a phrase to a voice assistant, or the app — but nothing depends on it.
The same schedule drives color temperature, which is where lighting stops being decoration. Cooler, brighter light through the morning and a slow slide toward 2200K after dinner tracks the daylight the body evolved to read; the research on circadian lighting associates it with falling asleep faster, steadier energy through the afternoon, and better sleep overall. We set the curve at commissioning and it runs quietly for years — nothing to maintain, one number to call when a lamp finally goes out.
Every project begins with a walkthrough — and for landscape, a night walk. The first hour is on the studio.
EchoHaus designs and installs lighting control and landscape lighting throughout Edmond, Nichols Hills, Deer Creek, Arcadia, Piedmont, Oakdale, and greater Oklahoma City — and we’ll travel beyond the metro for the right project.
