Lighting That Works as Beautifully as It Looks
The team at CAV Integrated Home brings thoughtful lighting design and seamless automation to every corner of your home – indoors, outdoors and everywhere in between.

The right lighting doesn’t just brighten a home, it transforms how people live in it. Morning routines feel calmer, evenings feel more inviting, and outdoor spaces stay welcoming long after sunset. At CAV Integrated Home, the team designs lighting systems that blend beauty, function, and automation, making every space easier to enjoy and effortless to control.
In both new builds and retrofit projects, all lighting can be integrated into an existing automated system or newly automated from the start, making control intuitive and effortless.
Crafting backyards, enhancing stairway safety, and synchronizing interior lights with the rhythm of the day, CAV delivers lighting design that elevates both new construction and modernization projects, ensuring automation enhances comfort, safety, and style.
“Our job is to take something really complicated and make it simple for the homeowner,” says CAV’s Jason Clarke. “We want homeowners, architects, and builders to feel confident that their lighting is not only designed beautifully, but also easy to use and adaptable for the future.”
New Construction and Retrofit Options
While lighting often starts in new builds, CAV emphasizes that upgrades don’t require a full renovation. Retrofit projects allow homeowners to experience smart lighting in existing spaces including upgrading fixtures, adding automation, or layering design without starting from scratch.
For architects and builders, CAV serves as a collaborative partner, offering design support and technical expertise to ensure projects run smoothly. For homeowners, CAV provides education and guidance at every step, ensuring the final system enhances daily living.
Human-Centric Lighting for Daily Life
Lighting also plays a vital role in how people feel and function throughout the day. CAV’s human-centric lighting mimic natural daylight, soft and warm in the morning, bright and cool midday, and dimmed in the evening. These automatic shifts improve comfort, productivity, and relaxation while reducing glare and highlighting architectural details.
Integrated automation ensures these transitions happen seamlessly in the background, with intuitive controls for quick adjustments. In the kitchen, for instance, soft morning light eases the start of the day, brighter midday lighting aids meal prep, and warm evening tones create a relaxed atmosphere.
Smart Outdoor Lighting with Automated Control
Outdoor lighting extends living spaces into the landscape, making patios, pools, and gardens comfortable well after dark. Thoughtful placement highlights trees, pathways, and architectural details, adding both safety and visual interest. Rather than relying on a single source, a layered approach creates depth: softer lights along walkways, focused accents on features, and gentle illumination on walls or greenery to balance brightness and shadow.
Automated control system allow these settings to adapt as the evening unfolds, brighter for gatherings, dimmer for winding down, without the need for manual adjustments. Exterior lighting can also sync with interior scenes, creating a smooth transition from indoors to outside and ensuring the home feels cohesive and inviting at any time of day.
Invisible Step Lighting Combines Safety and Style
Inside, subtle step lighting enhances safety without interrupting design. Fixtures blend invisibly into staircases and hallways, guiding the way at night while keeping the architectural details in focus. The result is a home that feels both secure and beautifully lit, with comfort built into every corner.
“The system’s minimalist design ensures that fixtures remain unobtrusive, allowing the architectural beauty of your space to shine,” says Clarke. Installation is straightforward, with pre-formed plaster fixtures that easily fit into the home’s structure, making it a practical solution for both new construction and enhancement projects.
Lighting Designed for You
CAV’s approach centers on flexibility, adapting to each client’s needs, a single-room update or a full-home system. Their work spans outdoor lighting, step lighting, and human-centric design, with attention to both functionality and everyday use.
“Lighting is the detail that changes everything,” Clarke says. “It affects how we feel, how we use our spaces, and how our homes welcome us every day.”
As CAV Integrated Home continues to grow its presence with both new construction and modernization solutions, one thing remains constant. It’s their commitment to creating lighting systems that make homes smarter, more inviting, and visually appealing.
