Adaptive Design Group’s signature approach—Layers of Lighting—is where artistry meets precision to create breathtaking environments that engage and inspire. When you step into a beautifully designed space, like this stunning pool and hot tub area, lighting is never just one-dimensional. Instead, it’s a carefully crafted blend of multiple layers, each serving a unique purpose while harmonizing to create an immersive experience. So, how many layers of light can you count here?
In architectural lighting design, we recognize eight essential layers that work together to elevate every space:
Architecture: Lighting that highlights the structure’s form and unique design elements.
Decorative: Fixtures that double as art, adding personality and style.
Art: Specialized lighting to showcase paintings, sculptures, or other focal points.
Path: Guiding the way safely with subtle illumination along walkways or stairs.
Task: Focused lighting for functional activities like reading, cooking, or poolside relaxation.
Interior Design: Lighting that complements furniture, fabrics, and finishes.
View: Managing natural or scenic views through lighting control and balance.
Exterior: Lighting that enhances outdoor features and landscaping.
This poolside setting is a perfect example of how Adaptive Design Group integrates these layers seamlessly. From soft exterior lighting that enhances the natural surroundings, to the carefully placed task lights around seating areas, to the decorative fixtures that add style and mood—every detail is intentional. The result is a captivating space where light feels natural, inviting, and luxurious.
Our collaboration with architects, interior designers, and clients ensures that each layer of light fulfills its role, working in concert rather than competition. From concept to completion, this artistic layering defines the experience, transforming the ordinary into extraordinary.

Lighting by Design, Not by Accident
Lighting isn’t just a technical detail—it’s an artform that shapes how a space is experienced. At Adaptive Design Group, we don’t leave illumination to chance. We approach lighting with purpose, crafting systems that elevate architectural details, enhance ambiance, and seamlessly integrate with the way you live.
From the initial concept to the final circuit, our team works closely with architects, designers, and homeowners to deliver lighting design that feels intentional, not incidental.

Luxury homes deserve lighting systems that are as sophisticated and adaptable as the spaces they serve. With our proprietary Adaptive Method®, we combine aesthetics, technology, and user-friendly control to create harmony between architecture and atmosphere.

Cybersecurity for the Connected Life – Home & Office
In today’s connected environments, smart lighting and integrated AV systems are just the beginning. With every new device comes another potential entry point—making network security not just optional, but essential.
Plug & Protect is the ethos behind guardDog Solutions’ approach to residential cybersecurity. With their Fido device, a simple plug-in installation can shield the entire home or office network from malicious digital threats.

When Glenn Merlin Johnson served as business development manager for guardDog, he brought this forward-thinking solution into the spotlight at CEDIA Expo’s Launchpad—where emerging technologies meet the industry’s most innovative minds. In that role, Glenn helped highlight how tools like Fido could give integrators and homeowners alike a practical layer of security for everything happening beyond the physical walls of the space.
