PROFESSIONAL LIGHTING DESIGN & ENGINEERING AT CEDIA

PROFESSIONAL LIGHTING DESIGN & ENGINEERING AT CEDIA, DALLAS 2022

CEDIA 2022 in Dallas brought together the best in smart home technology, lighting, and integration—and Adaptive Design Group was proud to be part of the conversation. As pioneers in Professional Lighting Design and Engineering, we took this opportunity to connect with fellow innovators, integrators, and industry leaders to share knowledge, explore new technologies, and reinforce the importance of lighting in the built environment.

The energy at the event was electric. From the show floor to private discussions with key partners, every moment reaffirmed that the future of home design demands integrated lighting solutions that are both artistic and engineered with precision. Lighting is no longer just an afterthought—it’s foundational to comfort, ambiance, and architectural storytelling.

Glenn Merlin Johnson and the Adaptive team enjoyed deep conversations around dimming control systems, The Merlin Light Projector, lighting automation, and the importance of coordinating with architects and designers from the earliest planning stages. These insights are essential to delivering the kind of seamless results clients expect from today’s high-end builds.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, asked questions, and contributed to meaningful dialogue. We’re already looking forward to the next one.

Let’s bring intelligent lighting to your next project.
