Go Outside for Inspiration!

Find Light, Life, and Creativity in the Outdoors

Moondance at Sundance. Sometimes the best inspiration comes from stepping outside and letting nature take the lead. This stunning daytime capture of the moon against the towering peaks of the mountains is a reminder of the power of natural light and the serenity it brings.

At Adaptive Design Group, we believe that both natural and designed light work hand in hand to create spaces that inspire and delight. Just as the sun, moon, and landscape shift throughout the day, thoughtful lighting in a home or outdoor space can change moods, highlight textures, and frame views in ways that elevate daily living.

Whether it’s the glow of early morning sunlight filtering through tall windows, the soft reflection off a pool at dusk, or the carefully designed illumination of a landscape at night, light shapes how we experience our surroundings. Moments like these—when a natural scene stops you in your tracks—serve as reminders of why lighting design matters: it’s about connection, mood, and creating a sense of place.

Let Adaptive Design Group help you capture that feeling in your own home or outdoor space. Reach out today to explore how professional lighting design can transform your environment.

Great Seattle Lighting and Technology Event

An inspiring day in Seattle focused on lighting, design, and the evolving role of smart technology in modern living. Glenn Merlin Johnson joined David Weinstein and industry professionals at a special event hosted in partnership with Beemer Smart Homes and Lutron/Ketra. The gathering brought together a vibrant mix of designers, integrators, builders, and lighting experts to explore the future of high-performance homes and the role of architectural lighting in creating exceptional environments.

At the center of the conversation: how lighting design can elevate not only the look, but also the feel and functionality of a space. From tunable white light and rich color rendering to seamless integration with intelligent dimming systems, the presentations underscored what we already know—great lighting isn’t just beautiful, it’s essential. With Ketra’s advanced LED technology and Lutron’s world-class control systems, attendees saw firsthand how these tools enhance mood, wellness, and architectural intent.

A big thank you to Beemer Smart Homes for hosting, and to everyone who came ready to learn and collaborate. Events like these continue to push the industry forward by reminding us why great design is always a team effort.

Let’s connect and make your next project shine.

Lighting Up Lightapalooza 2 with innovation, leadership, and collaboration. This week in Arizona, Glenn Merlin Johnson joined forces with industry pioneer David Weinstein to help illuminate the future of lighting design at one of the most exciting events in the field. Hosted by the incomparable Tom Doherty, Lightapalooza brings together the best minds in architectural lighting, controls, and integration for a multi-day experience of learning, networking, and inspiration.

Glenn was honored to be a featured guest and panelist, sharing over 35 years of expertise in adaptive lighting design and controls. His session focused on the future of architectural lighting—what it means to design for the human experience, how layered lighting transforms space, and why intelligent dimming systems are central to modern design thinking. Alongside David, they spoke to a packed room of professionals eager to bridge the gap between technology and design excellence.

These events are more than just industry conferences—they’re a chance to inspire, connect, and push the boundaries of what lighting can achieve. We’re proud to represent the best in architectural lighting and grateful to be part of an event that celebrates both innovation and artistry.
