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.

Faces of a Successful Lighting Family Legacy

Merlin Johnson died in May of 2022, and the inspirational impact on his sons’ lives has been profound. He was a Master Mason, AF veteran, master machinist, mechanical/electrical genius, talented lighting designer and founder of Artistic Lighting & Electric. He loved his wife Peggy Jean and encouraged his sons in the art of illumination.

Duane Johnson took over Artistic to become one of the Bay Area’s most experienced and trusted electrical contractors, offering lighting design, lighting control and innovative electrical contracting capabilities.

Glenn Johnson, CEO of Adaptive Design Group, in Utah, provides lighting design for the finest residences and art collections worldwide, wrote The Art of Illumination, and manufactures The Merlin Light, a museum-quality Art Lighting System.

Eric Johnson, principal of EJA Lighting Design, is a nationally award-winning lighting designer, collaborates with world-renown architects and designers, manages projects in the Bay Area, across the U.S and abroad, and has advised many lighting manufacturers and lighting technology companies.

The brothers will forever honor their dad, Merlin Johnson.

Fine Art Deserves Fine Lighting

Fine Art deserves fine Lighting

Fine Art Deserves Fine Lighting

Fine Art deserves fine Lighting. When you invest in artwork that moves you—bold, expressive pieces that stop you in your tracks—it only makes sense to light them with the same level of care and precision. Pamela Nielsen’s vibrant, contemporary work is a perfect example. Her paintings are alive with emotion, texture, and color. To truly appreciate the depth and energy of her art, the lighting must do more than illuminate—it must elevate.

Enter The Merlin Light Framing Projector. This specialized tool allows us to craft a focused, museum-quality beam of light tailored specifically to the dimensions of each piece. The result? Pamela’s creations aren’t just visible—they glow with intention. Every detail stands out in high fidelity, and the artwork can be appreciated at all hours, in any ambient condition.

Lighting fine art is part science, part artistry. It requires a deep understanding of the materials, finish, and mood the artist intended to convey. Our team takes that responsibility seriously. Whether it’s a single cherished piece or a full gallery installation, we ensure the lighting respects and enhances the story the artist tells.

Reach out to illuminate your collection with the intention it deserves.

Beautiful color corrected light

Holy Cow! This striking piece of art is framed in beautiful, color-corrected light thanks to our Merlin Light precision optical framing projector. With accurate beam control and expert placement, we’re able to highlight the finest details of any artwork—down to the textures, brushstrokes, and vibrant color palette the artist intended. In this case, that includes the bold expression of a contemporary cow portrait, and yes, we’re still moo-ved by the results.

Lighting fine art isn’t just about visibility—it’s about reverence. Our approach ensures that the environment around each piece supports the emotional intent of the work itself. That means high CRI (Color Rendering Index) sources, precision optics, and intelligent dimming all working together to preserve color fidelity and draw the eye where it matters most.

The Merlin Light Projector is one of our favorite tools for this kind of detail-forward work. Adjustable, architectural, and remarkably discreet, it allows our design team to sculpt light the same way an artist shapes a canvas.

Whether you’re showcasing personal collections or museum-quality installations, fine lighting is the secret ingredient that transforms a display into a moment.
