- Figure out what kind of lighting scenes you want to have. Ex. If you find yourself dimming certain lights when you want to relax . Then have your smart home installer create a "relax" button that turns off any unnecessary lights and dims the ones you want. REMEMBER when designing your scenes less is more.
