LED lighting has caused something of a revolution over the past few years, representing perhaps the greatest technological development in the field since electric lights were first invented in the late 19th century. It has been a gradual revolution, with LED lighting slowly taking over from conventional light bulbs in homes, offices, shops, restaurants and public buildings, as well as cars, but as of yet not making too much impact in outdoor lighting.

This is where Icon The Residences stand out, for not only do we carefully select the right kind of LED lighting for inside the properties and community facilities we create, but in keeping with our penchant for detail in everything from architecture and landscaping to roads and the planting of green zones, we have also introduced LED lighting outdoors, on terraces, in common areas and even roadside lighting.

21st century lighting and energy efficiency

It forms part of a deliberate programme to combine quality of life and aesthetic value with sustainable development and low-energy maintenance. Our designers have analysed every possible lighting aspect in the urbanisation, and found the ideal LED lighting solutions for each, creating 21st century lighting efficiencies throughout.

The interior spaces and gardens of the villas for sale at Icon The Residences will therefore feature ambient LED lighting adapted to each area and requirement, but there will also be automatic lights with movement sensors in halls and stairs, so you don’t have to fumble for light switches in the dark. On the pathways we are installing low-glow atmospheric lighting and the outdoor parking bays will have high lampposts – all with LED lighting.

To achieve a warm, cosy and welcoming glow in the green areas, 2700k LED lights have been selected, all from recognised suppliers that combine technological innovation with quality of build and durable, low-maintenance usage. This will ensure that your exclusive, gated community will not only enjoy low energy consumption with a very low environmental footprint, but that every space (indoor and out) will be well-lit with the latest in new-generation lighting.
