The workflow
From a sentence to a lighting brief
Describe the room in plain language and Lumenwire builds a structured plan across three lighting layers, works out the switch, socket and smart-control logic, and produces visuals you can share with a qualified electrician.
Step 1 · Chat
Describe the room
The studio asks the things an electrical brief actually needs: room type, size and ceiling height, daylight and orientation, what you do in the room, whether you can rewire, how smart you want to go and the mood you're after.
New-build kitchen-living“New-build open-plan kitchen-living, want layered lighting with dimmable zones and under-cabinet strips, warm in the evening but bright for cooking.”
Dim home office“Home office that's too dim for video calls and gives me eye strain — tell me what lighting to add and where the switches should go.”
Rental movie nights“Renting, can't rewire the walls, want smart plug-in lighting and a cosy movie-night scene I can trigger from my phone.”
Step 2 · Structured plan
Layers, controls and scenes
You get ambient, task and accent layers with target lumens and colour temperature, the number of control zones, socket logic, a smart-device list, scene presets and a rewire-vs-plug-in verdict — plus a clear note that all positions are for a qualified electrician to confirm.
Step 3 · Visual deliverables
Five images per room
Scene render — day
A bright, cool, task-lit view so you can judge how the room performs when you're working in it.
Scene render — evening
The same room in a warm, dimmed evening mood to show the difference layered lighting makes.
Reflected ceiling & fixture layout
Concept positions for downlights, pendants and LED strips with the layers labelled. A planning reference, not a construction drawing.
Switch & socket map
Control-zone logic and point positions, marked for a qualified electrician to confirm on site.
Smart-device map
How smart dimmers, sensors and a hub connect, and which scene each control triggers.
Colour-temperature & lumens guide
Target Kelvin and lumens per zone so lighting choices stay measurable.
Step 4 · Day-to-Night reveal
Watch the room change
Studio subscribers generate a short day-to-night lighting reveal — the same room moving from bright daytime work light to a warm evening scene — exported in 16:9 and 9:16 to keep, share or send to an electrician.
