The Pinnacle of Luxury: Unveiling New Automated Shading Solutions with Seamless Lighting Integration and Refined Design

Lutron launches new shading innovations that redefine luxury living, offering seamless integration and enhanced control for the ultimate user experience.

Coopersburg, PA, September 05, 2024 - Lutron Electronics, the trusted leader in lighting control systems, motorized window shades, and architectural lighting, is unveiling significant enhancements to its shading portfolio, showcasing their ongoing commitment to delivering exceptional customer experiences. Lutron's latest innovations include the introduction of the Natural Light Optimization (NLO) feature for Roller Shades, a Recessed System for Drapery Tracks, and Palladiom Bracket Finish in Aged Bronze.

Sophisticated Roller Shade Automation with Natural Light Optimization
Lutron’s NLO for roller shades simplifies programming by automatically adjusting shades throughout the day and across seasons based on precise solar positioning. By leveraging a property's latitude, longitude, and window orientation, NLO ensures optimal shade positions—Direct Sun, No Direct Sun, and Night Position—without complex setup. NLO is compatible with HomeWorks QSX and RadioRA 3 systems, and seamlessly integrated with Palladiom, Sivoia, and Triathlon roller shades.

Watch Introducing: Natural Light Optimization
Integrators benefit from four pre-programmed templates that streamline setup and customization, significantly reducing project time and complexity. By using this new feature, professionals can easily customize rooms and windows, adjust offsets, and fine-tune settings to meet specific client preferences. NLO not only enhances comfort and protects furnishings from sun damage, but also reduces glare and optimizes views—all accessible at the touch of a button or through the Lutron app for daily adjustments and personalized comfort.

The Elegance of Motion: Transforming Spaces with Recessed Drapery Systems
Lutron’s recessed drapery system provides flawlessly smooth ceilings with drapery that appears to float in midair, creating a crisp, minimalist aesthetic that harmonizes seamlessly with any architectural design. Experience best-in-class automation with intuitive button-press or pull-to-start motorization, bringing drama and elegance to any home. The system’s components are designed for seamless integration in new construction, ensuring a refined and sophisticated finish.



“As shades continue to healthily contribute to the integrator’s bottom line, Lutron will continue to develop the tools, hardware, and software necessary to maintain and grow a robust motorized window treatment business,” said Ben Bard, Vice-President of Lutron’s luxury residential business.

Elevating Palladiom Shades with Timeless Aged Bronze Finish for Shade Brackets and Hembar End Caps
The Palladiom Shade family first brought exposed roller shades to Lutron in 2017. A new addition to the line is Aged Bronze brackets, crafted from solid brass, ensuring refined and timeless aesthetic. This finish undergoes a meticulous, multi-step process—precision-machined, hand-brushed, and carefully aged—to achieve a timeless look. Available for both wired and wire-free Palladiom shades, the Aged Bronze brackets and coordinating Architectural Bottom Bar end caps are designed to be seen and admired, offering versatility and an exquisite coordination that underscores their visual appeal.



Lutron’s NLO for Roller shades, Recessed System for Drapery Track, and the Palladiom Bracket Finish in Aged Bronze will be available in late 2024. With these innovations, Lutron empowers integrators to offer their clients what is possible in luxury living, ensuring that each space not only meets but exceeds the highest standards of both aesthetics and performance.
