Sleek Modern Lighting Controls

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Palladium Bespoke Metals Collection Features Multiple Finishes

— August 25, 2021 — Art & Design
The Palladium Bespoke Metals Collection gives lighting controls a modern textured finish. Designed as a collaboration between Lutron Electronics and Focus SB, the collection is designed for Lutron's lighting keypads. Interior designers can match the control panels to the interior decor and other fixture accents for a cohesive design.

Consumers can choose among a range of 19 standard textured finishes like tree bark, antique metal, and cork. Each texture is available in various colors, such as aged bronze and nickel silver. Focus SB manufacturers apply the finishes to Lutron ELectronics' HomeWorks QS Wired Palladiom raw brass faceplate kit. In addition, designers have the ability to create custom finishes by working closely with Focus SB's project support consultants.
