Light designed for how a space feels, not just how it's lit.
Agrima designs layered lighting — ambient, task, and accent — as scenes on the same control system as the rest of your home, so the room shifts from morning to evening without you touching a switch.
Watch the light shift through a day.
Drag the slider or hit play — tunable white lighting moves from cool and bright at midday to warm and dim by night, following the same circadian curve we design into a real install. Or try it in a real room, with dimming, colour and motorised curtains →
Illustrative — real circadian curves are tuned to each room's orientation, use, and fixture spec.
Layers, not fixtures.
One room, lit five ways. Start with how most homes are lit today, then switch on each layer to see what it does on its own.
Diffused: how most homes are lit today
Square ceiling panels flood the room with flat, cool-white light. Everything is equally bright, so nothing stands out: the stone looks flat and grey, and colours look washed out.
General (Ambient)
The base layer. Small, glare-free downlights in warm white give even, comfortable light with soft shadows. It is what the room falls back to when nothing else is doing the work.
Task
Focused light exactly where something happens: the reading chair and the coffee table. Bright enough to read by, contained enough that it does not wash out the rest of the room.
Indirect
The fitting disappears. A ceiling cove bounces warm light off the ceiling, so you see the glow and never the source. Calm, and kind to the eyes late in the evening.
Accent (Ambience)
Deliberate drama. Narrow beams graze the stone so its texture shows, and pick out the sculpture and the art, while everything else stays dim. The eye goes exactly where it is meant to.
Same room, same furniture: only the light changes. A real design combines the layers and sets each one by scene.
Lumens tell you almost nothing. Here's what actually matters.
Fixture spec sheets are built to make you compare the wrong number. A lighting design is judged on what actually lands on the surface, how a room's real colors and skin tones read under it, and how your body responds to it after dark — three things a lumens rating on a box never tells you.
Light works on the body, not just the eyes.
Illuminance, not output
Light lands where you cook, read and work, so the counter is bright without the whole room glaring.
Technical detail
Lux — lumens per square metre at the work surface — is what a countertop or desk actually needs. Two fixtures rated at identical lumens can put very different lux on that surface depending on beam angle, optics, and mounting height. That's a calculation, not a spec-sheet comparison.
Color rendering, beyond CRI
Wood, stone, fabric and skin look like themselves, never dull, grey or greenish.
See it: the same fruit under low and high CRITechnical detail
CRI (Ra) averages just 8 pastel test colors — it can look fine on a spec sheet and still render skin tones, wood, and saturated fabric poorly. TM-30, the current ANSI/IES standard, scores fidelity (Rf) and saturation (Rg) separately across 99 colors — what we actually check before specifying a fixture for stone, wood, or upholstery-heavy interiors.
Circadian effect, not just color
Crisp and bright by day, warm and calm by evening, so the house helps you wind down.
See it: watch the light shift through a dayTechnical detail
Warm-to-cool tuning is only half of circadian lighting. The melanopic ratio of a fixture's spectrum — how strongly it stimulates the eye's non-visual receptors — is what actually drives the effect, and two fixtures at the same color temperature can differ meaningfully here. Color temperature alone doesn't tell you which one will keep a room feeling alert at 7pm.
Glare, not just brightness
You see the light, not the bulb: no harsh points staring back at you from the ceiling.
See it: unshielded vs glare-controlledTechnical detail
A room can hit every lux target on paper and still feel harsh to sit in. Unified Glare Rating (UGR) predicts this — it's a function of fixture luminance, room surface reflectance, and viewing angle together, which is why the same downlight disappears in one ceiling height and glares straight into your eyes in another.
Every layer, one control system.
Tunable white
Color temperature that shifts through the day — cooler for focus, warmer for evenings.
Scene programming
"Morning," "Dinner," "Movie Night," "Diwali" — one tap, every fixture in the room adjusts together.
Astronomic scheduling
Facade and landscape lighting that follows real sunrise/sunset times automatically.
Automation-integrated
Same keypads and app as climate, shades, and security — no separate lighting-only app.
