Color Select® Tunable White
Lighting is personal.
Individuals are at their best when they can control the quality, color, and quantity of light to suit the types of activities they’re performing. USAI Lighting Color Select® proprietary tunable white LED technology unlocks the potential of Personalized Lighting®, replacing a variety of sources as well as recreating the feel of natural daylight with one fixture type. Color Select® tunable white light products enhance the way people live, work, and play. It allows the end-users to change the LED color temperature from 6000K down to 2200K (and everything in between), while independently adjusting intensity from 100% down to 0.1%
What is Personalized Lighting?
It’s About Choices
Personalized Lighting changes as your activities and mood change. As you work, as you play, as you create, as you live. USAI has embraced technology advancements and change by creating lighting products that support what you do. Choose the USAI Lighting color technology that’s right for you.

Using Color Select® tunable white LED light technology and its ability to mimic the sun’s natural light, Loop Lighting designed personalized light scenes with varying color temperatures and intensities to allow the space to visually evolve and evoke emotional responses aligned with daily events occurring throughout the food hall, and coffee/wine bar – morning to evening. Layered in with dynamic lighting accents, John Newman and project manager, Esra Aras created an inviting space that changed every time you entered through the course of the day yet provided a consistent daily light cycle to provide familiarity.
Creating a Flexible Environment with Lighting to Enhance
How We Work, Play, Live and Thrive
Lighting for a gentle wake up as people slowly saunter in. The food hall is partially opened serving coffee and teas, setting up for full service. A morning sunrise is the inspiration with tunable white light set with an incandescent-like warmth of 2700K. Dynamic orange-amber accent lights are layered in.
7AM. Breakfast.
Food hall is fully opened and a warm neutral white of 2900K shines throughout the space.
12PM. Lunch.
As lunch time arrives, dynamic orange tonalities give way to lighter blue, clear skies. White light is tuned up to an energizing cool white with 3700K.
Afternoon sets in and the color temperature begins to slowly transition down to 3200K. Light blue dynamic light deepens into saturated blues to create an ambient layer.
5 – 6PM. Happy Hour.
It’s the end of the day and people are ready to unwind with conversation and a drink at the bar. White light returns to the warmth of 2700K and dynamic light is layered in with festive accents of rich magentas to create a social environment.
6PM – 10PM. Lounge.
The space transforms into a bar scene with white light tuned down to candlelit levels, accented with intense dynamic lighting to create a space perfect for mingling and buying a few rounds of artisanal cocktails for your colleagues and clients.
