Orange County Residence
Santa Ana, CA
If you think the posh homes on the hit TV show The OC are impressive, check out the real thing! This home has one 21st century amenity that its TV counterparts lack: intelligent solid-state lighting by Color Kinetics.

The homeowner was looking for “cool and colorful” lighting to dress up the majestic home’s exterior façade for parties and events, and also just for day to day. Upon a trip to Las Vegas, he was impressed by the exterior lighting of the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino – a popular Color Kinetics installation – and turned to Ron Calabrese of Calabrese Electric to create the dynamic look.

Like the Hard Rock installation, Calabrese chose ColorBlast® 12 to uplight the home’s façade and central rotunda. As pictured above, 8 ColorBlast 12 units encircle the rotunda from a distance of approximately 2 feet (61 cm).   Learn more...
