Most showrooms demonstrate intelligent lighting on a demo wall or in a compact display space. Regent5 built two large, complete rooms instead, and everything in them is interactive. The Lounge is furnished as a real family and living space, with the sofas, rugs, art, timber, and decorative objects an actual room contains. The Office is a deliberately clean workspace. Ketra, Rania, and Lumaris are installed and running in both, so you can walk the rooms, drive the scenes yourself, and see how each source renders the same stone, the same timber, and the same fabric at the same intensity in two different kinds of room. That distinction matters because a light source that flatters a lounge does not automatically suit a desk, and an architect specifying a whole house has to resolve exactly that question.
The three Lutron intelligent lighting brands form a clear hierarchy, and the showroom exists to make it visible. Ketra is full spectrum, with 16.7 million colors and the highest color rendering in the range. Rania applies Ketra's color science to white light only, tunable from 1,800K to 5,500K. Lumaris covers 1,800K to 4,000K plus RGB tape, and it is the one that runs on RadioRA 3 as well as HomeWorks. Both rooms run on Lutron HomeWorks QSX, so the showroom doubles as a working HomeWorks lighting control demonstration: the keypads, scenes, and app control you operate here are the same platform we install. Reading spec sheets is one thing. Standing in a furnished room while all three sources render the same materials is another, and it is the fastest way we know to land on the right specification for a project.
The showroom runs premium Lutron shades and drapery alongside handwoven Conrad shades. Conrad and Coastal Source are the two Lutron Native by Design brands in our portfolio, built to run natively on Lutron control. Keypad walls display Lutron and Control4 control styles, so finish, engraving, and button layout decisions happen with the actual hardware in hand rather than from a PDF. For a designer specifying window treatments and wall controls across a whole house, an hour here settles decisions that otherwise stretch across weeks of shipped samples.
The design center is not limited to lighting. Full Savant and Control4 automation runs throughout. Verkada, Deep Sentinel, and UniFi security systems operate live with AI detection and license plate recognition. The audio and video side covers Sonus faber and Coastal Source speakers, Sonos, and large format TVs, and Neat video conferencing rooms serve business visitors. Seeing these systems working together in one building is the point: the same integration discipline that runs the showroom runs our projects.
Interior designers and lighting designers bring clients to compare sources on real materials. Architects use the two rooms to resolve specifications before drawings are finalized. Builders and owner's representatives use it to align a project team on what a lighting decision actually involves. Homeowners simply come to see what their house could feel like. There is no charge to use the showroom, and no obligation attached to a visit.
Contact us to schedule a visit and tell us what you are working on. Bring drawings if you have them, or just bring the question you are trying to answer. A session in the two lighting rooms typically walks through the three sources at different intensities and color temperatures on the materials in the room, then whatever else the project touches: shading, keypads, automation, security, or audio. You leave with a clear direction, and if the honest answer is that a simpler system serves your project better, that is the answer you will get.
The design center is at 1300 Industrial Road, Suite 12 in San Carlos, minutes off Highway 101 in the middle of the Peninsula. Visitors come from Atherton, Palo Alto, Woodside, Hillsborough, Menlo Park, Los Altos, Saratoga, and San Jose, and from San Francisco, where we work across Pacific Heights, Sea Cliff, Presidio Heights, Noe Valley, and Russian Hill. If you are searching for a Lutron Ketra showroom anywhere in the Bay Area, this is the one where all three intelligent lighting sources run side by side in two furnished rooms.
Is there a comprehensive Lutron Ketra showroom in the Bay Area?
Yes. Regent5 operates a Lutron Ketra showroom and design center at 1300 Industrial Road, Suite 12, San Carlos, with two dedicated lighting rooms running Ketra, Rania, and Lumaris side by side. Regent5 is a C10 and C7 licensed contractor, CSLB 1033103.
Is there a Ketra showroom near San Francisco?
The showroom is in San Carlos on the mid-Peninsula, roughly 25 miles south of San Francisco. We serve San Francisco directly, including Pacific Heights, Sea Cliff, Presidio Heights, Noe Valley, and Russian Hill, and the drive to San Carlos is a short one for a decision as permanent as whole-house lighting.
Where can I see Ketra lighting near Atherton, Palo Alto, or Woodside?
The Regent5 showroom in San Carlos is a short drive from Atherton, Palo Alto, Woodside, Hillsborough, Menlo Park, and Los Altos, and reachable from Saratoga and San Jose. Both lighting rooms run Ketra alongside Rania and Lumaris so the three sources can be compared directly.
What is on display at the design center?
Two furnished lighting rooms running Ketra, Rania, and Lumaris; premium Lutron shades and drapery plus handwoven Conrad shades; Lutron and Control4 keypad styles; full Savant and Control4 automation; Verkada, Deep Sentinel, and UniFi security with live AI detection; Sonus faber and Coastal Source speakers, Sonos, and large format TVs; and Neat video conferencing rooms.
Can I compare Ketra, Rania, and Lumaris in person?
Yes, and that comparison is the reason the showroom exists. All three intelligent lighting sources are installed and running in both rooms, on the same materials, so the differences in color rendering, tunable range, and character are visible rather than theoretical.
Do I need an appointment to visit the showroom?
Contact us to schedule a visit. Scheduling lets us have the right specialist ready for what your project touches, whether that is lighting alone or lighting alongside shading, automation, and security.
Is there a charge to use the showroom?
No. There is no charge to use the showroom and no obligation attached to a visit.
Why see the light in person before specifying it?
Because a light source that flatters a lounge does not automatically suit a desk. Spec sheets state color temperature ranges and CRI figures, but how a source renders stone, timber, and fabric in a furnished room is something you can only judge by standing in it. The two rooms exist so that judgment happens before the order is placed, not after the ceiling is closed.
Is there a Lutron HomeWorks lighting control showroom in the Bay Area?
Yes. Both lighting rooms at the Regent5 design center run on Lutron HomeWorks QSX, so a visit is a working HomeWorks demonstration: keypad control, scene programming, and app control operating exactly as they would in your home. Ketra and Rania run only on HomeWorks, which makes the showroom the practical way to evaluate the platform before specifying it.
Is there a Lutron shades and drapery showroom near me?
The Regent5 design center in San Carlos runs premium Lutron shades and drapery you can operate yourself, alongside handwoven Conrad shades, one of the Lutron Native by Design brands. Shading moves with the lighting scenes, so you can see how a room changes when light and shade are controlled together.
Where can I see Lutron lighting fixtures and keypads in person?
The showroom's keypad walls display Lutron and Control4 control styles for finish, engraving, and button layout decisions with the hardware in hand. Lighting fixtures run live in both rooms, including Ketra and Rania downlights, lamps, and tape light, so fixture selection happens under the actual light each one produces.
