Creative Systems Lighting to Provide LED Downlighting for Green Resort Community

Creative Systems Lighting (CSL), City of Industry, Calif., provided a range of LED Eco-Downlights for Indigo Park, a resort community of 16 single-family residential dwellings built on 12 acres of land on Kiawah Island, located 21 miles from Charleston, S.C. Indigo Park is expected to be the first community within an exclusive resort to potentially merit LEED Platinum certification from the U.S. Green Building Council. Indigo Park was also recently chosen as the site for construction of HGTV's Dream Home 2013.

CSL supplied a range of 3-inch Eco-Downlight LEDs for the living, kitchen, loft, bedrooms and bathrooms of the homes. The 3-inch Eco-Downlights help lower energy and maintenance costs with an integral proprietary 120V input LED driver that's 90% efficient. High-performance 16W LEDs deliver 50,000 hours at 70% lumen maintenance, and the LED Minis offer 14W LEDs and a 120V-277V input LED driver.

The Indigo Park homes range in size from 2,000 to 3,000 square feet, with a guest cottage option. The building of each home site incorporates the most modern of green practices, including the use of recycled and efficient local materials, water efficiency systems, energy-efficient fixtures, lighting, appliances, heating and cooling systems. These efficiencies and sustainable features add up to significant savings on utility bills and time-consuming maintenance for future homeowners.
