PalladiomQuiet and architectural
See the three personalities side by side
These keypad families share the job of recalling scenes and controlling the home. Their proportions, materials and interaction are intentionally different.
Palladiom
Best for clean, modern interiorsA flush, planar keypad with rectangular buttons and a visually quiet profile.
- Two, three, four or three-button plus raise/lower arrangements
- Dynamic backlighting and custom engraving
- Matching faceplate and buttons create one composed surface
Alisse
Best when the keypad is a design detailCircular buttons, illuminated halos and a hand-finished solid-brass faceplate give Alisse a more decorative presence.
- One to six buttons in single- or double-column layouts
- Eleven signature metal finishes listed by Lutron
- Custom engraving with halo illumination
Aviena
Best for tactile, heritage-inspired roomsA sculpted solid-brass control centered on a weighted, center-retractable mechanical toggle.
- Quick press and extended hold interactions
- One to four toggle arrangements
- Square, horizontal and vertical formats with five listed metal finishes
What changes from one family to another?
| Decision | Palladiom | Alisse | Aviena |
|---|---|---|---|
| Visual language | Minimal, flush and geometric | Round, luminous and jewelry-like | Sculpted, mechanical and familiar |
| Primary interaction | Flat engraved buttons | Circular engraved buttons with halo light | Weighted center-retractable toggle |
| Material expression | Broad architectural finish language | Hand-finished solid brass | Sculpted solid brass |
| Layout options | Two, three, four, or three plus raise/lower | One to six buttons; single or double column | One to four toggles; several faceplate formats |
| Feels most at home in | Modern, transitional and visually restrained spaces | Interiors where metalwork and detail deserve attention | Traditional, heritage or tactile design schemes |
| System context | Professional low-voltage controls for compatible Lutron HomeWorks designs; exact parts and regional availability must be confirmed for the project | ||
Do not choose a premium finish from a screen
Room light, adjacent metalwork and wall material can change how a finish reads. For a custom home, the keypad should be reviewed beside the actual paint, stone, wood, hardware and electrical devices.
Eight details to settle before ordering
Choose the design language early enough to coordinate with the interior and electrical teams.
Review a physical sample in the room's expected daytime and evening light.
Give the household useful choices without turning the wall control into a command center.
Use short, consistent labels such as Welcome, Entertain, Shades and Goodnight.
Coordinate orientation, gang arrangement, mounting height and alignment with nearby devices.
Confirm the HomeWorks design, low-voltage wiring and required hardware before walls close.
Decide what each press, raise/lower action or extended hold should do in daily life.
Protect finished controls and keep the final keypad schedule with the home documentation.
Our design recommendation
Use one visual language deliberately
A large home does not need every keypad to be identical, but variation should have a reason. A change in family or finish can make sense between distinct architectural zones; random room-by-room choices usually make the finished home feel less resolved. Confirm any mixed-family plan with the Lutron designer before ordering.
