Blending Luxury with Intelligence

At the heart of Coimbatore’s retail district stands Tanishq, a name synonymous withtimeless elegance and trust in the world of fine jewellery. The brand’s Coimbatoreshowroom is more than just a retail space; it’s an experience crafted through design,lighting, and hospitality. For a space where presentation is everything, lighting plays apivotal role in highlighting every sparkle, every detail, and every emotion behind apiece of jewellery.

However, creating such a sophisticated ambience consistently, without manual effortand energy waste, was becoming increasingly difficult. Tanishq needed a lightingsolution that worked with precision and elegance, just like the brand itself.The ask was clear: eliminate manual switching, ensure perfectly lit zones throughoutthe day, and achieve energy efficiency, all without interfering with daily operations orcustomer experience.

Addressing the Challenges

Lighting in a jewellery showroom isn’t just about visibility, it’s about presentation, mood, and storytelling. Different zones, such as display counters, walkways,storage rooms, and customer lounges, have distinct lighting requirements.Consistency was crucial. At the same time, Tanishq wanted to avoid the commonproblem of lights being accidentally left on after hours, leading to unnecessaryenergy consumption.

Adding to the challenge was the showroom’s tight operating schedule. Any installation or system upgrade had to be carried out without affecting business orcausing any downtime.

The Smart Node Solution

Smart Node delivered a fully customized lighting automation solution that not only met the brand’s technical needs but also aligned with the aesthetic andoperational philosophy of the showroom.

We began by mapping out the entire layout and understanding the rhythm of daily operations. Based on this, we deployed a zoning system that gave independentcontrol to specific areas—display zones, lobby, storage, and walkways—allowingthem to be managed separately according to their unique lighting needs.

Our team configured preset “lighting scenes” for various phases of the day:welcoming brightness for opening hours, vibrant highlights during peak footfall,and gentle dimming as the day winds down. These scenes were programmed toactivate automatically based on schedule, requiring zero manual intervention fromthe staff.

For moments that required flexibility, such as special events or cleaning hours, a centralised control panel allowed for manual overrides, offering full control whenneeded, without disrupting the automated flow.

All this was implemented seamlessly without halting daily business, ensuring that operations continued as usual during the upgrade.

Results That Made a Difference

The transformation was immediate and impactful. Lighting across the showroom became consistent, responsive, and intelligent, perfectly aligned with the rhythmof the day and the behaviour of the space. The team no longer needed to worryabout switching lights on or off. The system simply worked, silently and reliably inthe background.

Not only did the showroom enhance its brand presentation, but it also recorded an estimated 30% reduction in energy consumption. This translates to direct costsavings and a more sustainable operation overall.

Customer experience improved, staff found their daily routines simplified, and the ambience of the store remained as premium as the jewellery it displayed.

A Bright Example of Smart Retail

The Tanishq Coimbatore project stands as a glowing example of how thoughtful automation can uplift both form and function. With no disruptions to the businessand no compromise on style, Smart Node successfully delivered an intelligentlighting ecosystem that truly lives up to the brand’s ethos.

In the world of luxury, every detail matters and with Smart Node, even the lighting tells a story.
