At Hartmann&Forbes, our pursuit of purposeful design has always been guided by a belief that natural materials, shaped by the hand of an artisan, create spaces of sanctuary. Today, we are pleased to share an exciting new chapter in that story: our partnership with Lutron’s Native by Design™ Program.

This program combines Lutron’s renowned innovations in lighting, motorized window treatments, and lighting control with Hartmann&Forbes’ artisanal windowcoverings to create intelligent shading solutions where advanced technology and timeless craftsmanship exist in perfect harmony.

THE MEANING OF NATIVE BY DESIGN

Unlike traditional integrations, which retrofit intelligence after the fact, Native by Design means seamless from the start. Our handwoven Roman and Roller Style shades, crafted from renewable natural fibers by skilled artisans, are natively engineered to pair effortlessly with Lutron’s precise, whisper-quiet motorized shade drives.

For designers and integrators, this partnership delivers new business opportunities, design confidence, and valuable time savings through simplified, pre-engineered integration. For homeowners, it means intuitive, effortless control and living environments that adapt gracefully to the rhythms of the day.

A SHARED VISION

This partnership is more than a meeting of technology and craft — it’s a shared vision of creating environments that enrich daily living. Together, Hartmann&Forbes and Lutron offer a rare synergy: spaces where light, texture, and movement work in concert to create sanctuary.

As Lutron launches the Native by Design™ Program at CEDIA EXPO 2025, we are honored to be a featured partner in this program.
