Philips Hue have revolutionized home lighting. We all grew up with few real lighting options in our home. Light on the ceiling, switch on the wall. On or off. In a few cases it may have had a dimmer switch, but that was rare. That light in the lamp brightens a room with the flick of a switch. That’s been a simple, convenient way to illuminate dark spaces inside and out. However, Philips Hue has increased the convenience exponentially. Increase the flexibility of home lighting, and even made home lighting fun! Enter our Philips Hue lights contest and find out for yourself how easily you can transform rooms in your home with Philips Hue.

Imagine what you can do with Philips Hue 

I’m amazed at some of the creative applications people have found for Philips Hue. They installed light strips under counters and furniture for cool, colourful effects. They’ve added Philips Hue outdoors for safety, and for fun during festive days: go orange at the end of October, red and green in December!

People have also taken advantage of how other smart tech “plays nice” with Philips Hue. So you can control your lights using any smartphone since it works with Android and Apple products, or control with your voice using Google home or Amazon Echo—as I wish all tech was!

Importantly, Philips Hue is not just a colourful add-on to your existing “normal lighting.” In fact, you may be surprised that most of those ordinary lights in your home can be replaced with smart, multi-functional Philips Hue lights. Imagine you walk into the kitchen at 2:00 in the morning and you simply say, “Alexa, turn kitchen lights on at 20%,” and you have soft lighting as you let the dog outside. Or you drive home and as you approach the driveway, your outside lights, and inside light, turn on automatically!

  2. I am looking atvthis as more of a question of direct or indirect lighting. Sometimes sudlety adds more of a punch then the in your face setup. The light strips add so many options one could really get creative. From a strip under neither the front of your couch so your feet light up sync’d to music or a movie. Or underneath a bay window in the living room thumping away to the beats of a favorite song via a media PC. The great thing is there’s so many color options. I can’t believe I haven’t installed a strip to date and in took me writing a comment section to explore these ideas. To best buy I go!!!!

  3. I am excited to put in the table lamps. Our kids like to have nightlights on at night while they sleep and our existing lamps can’t be turned to a low soft light that won’t keep them awake and automation isn’t an option yet. I’d use an automation rule to turn them on off and fade so the kids have a great night light as well as I don’t have to worry about them waking up in the middle of the night because there light is too bright and keeping them up.

  4. Those Phillips Hue light strips are so versatile I would literally put them everywhere, under the bed, behind my T.V. Above and below my kitchen cabinets…. Everywhere.

  5. I would use the lighting with motion sensors around my house. For example I would have it in my upstairs hallway so and bathroom, so when my 8 year old girls wake up and need to go to the bathroom, theifhts will come on, pre scheduled on a night level. I would alsonuse the colour hue in their rooms so they can change their “night light”. I would use the light strip around my outdoor gazebo, so during summer months we can have nice ambient lights outdoor. I would use them to reduce electricity use within my house

  12. My favorit would be the Beyond Pendant light in my entry to replace the current light that looks straight out of the 70s. The outdoor light strip would be great for the deck and Christmas lighting as well.

  13. My son’s favorite bulb is the color changing A19. We have it in a lamp in the basement. He uses the Google Assistant to turn it on before he goes down to help with the spookiness of the basement. Also lots of fun to change the colour to whatever season or holiday is happening at the time.

  15. I’d use the
    Philips Hue A19 Smart Personal Wireless Light Bulb – White & Colour Ambiance to simulate the sunrise in my bedroom! Living in a basement with few windows makes you miss the beautiful sun!

  18. I would like to have enough Philips Hue A19 Smart Personal Wireless Light Bulb – White & Colour Ambiance for all my lights to have that funky effects of all the colours to create different scenes for all occasions.

  22. Just bought a new condo and the a19 white and colour starter kit would be perfect to start to get into smart lighting!

  29. My favorite one is:

    Philips Hue White & Colour A19 Starter Kit & Go Portable Smart LED Light – Multi-colour

    I will use it in my son’s room. He loves technology and has his eyes on this kit for a long time.

  31. The Philips hue table lights. I will use these in the baby’s nursery perfect for dimming as a night light

  36. The Philips HUE Signe smart LED table lamp looks perfect for my daughter’s room. I would put it on her night table and use it for bedtime stories.
    It could double as a night light and I’ll have Alexa shut it off once I’m certain that she is sleeping.

  39. My favorite smart lighting is the Philips Hue White & Colour A19 Starter Kit , which is the first smart lighting i want to try in my bed room and living room.

  43. I would fill my main entrance with the various lights and then change the colours during Christmas to really get in the Christmas spirit!

  44. I’d like the new Hue Play Smart LED Light Bar Kit – 2 Pack on my wall behind my Samsung curved TV to finish off my HT experience

  45. The classic A19 smart bulbs! I’d put them in my bedroom so I won’t have to leave the bed to turn them off after I’ve gotten comfortable.

  49. My favorite is the Philips Hue Lily Smart Outdoor Spot Light Base Kit, will look lovely around my ever green plants on the front lawn and will glow with the snow on the ground.
