Allen Pitts: An Architect Who Illuminated the Future
For two decades, Allen Pitts, a visionary architect and general contractor, faced a recurring frustration.
The world of architectural lighting was stagnant, constrained by the limitations of incandescent bulbs.
Steel and glass, materials necessitated by the intense heat of these bulbs, led to bulky, unattractive,
and expensive fixtures. The industry was stuck in an era that called out for change.
Then, a new player emerged on the scene – LEDs.
These weren’t just any light sources. LEDs are more efficient, longer-lasting, and
operating at room temperature, LEDs were not just a step forward; they were a leap into a
new realm of possibilities.
Embracing this innovation, Pitts embarked on a mission. He envisioned a world where lighting wasn't just functional but
was an integral part of architectural beauty. He saw the potential for materials like wood and plastic,
previously unthinkable due to the high heat of traditional bulbs, to transform lighting into an art form
The journey wasn’t easy. Pitts was up against an industry resistant to change, dominated by traditionalists
clinging to the old ways of incandescent lighting. But his conviction was unwavering. He knew that LEDs
were more than just energy-efficient; they were a pathway to architectural liberation..
After relentless efforts and innovation, Pitts's vision came to fruition. Alpha Digital Architectural Lighting LLC was born –
a company that stood at the forefront of lighting revolution. His creations weren't just lighting fixtures;
they were masterpieces of design, blending functionality with aesthetic elegance using materials
that would be design mayterials that would be melted by halogen, xenon or incandescents.
.
Now, Allen Pitts stands not just as an inventor but as a pioneer who transformed an industry.
His journey from a frustrated architect to a revolutionary innovator is a testament to the power of vision and
perseverance. Alpha Digital Architectural Lighting LLC is more than a company; it’s a beacon of change,
lighting up spaces and lives with creativity and innovation.
