Affiliate Disclosure
Effective Date: July 15, 2026
The Short Version
Brilliant Dwellings participates in various affiliate marketing programs. This means that if you click on a link to a product or service and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission. This comes at absolutely no additional cost to you.
How It Works
When we recommend a specific smart home ecosystem, lighting control system, or architectural audio solution, we often include links to authorized dealers or retail partners. These links contain special tracking codes. If you complete a purchase through one of these links, the merchant pays us a referral fee.
We only partner with reputable, high-end brands and authorized distributors that align with our standards for quality, reliability, and aesthetic excellence.
"We will never recommend a product, protocol, or ecosystem simply because it offers a higher commission. Our recommendations are based entirely on rigorous research, real-world testing, and what we would confidently specify in our own custom builds."
Our Editorial Independence
Our primary goal is to bridge the gap between high-end interior design and invisible technology. Our content is created to serve homeowners, interior designers, and architects. Affiliate revenue helps us fund the extensive research, technical deep-dives, and continuous updates required to maintain this resource, allowing us to keep our core guides accessible.
Our editorial process is strictly independent. We do not accept payment from manufacturers in exchange for positive reviews, and our comparisons (such as Control4 vs. Savant, or Lutron Caseta vs. RadioRA 3) are based on objective performance, aesthetic integration, and long-term reliability.
Brands We Frequently Partner With
While this list is not exhaustive, we frequently utilize affiliate links for premium smart home and architectural technology brands, including but not limited to:
- Lutron (Lighting and Shade Control)
- Sonos and Architectural Audio Providers
- Control4 and Savant (Luxury Home Automation)
- Premium smart home infrastructure providers (e.g., Ubiquiti, high-grade cabling)
- Amazon Associates (strictly for basic tools, mounting hardware, and accessible smart plugs)
Transparency in Digital Products
In addition to affiliate links, Brilliant Dwellings sells proprietary digital products, such as "The Pre-Wire Master Blueprint" and the "Device Compatibility Matrix." Revenue from these direct sales is our primary source of income and allows us to remain fiercely independent in our editorial reviews.
Questions About Our Policies?
We believe in complete transparency. If you have any questions about our affiliate relationships, our review process, or why we recommend a specific product, please do not hesitate to reach out.
