My Hue system is probably one of the best things I ever bought.

I live alone, in a suburb north of Stockholm, so during winters it get really damned depressing to leave the office after sunset, and then get home and open the front door to a dark hole.

Being able to turn some lights on before I open the door has made wonders for my mental health, it makes it feel as if there is someone at home taking care of it and waiting for you to come home.

Then in the mornings, using the lights in my bedroom as an alarmclock in combination with my phone makes me get up far quicker.

And when I have guests over I can set the mood and make my apartment look cool.
