Nanoleaf's Canvas light panels offer a glimpse of the future, today, with their awesome color changing abilities and modular square tiles. These panels can display up to 16 million unique colors, and can sync up to your music, making them perfect for parties. Best of all, each tile works as a HomeKit button, meaning you can tap a tile to start an automation, or to set a scene. It's all customizable through the Home app.

The LIFX Tile starter set comes with five unique squares that can connect to each other, giving you the ability to create your own works of art. These panels not only look cool, but they are seriously bright, capable of outputting a whopping 2,100 lumens of light when all five are on. Each panel also has 64 assignable color zones.

The beam can produce around 16 million different colors, and its design allows light to travel from piece to piece.
