Lighting control was also integrated and worked harmoniously with the shading. Working with the Lighting Design Studio on this project we were able to achieve some stunning layers of lighting that both complimented the natural daylight throughout the house and some striking features when dark. There were in excess of 70 lighting circuits.

Entertaining was also another important aspect when we discussed the requirements with our client. An informal, relaxing place for family and friends to gather. The games room was a focal feature where we were able to ensure control from the touchscreens, of the zoned audio, providing both background and party options. Our client had a love for playing his DJ decks and we were able to integrate this third party product into the solution so that it too could be heard through the speakers throughout the whole house both inside and outside.

It is knowing these small but important details that really make the difference to a bespoke smart home solution. If you can think it, we can automate it.

Alongside the TV installed within the bar cabinetry in the games room, there were 6 further TVs placed around the Home. The TVs and in-ceiling & wall speakers throughout the house were all connected back to the central rack for instant streaming of any audio and video source.

The placement of the TV in the master bedroom was important. Our clients wanted the option of watching TV from their bed when they chose to but not have it interrupt the scenic views at any other time.

Our solution was a motorised hatch lift that dropped down from the ceiling. When turned on from the touchscreen or remote control, the TV automatically turned on and dropped down, and when turned off, it retracted back into the ceiling. It was also integrated with the curtains so that they would close when the TV was in use. Additionally, we were able to set a timer so that it would automatically turn off after a certain length of time should the viewers have fallen asleep.
