System Design We start by doing an in-depth survey of your home (or blueprints if building a new home), security and all the subsystems in your home (see examples above) as well as your specific needs and preferences. We will design a whole house system considering all family members, guests and any household staff. This extensive process will allow us to design and customize a unique system matched to your particular lifestyle. We will also take into account what you would like to incorporate into your systems in the future as your needs change and new technologies develop. We will build in scalability and open-ended systems for simply "adding to" or modifying the system, rather than starting over. If you are building a new home, we can also work with your architect, interior designer, general contractor and subcontractors. We will make sure everyone is on the same page throughout every phase of the project. This will insure there are no surprises, costly mistakes or delays in your construction schedule. |

User Control |
||
We can give you easy ways to control everything in your home using any or all of the following: |
||
Wall Switch (which is also controlled by remotes, phone, computer, etc.) |
Touch Screen Remote |
Wall Control Panel |
Double Wall Control Panel |
Button Remote |
Outside or In Shower (waterproof) |
Cell Phone (control house from anywhere in the world) |
Touch Screen (can be hung on wall, recessed into wall or built into furniture) |
Computer Scheduler (things happen while you're away- makes it look like someone is home) |
It
frees you up for more important and enjoyable things. Life
becomes more manageable, less stressful, less frustrating. We work with
you to design a custom system that will fit and enhance your particular
lifestyle and keep you safe. |
||
Existing Home We can do retrofit installation into existing construction. It will be a clean and seamless installation with no messy construction or exposed wiring. We have done this for many years and know how to make everything work without tearing up your home. The design will integrate smoothly and efficiently into your home in a manner that compliments all of the subsystems. Lastly, you can be assured the design and installation will be a seamless fit with your decor. Being interior designers, we realize how important the design concept is to the scope of the project...we never loose sight of the old form vs. function concept. |
||
Our systems can easily be installed in your home without any messy construction or exposed wiring and expanded later. |
||
New Home Of course, we can also do new construction installation. We will work with your architect, interior designer, general contractor, and other relevant subcontractors involved in your project. We will assure that the design and installation of your systems integrates smoothly and efficiently into the construction time line. |

Systems Integration Most people start by eliminating the mess of remotes that make up their audio/video system with one universal remote. The problem with that is that most universal remotes are too hard to operate (and they do so little). We take it to the next level. We can set up any scenario of events to take place and give you centralized control of all subsystems. For example you push a button and all equipment comes on, drapes close, lights dim, air-conditioning goes to comfort level, satellite goes to your favorite station and the remote brings up the satellite control screen. Also see Home Theater for more information. We will determine a scope of design that is tailored to your specific needs and expectations. You tell us what you would like your systems to do and we will make it happen. We determine the types of interaction and control that you need and design comprehensive security and control that is easy to operate. We realize that even though systems can become quite sophisticated, the user interface must always be simple, intuitive and user-friendly. The intent of security and home control is to make life safer and easier...not harder. |
