Luxury Smart Home Experiences
We design systems that disappear into architecture while delivering intuitive control throughout your day — morning light, dinner ambiance, cinema-night immersion, and effortless goodnights.
Human-Centric Lighting & Shades
Lutron HomeWorks and Ketra circadian lighting paired with Screen Innovations motorized shades — sculpting daylight and color to match your rhythm.
Whole-Home Audio & Video
Architectural speakers and reference-grade audio with McIntosh, Yamaha, Triad, and Leon — synchronized zones powered by Sonos and Control4.
Private Theaters & Media Rooms
From minimalist living-room theaters to dedicated cinemas, we calibrate picture and sound so movies and sports feel truly cinematic.
Voice & Scene Control
Set “Entertain,” “Goodnight,” or “Away” and the home responds — lights, shades, audio, climate, and locks orchestrated under Control4 and voice assistants.
Enterprise Wi-Fi & Power
Araknis network designs with WattBox power management ensure stability, remote diagnostics, and low-latency control across estate-scale properties.

Answers to common questions about lighting, shades, audio, theaters, scenes, and networking.
Can you retrofit smart lighting and shades into an existing home?
Yes — we design both wired and wireless plans. Lutron HomeWorks keypads and Ketra tunable white can be retrofitted thoughtfully with minimal disruption.
What’s the difference between Control4 and other ecosystems?
Control4 is a powerful, flexible automation backbone. We also interoperate with comparable Crestron and Savant systems where appropriate to protect past investments.
Do you work with McIntosh and Yamaha components?
Yes — we integrate McIntosh and Yamaha electronics with Triad/Leon architectural speakers, Sonos streaming, and calibrated theaters.
Can outdoor spaces be automated?
Absolutely. Outdoor audio zones, pool and landscape lighting, and weatherproof SunBriteTV viewing can be added to your home’s scenes and schedules.
How long does a typical project take?
Retrofits typically install in 2–6 weeks after design approval; new construction runs alongside trades. We provide a clear schedule and on-site coordination.
