BACKGROUND

In an exclusive Winter Park, Florida neighborhood, a tech-savvy family wanted to enrich and enhance their ultimate dream home with technology.

CHALLENGE

Creating a system that matched the client’s desires, needs and budget.

DISCOVERY

The couple had young children and spent a lot of time entertaining family and friends and wanted their system to reflect that. Following the review of the project’s scope and budget, we learned our clients were well versed in technology and wanted to be involved in every step of the way. They wanted to have easy access to entertainment sources, the convenience of operation and peace of mind that their systems would be available on call.

SOLUTION

The home was integrated using Creston audio, video, lighting, and automation systems. The system also features a security alarm system, which is configured to automatically control lighting scenes, thermostat presets, and entertainment power. Entertainment was the key attribute of the system and one of the most important factors for the clients. To help keep the kids and guests amused, a high-definition media server was installed. The server has access to stored movies, music, home movies, as well as streaming Internet content. The entertainment continues with TiVo, Apple TV, and BluRay Player devices. Music and video can be assigned to any room’s speaker or display and plays seamlessly between rooms. The home also features a technology sanctuary dubbed the “man cave” which features a large screen projection system and a Golf simulator.

RESULTS

The end results matched the client’s wants, needs, and budget, while at the same time producing clear documentation and coordination with a vast array of stakeholders. In the end, the clients were extremely satisfied with the finished product.
