The client is a big fan of new technologies and wanted to enhance his family lifestyle, increase security and provide easy, intuitive interface for all family members. The primary scope for the job was to integrate everything possible. Due to budget limitations we had to design a solution which would give our client the most desired features and have the ability to keep adding to the installed system in the future.
The system consists of fully integrated (16) multi-zone audio and (7) HD video zones, computer network, phones, HVAC system, (2) CCTV, Burglary alarm with (24) monitored zones and lighting control.
Audio options are: XM radio, PC Media Server, Blu-Ray and iPod;
Video options include: HD cable TV, TiVo, Blu-Ray, Wii, PC Media server;
All of the integration was done via Control4 system that is straightforward and very easy for the homeowner to operate.

Client has a huge digital music collection (TB’s of data in mp3 format) and digital pictures stored on the PC Media Server. He can easily access it using Control4 system and also via custom connection solution with separate keyboard and mouse on each floor.
Client’s iPhone has installed application to control his home system.
Custom programmed lighting scenes and music playlists are among the most used features of the system. Outside surveillance camera is connected to the doorbell, which sends an image of the front door entry to TV screens whenever pressed. Other custom features were programmed to accommodate the client lifestyle habits.
The end result – very successful project and extremely satisfied customer.
