For years, “smart home” meant visible touchscreens on every wall and bulky black speakers hanging from corners. However, the trend has shifted toward quiet luxury. Today, the most sophisticated homes in Atlanta are those where the technology is felt, but never seen.
Here are a few ways we are helping homeowners integrate world-class tech into their homes resulting in the “Invisible Smart Home.”
1. Architectural Audio with the Sonos “In Sight” Solution. By using Sonos In-Wall and In-Ceiling speakers, we provide a nearly flush-mount profile featuring specially designed, micro-perforated grilles.
2. Hidden Video: From Art to Action. The Samsung Frame TV is designed to bridge the gap between high-end technology and interior design by mimicking the appearance of a physical picture frame when not in use.
3. Now you See it, Now you Don’t. If a super slim TV isn’t good enough, we can install motorized ceiling and floor lifts, sliding architectural panels and vanishing mirror technology to remove the TV altogether.
4. Architectural Controls: Jewelry for Your Walls. By moving the actual dimming hardware to a centralized tech closet, we leave your walls clean, featuring only a single, backlit keypad that can control lighting, shading, and music with one touch.
5. “Quiet Ceilings” and Trimless Lighting. We can eliminate the visual noise of traditional recessed lighting with fixtures plastered directly into the drywall, creating a perfectly flat surface where the light source is deep-regressed to eliminate glare.
