Our client for this sensational family home installation wanted a fully integrated Smart Home solution that would provide easy and intuitive control of all aspects of the technology in the house, including, lighting, blinds, CCTV, AV sources, audio and a spectacular cinema projection system. The single point control interface is via a series of AMX wall mounted keypads and wireless touch panels and remote controls.

Music is feed around the house via a series of Apple TV boxes and all of the clients movies are stored centrally on a Kaleidescape media server. This property features an impressive family room/home theatre, with a 2.2m Screen Research Clear Pix 3 acoustically transparent screen, a SIM2 full HD projector and a stunning 5.1 audio system courtesy of Sonance speakers. The screen and projector are automatically hidden and appear from the ceiling at the touch of a button – so when not being used as a cinema it makes a perfect family room. Much of the equipment for the home theatre, including the Kaleidescape media server is stored in the basement in a rack.

Elsewhere multiroom audio is distributed and rooms such as the snooker room and even bathrooms benefit from TV’s media access.
