Live a Luxurious Lifestyle with Smart Home Automation
Discover the Possibilities in a Smart Home
If you’re new to the world of smart home automation, you may think of this technology in terms of lights that turn on and off with voice commands and motorized window shades that raise and lower with one touch on an in-wall keypad. While these represent smart home technology, they’re but a small piece of the smart home pie. A whole-home automation platform offers so much more.
In essence, it creates an integrated ecosystem of interconnected devices and systems that respond to your needs and lifestyle. Tap an icon on a touchscreen, and your lights transform to the color of candlelight while your “Relaxing” playlist streams through your San Francisco, CA home and outdoor spaces. In the hands of an experienced integrator, a customized smart home offers the ultimate lifestyle, effortless management of your home, and greater enjoyment.
Let’s explore a few of the many features today’s smart home brings homeowners in the Bay Area.

Integrated Technology
A home automation system controls all your connected devices and systems, such as lighting, climate, entertainment systems, security, pool and spa, gates and irrigation, and more. These systems connect to the home automation platform and to each other via your home network.
This interconnection allows your home to operate based on certain parameters. For example, we can program your motorized shades to raise in the morning, letting in the first rays of dawn. As the sun rises in the sky, the shades on your south-facing windows lower, reducing solar heat gain and protecting fine art and furnishings from harmful UV rays. At the same time, your lighting adjusts in direct response to the amount of daylight in occupied rooms. Like a domino, one system affects another, creating the ideal environment.
A Customized Approach
The first step when we work with clients is getting to know their lifestyles and everyday activities. This allows us to understand the many possible features that are important to different family members and program the system accordingly.
For homeowners that entertain regularly, we’ll program an “Entertain” button that sets the lighting to their chosen hue and temperature, streams their desired playlist through their home, illuminates the landscape and patio lights, and ignites the outdoor fire features. Many of our clients are delighted with a whole-home AV system that brings high-performance audio via nearly invisible speakers and 4K and 8K high-definition video throughout their home and outdoor spaces.
Dynamic lighting is another popular feature. We can program your lighting to change throughout the day, mimicking the sun’s changing light. You’ll experience lighting that resembles sunrise in the morning, cool blue tones during the day that promotes focused intention, and soft amber hues in the evening that induce relaxation.
You can manage your home from one app, wherever you are, whether in the living room or across the world.
