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.

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.

Discover the Versatility, Convenience, and Luxury of a Smart Home Automation System 

In the early 1950s, black and white televisions became commonplace in homes. By 1956, more than half of U.S. homes had a television. No new invention had entered homes faster than the TV. Even though it was a modern marvel, there was only one way to control it: twist the knob to turn it on and off. Now, we can adjust our TVs in a myriad of ways – manually, by remote, or with smart home automation

If you already live in a smart home, ask yourself this question: Are you controlling your smart technologies only one way? While using a touchpad is certainly more convenient than manually adjusting your lights, TVs, and motorized shades, you have other options too – ones that add even more luxury to your life.
