Effortlessly Control Natural and Artificial Light

Today’s automated technology enables homeowners to manage their lighting effortlessly. Gone are the multiple light switches and, in their place, are elegant, custom-engraved in-wall keypads, touchscreens, and remotes. With one touch or voice control, they can change every light in their home and raise or lower every shade. It’s pretty remarkable. 

But it gets even better. The latest home automation platforms manage your home’s lighting for you, automatically raising and lowering the shades, letting in diffused sun rays without harming fine art, floorings, or furniture. At the same time, the lights dim and brighten, based on the level of natural light in the room. It’s the perfect balance of natural and electric light. 

While this type of technology requires extensive home automation knowledge, the professional lighting design brings your Bay Area home to life. The unique colors, placement, highlights, washes, and hidden recesses create the mood and aesthetics. At Hermary’s, our team of design and integration experts create extraordinary results by combining technology and design. We work with our valued clients to develop customized solutions unique to their lifestyles and dreams. Let's explore the possibilities in our blog below!

3 Components for the Perfect Home Theater Sound System

Movie theaters offer an incredible viewing experience. Large format screens and killer audio make for an immersive cinematic encounter unlike your living room has to offer. On the downside, there are loud crowds, limited showtimes, and poor viewing angles. Stale popcorn doesn’t help, either. 

At Hermary’s, we offer homeowners in the Bay Area all the brands and automation solutions to turn any room into a custom, luxurious home theater. We have everything from projector screens and TVs to Lutron’s lighting and shading control and Fortress’ seating collections. 

But we know if the audio isn’t perfect, your theater won’t be complete. That’s why a home theater sound system is essential to create your own cinematic experience.

Here are three components that cannot be missing from your home theater sound system. 

Keep Your Kids Safe with Digital Perimeters

When you consider a home surveillance system, what comes to mind? For many people, it's protecting their homes from intruders and keeping a watchful eye on their property when away. While these are undoubtedly important features, sometimes the day-to-day support it offers enhances our lives the most.

It’s being able to look in on the kids when you’re working, receiving an alert when they get home before you do, and checking in on a new babysitter that can bring the greatest peace of mind. When integrated with your Savant or Control4 home automation system, you experience effortless control.

Let’s explore how home surveillance can make life a little easier, more enjoyable, and more secure in your Bay Area home.
