Tips From The Top

Imagine this:

The perfect summer evening at your home, an outdoor dinner party. The sun is just starting to set, the landscaping lights come up, the music begins and your guests come to the table. As you sit, the lights adjust for dining at dusk, and the music set list you curated plays from invisible speakers all around. The bass levels are just right, the volume ideal for conversation. The lights gradually adjust to match the darkening skies, creating just the right atmosphere under the stars. 

After some time, imagine that some of your guests decide to take a break from the dinner table. Maybe they enjoy an after dinner smoke. Or they want to walk through the garden. Or play basketball. Or sit down to enjoy a movie. Or — and this is the really exciting part — how about if your guests want to do all of these things? Now you’ve got multiple groups moving throughout your outdoor space. Your table still has the dinner set list playing, but the smokers, the garden walkers, the b-ballers all want their own music, and the film goers definitely want to hear the movie. And this is the best part: It’s not only possible – it’s preferable – that all these different audio settings can take place simultaneously in your home’s outdoor space. The audio, the lighting, and the video can integrate perfectly to create ideally curated outdoor spaces for every activity, whether it’s a whirlpool or a pickleball court or a playground.

An integrated smart home outdoor audio, video, and lighting system makes it possible. And once you experience it, you won’t know why you waited so long. Sonance is one of our favorite audio companies for outdoor spaces, with their incredible soundscapes that are created with freestanding, in-ceiling, masonry, landscape, and surface mount speakers. We especially like the subwoofers embedded in outdoor landscaping that blend perfectly to deliver that low, rich sound our clients love for their outdoor theaters and music. Smart speakers can integrate with your current home automation system, making them super-easy and intuitive to control by voice or with a single app. A smart integrated Lutron lighting system can create just the right atmosphere in sections or in all of your outdoor space.

Our preferred automated smart home platforms, like Savant, can make this dream a reality in your home, today.

And we didn’t even talk about what’s possible with smart integrated audio, video, and lighting for your swimming pool!
