An integrated Eco Barn
Our brief was to help create a sustainable eco home across two oak buildings in a picturesque part of North Wales, whilst a complete renovation of the main house was taking place. Although the whole development had to be aesthetically pleasing and sympathetic to the surroundings, the client wanted a full compliment of AV and automation,
The details
The property uses combinations of smart heating systems with weather compensation, automatic occupancy detection to shut down systems that are not is use and also lighting control with energy efficient LED’s to make this one of the most eco friendly homes around. The property harnessed the power of a custom Crestron control system for the main smart home integration and a Lutron QS system for the lighting control.
This project included
-
Our integrated systems provide a single point of control, eliminating the need for multiple remotes, visible wiring, and reducing the amount of technology on display to maximise the aesthetics of your home. This can be accomplished through elegant wall-mounted touch screens, handheld remotes, or dedicated phone and tablet apps.
-
An intelligent lighting solution creates atmosphere, transforming ordinary rooms into extraordinary spaces. Create ambience with a single button that controls several lighting circuits, have lights slowly turn on at sunset, trigger illuminated pathways and integrate with security systems.
-
Essential yet invisible, a well designed and installed cable infrastructure aims to future proof your home. We design your cabling to accommodate the technology you want now and may want in the future, giving you the flexibility to grow your system with your needs.
-
Enjoy all of your favourite TV shows, movies and music instantly in any room, distributed from media servers, Sky boxes or even your phone. Instantly available and accessed by a simple button, everything is possible no matter where you are in your home.
-
From CCTV and intruder alarms to perimeter detection systems and gate access, our state-of-the-art systems ensure there is a discreet but powerful level of security in place to alert homeowners in the event of an unwanted visitor and provide complete peace of mind.
-
In a modern home the IP network is the backbone of most of the systems that we install, from the standard distribution of internet over wired and WiFi connections through to sophisticated Audio and Video over IP solutions. Whatever your needs, a well designed and implemented network is an important first step.
-
Energy efficiency is better for the environment and your household bills. A smart heating system will ensure that only rooms in use are heated or cooled as desired. It will even learn your heating/cooling patterns, adapting the schedule to pre-empt your needs.
-
A home gym provides convenience and flexibility and provide a personalised workout environment which is enhanced when you have access to all of your favourte movies, TV shows and playlists.
-
To accentuate natural light, you can programme blinds, curtain track systems and skylight shutters to open at a set time in the morning and close at night or as desired. Shade rooms during the day or give the impression of occupancy while you’re away - all from the palm of your hand.
Home gym media room
A 65 inch plasma display media wall with 3 in-wall Bower and Wilkins speakers and hidden subwoofer provided impressive TV and movie watching capabilities whilst working out.
Occupancy sensing
The alarm panel PIR sensors are wired into the Lutron system along with standalone exterior PIR sensors. This information is passed onto the Crestron processor where we have created custom occupancy programming logic which will turn off all of the rooms equipment such as TV’s lights and amplification after a client specified amount of time.
Eco friendly
The property uses combinations of smart heating systems with weather compensation, automatic occupancy detection to shut down systems that are not is use and also lighting control with energy efficient LED’s to make this one of the most eco friendly homes around.
