Design and Installation Highlights
Intelligent Control and Integration
The Control4 system is the heart of this smart home installation in Harpenden, unifying lighting, music, video, and security into a single intuitive platform. The homeowner can control every feature from touchscreens, mobile devices, or keypads.
Lighting Design and Ambience
A Lutron lighting system paired with Orluna architectural fittings creates perfect scenes for every mood. The design enhances the natural textures of the barn while maintaining a soft, inviting atmosphere throughout the living spaces.
Audio and Video Performance
Discreet Gallo Acoustics speakers deliver detailed sound in every room, complemented by Sonance garden audio that extends entertainment outdoors. Samsung QLED televisions were chosen for their clarity, style, and seamless integration into the home’s aesthetic.
Security and Safety
Vertex AV installed an Ajax hybrid intruder alarm for complete peace of mind, alongside an EN54-compliant fire alarm system for enhanced safety and reliability.
