Every home is made of a complex set of systems, devices, and technologies that make it convenient to manage your household and perfect your home routine. While you might have systems in place, managing them all from different devices can often get complicated, which is why modern innovations have found a way to link all your tech on a single platform by using whole-house control systems. One of the industry leaders in this new technology is Control4. Below are just some of the benefits it can bring to your Henrico, VA home.
A home theater system offers the opportunity to watch movies as directors and cinematographers intended, with expansive vistas and enveloping sound. By combining high-technology and ultra-comfort, you can show potential homebuyers what they want, the finest in entertainment.
Modern projectors and displays immerse individuals in the story with stunning 4K ultra-high-definition video with millions of pixels, a near-infinite palette of true-to-life colors, and a remarkable depth of field. Surround sound like DTS, and the genuinely multidimensional Dolby Atmos produce the goose-pimple moments, blurring the boundaries.
The technology that reproduces the sound and vision are vital elements, but if a person is uncomfortable or inconvenienced, the experience can be less than satisfactory. Luxury theater seating furnishes comfort and flexibility that is unmatched by the highest quality commercial theaters.

Are you designing a home media room for a client? If so, it helps to start with some basics. For example, let’s start with everyone’s favorite, a car analogy. If your client needs a car that routinely needs to shuttle their family of four to and from many activities, a Corvette simply won’t do. In the same vein, you ask your clients how they will use their kitchen – is it a sprawling home hub for everything from school homework to entertaining large groups or a cook’s kitchen? A similar logic can be applied to the home media room. Narrowing down what your client really needs and wants will help you make the right design decisions.
In the rest of this blog, we’ll cover some basic questions that might seem, well, basic – but the answers matter. If all the answers are “I want all those things,” that’s OK too, but there will still be choices more optimal than most. For example, if your client wanted an SUV that’s as fast as a Corvette, it does exist, but it comes with its own tradeoffs! You understand tradeoffs in design. So here are some questions that will help you and your client design the right media room for your Hanover County, VA project.
