Greet Guests in Style and Sound

As your guests arrive for your dinner party or gathering, you can create the perfect inviting and welcoming environment for them to enter.

Set up your landscape lighting to turn on as soon as the sun sets, so that when friends pull up into your driveway they can safely make their way to your front door.  Well-lit paths and colorful lighting not only increase your home’s safety, but also improve your curb appeal.

Playing background music or festive tunes during the holidays on your outdoor speakers allows your guests feel like they’re walking up to a warm and inviting atmosphere. This will boost their mood and get them excited for the evening ahead.

With your distributed audio, your music can continue to play as they walk through your door and follow your guests around your house.  Sleek configured wall panel controls or smart devices make it easy for you to adjust volume of your music as chatting gets louder as more people arrive.

Create Ambiance Over Dinner

Once everyone is settled in and conversing with one another, eating a prepared meal in the dining room allows for a warmer and more comfortable way for everyone to catch up.  Dim the overhead lights and play relaxing tunes as every eats, creating the ideal ambiance for everyone to enjoy together.

Press a button to lower your motorized shades for privacy, or raise them up if you have a great view of the outdoors from your windows.  If guests appear to feel a bit chilly or too hot, you can adjust your smart thermostat right from the table using your smart device.

Entertainment the Way Anyone Wants It

Integrating audio video throughout your home makes it a breeze for any guest to enjoy a movie later in the night.

The system is so easy to use, anybody can pick up the smart device and peruse through a virtually endless library of media to pick from.  Streaming services like Netflix or Hulu let your friends and family choose any movie or show they want and can play on any screen in your home.

Even as guests go into your home theater or media room, you can program your screens to play when anyone enters a room.  They’ll be immediately immersed in the media, and they can see just how fun it’ll be to choose what they want to watch.

Another great idea is to let everyone enjoy a movie night outside under the stars.  If it starts to get cold or everyone would rather move indoors, they can pause the film and pick it back up right where they left off once they’ve settled down in the media room.

Guests can choose to play video games, turn on a dance playlist, or pull up YouTube to show videos for everyone to laugh at and enjoy.  The options are limitless – and it’s all easily accessible with just a push of a button on your smart device.
