Assembling Your Design Team

Assembling Your Design Team

Building a custom home is a lot of work, but assembling a valuable team of tradesmen that you trust can greatly take the day-to-day pressure off of you. As a technology design partner, we know that our strongest projects stem from being a part of the early planning discussions. The design team is generally comprised of your architect, interior designer, builder, and technology provider. Oftentimes, your builder will pull all of these trades together early in the process, to make sure that the plans and design vision are commonly shared. It is the best way to confirm that the plans all coordinate from one trade to the other. For example, understanding wall finishes, cabinetry designs, mechanical placements, door and window schedules, to name a few, helps all parties involved gain a better understanding of their own rough-in and finish installation requirements.

Fast, High-Definition Video Intercom

Intercoms have evolved a lot over the years. They used to only have audio capabilities, and even then the sound was grainy and unclear. Today, you can communicate with everyone in the house, not only with audio, but video as well. Check on your sleeping baby using HD cameras and Hi-Fi audio. You could also screen visitors at your front door by bringing up the front camera to see who it is, and then let them in. Additionally, you can be selective about where you want the audio and video intercom capabilities, and when you can access them. Put only audio in the bathrooms, and video in the kitchen. Restrict intercom usage to certain times of the day with the “Do not disturb” function. With Control4, your video intercom experience is under your complete control.

Triad Successfully Balances Audio Performance & Aesthetics

In a world of countless products and seemingly endless options in the technology world, one of the roles we take as a Custom Integrator is that of a “curator,” to find the very best products and solutions for our clients. Defining a “best-in-class” product doesn’t mean the most expensive, but rather that it provides the most value. We might rank a product based on its quality, the aesthetic design of the product, how it integrates into a home automation system, how reliable it is, how easy it is to install or service, how it affects your home network, and of course, the products true cost of ownership.

Audio is something that almost every homeowner expects to enjoy to a certain extent in their home these days. Whether it be a single room or two of high-quality stereo music, an entire house filled with background music, a multi-channel home theater room, or an outdoor living space, we help our clients figure out what their audio expectations are in terms of the sound quality, speaker quantity, and overall budget. One of our most trusted and recommended brands is Triad Speakers.
