BEST INTEGRATED HOME LEVEL II FINALIST LIQUID AUTOMATION

The owner of this home, set amid pine trees on New Zealand’s North Island, knew what he wanted from the very beginning: a Crestron backbone for the AV system, Crestron lighting and a reliable access control system. The client specified that all AV equipment and integrated appliances be discrete or hidden, and where visible should complement the home’s stylish, modern décor.

The Crestron DM video solution forms the core of video distribution, providing a high-performance transport for 4K60 4:4:4 video. On the audio side, Crestron Sonnex delivers high-output audiophile sound quality to every room with reduced cabling, low power consumption, and advanced DSP. The Crestron lighting system featured optimised functions, such as cycle dim via touch-panel button pushes which match those on the client’s iPad. Multiple Crestron touch screens around the residence offer control of their local area for AV selection and various integrated systems. When selecting entertainment, the client is presented with a page that shows the available sources to choose from, and what source is controlled in which area if it is already in use. Access control is achieved under the alarm page, allowing for doors or gates to be held unlocked, locked, or opened.
