About Project

An unused space in our client’s Newton basement provides big time fun when transformed into a fabulous media room. The family uses the beautiful home theater for movies and gaming together and individually. All this flowing from the initial spark of interest from a simple column detail viewed in our showroom.

The client wanted the media room to look great and be easy to operate. To set the mood for every type of activity, the theaters was outfitted with Control4’s sleek SR250 remote for hand held control of the lighting, DVD player, TV streaming, projector and games. The room was set-up with five “media scenes” based on source selection that included easy one-button operation from a six-button keypad located at the theater’s entrance.

Simply selecting DVD as you enter lowers the lights, activates the audio-video system, selects play and after a short delay, the lights fade out to a pre-determined “movie viewing” lighting scene and the movie begins. Recently an iPad was added to the area for additional control. Touch any setting such as Cable (TV streaming), DVD or Game on the keypad and the room springs to life automatically, activating all of the pre-set programming. The equipment can be used without the mood settings as well.

Client Testimonial

The new room has changed the way we think about entertainment at home and has taken on an importance in our everyday activities that would have been hard to predict at the outset of the project.
