We installed a Lutron lighting control system with keypads that blend nicely with the home’s design, making it easy to adjust the lighting throughout the house. We also added Lutron motorized shades to give the client smooth control over light and privacy. For entertainment, we installed Samsung Frame TVs that look just as good off as they do on, along with Origin Acoustics in-ceiling speakers that fill each room with great sound. Outdoors, Bowers & Wilkins speakers extend the audio experience, perfect for relaxing or entertaining outside. To keep the home safe, we set up Alarm.com security cameras, a video doorbell, and an alarm panel, giving the client peace of mind and easy access to everything. This project was a great opportunity to combine smart technology and everyday comfort, creating a home that’s stylish, secure, and easy to control.

To bring his vision to life, we installed a complete outdoor entertainment system designed for performance and reliability. The setup features an Elite Screens outdoor projection screen paired with a BenQ projector, protected inside a DeerTV Medium Outdoor Weatherproof Projector Enclosure for long-term durability.
For sound, we added Sonos outdoor speakers that fill the patio with balanced audio, pairing perfectly with the projector for movies, sports, and music.
The final result is a comfortable, inviting outdoor area that feels like a personal movie space—perfect for relaxing evenings and game-day gatherings.

We installed a Control4 automation system to bring everything together—lighting, music, entertainment, and security—all from one easy platform. Touchscreens around the house make it simple for the client to control lighting, music, cameras, and even the outdoor heaters. We added Lutron tensioned skylight rollers for smooth and precise light control. To enhance the design, we installed Proluxe linear lighting surrounding the skylights, creating a soft glow that highlights the ceiling details and adds depth to the room. The client also envisioned a custom light-up center table, and we made that vision a reality by integrating Proluxe linear lighting inside the table, adding a modern, one-of-a-kind touch. We also included DMF ceiling lights for balanced illumination and Aispire landscape lighting outdoors, bringing warmth and showcasing the home’s exterior design at night. Throughout the home, Bowers & Wilkins in-ceiling speakers deliver rich, balanced sound. The outdoor speakers were painted black per the client’s request, matching the space perfectly. We also included Amina invisible in-wall speakers for areas where the client wanted great sound without visible equipment. In the living room, a Samsung Frame TV fits perfectly with the home’s design, while the media room features a Sony TV for a more immersive entertainment setup. Outside, we installed five Infratech heaters, all connected to Control4 for easy temperature control. For security, we integrated Turing cameras and a Control4 video doorbell, giving the client peace of mind with convenient access from anywhere.

From the start, we worked hand-in-hand with the builder to ensure every solution complemented the home’s modern design and the client’s lifestyle.
Home Automation: We installed a Control4 system that unifies entertainment, security, lighting, shading, and alarm control into one effortless platform. Our integration covered music, security cameras, lighting (in collaboration with the electrician), and motorized shades (programmed by the shade provider and tied into Control4 by our team).
Touchscreens were added throughout the home, giving the client quick access to lighting, music, cameras, and more—all from one central spot.
Each space was outfitted with a Samsung Frame TV, blending with the aesthetic of the home.
Audio: Inside the home, Origin Acoustics in-ceiling speakers provide rich, balanced sound without taking away from the clean look of each room. Each speaker was carefully color-matched to the ceiling, blending in with the design. Outdoors, the backyard is equipped with Coastal Source speakers, built to handle the weather while still delivering great sound.
Security: Safety was a priority. We integrated Luma Surveillance cameras into the Control4 ecosystem, giving the client complete visibility and peace of mind. All controllable from a single interface.
This project is another example of how collaboration with Legacy CDM continues to produce outstanding results, and we look forward to building on this partnership for many more homes to come.

We installed a Lutron RA3 lighting control system, complete with color-matched keypads to complement each room’s design, adding both functionality and visual flow. For easy, hands-free control, we integrated Josh.ai voice control, allowing the client to manage lighting and music with simple voice commands. In the family room, we created a clean, immersive entertainment experience with invisible JBL front speakers and subwoofers discreetly hidden behind the drywall. To complete the look, we used a Leon Studio Frame, transforming a Sony TV into a sleek, art-like display. While the in-ceiling speakers in some areas were pre-installed, we integrated them into the system and synced them with the rest of the speakers we provided—ensuring a smooth, unified audio experience throughout the home. We also installed landscape speakers and subwoofers in the outdoor areas, providing powerful, evenly distributed sound throughout the backyard. To ensure reliable connectivity, we included a Starlink internet backup system along with a dual-WAN router, providing smooth internet access even during service interruptions. This home is a great example of how advanced technology can be thoughtfully integrated into everyday living, bringing together smart control, modern design, and dependable performance.

We worked hand-in-hand with the client to bring his smart home vision to life—balancing luxury, functionality, and future-proof technology. We installed Control4 throughout the home, creating a single, streamlined system to manage everything from lighting and audio to security and climate. Control4 keypads and a smart doorbell ensured easy access and total home awareness from anywhere in the house. For entertainment, we installed Samsung Frame TVs in the living room and master bedroom to blend beautifully into the décor, along with additional Samsung and Sony TVs in the bedrooms and outdoor areas. Audio was a top priority, so we integrated Bowers & Wilkins in-ceiling and in-wall speakers across the home, including the theater, which also features a Sony projector, a Screen Innovations screen, and a Velodyne subwoofer for a premium cinematic experience. To elevate the space even more, we added linear lighting by American Lighting along the staircase—not only to enhance the modern look, but also to keep every step well-lit and safe. The outdoor space got a serious upgrade as well, with Ambisonic landscape speakers and subwoofers creating immersive audio for gatherings or quiet evenings. We added Infratech outdoor heaters to ensure comfort in every season, and Lutron window treatments were installed throughout the home for effortless control of privacy and natural light—all integrated into Control4. We also implemented a full Alarm.com camera system for 24/7 security.

We replaced the customer’s existing outdoor speakers and added a patio TV setup designed for flexibility — allowing audio to come from either the TV or music, whether the screen is on or off. The system includes a new Sonos Amp to power two outdoor speakers and an audio return HDMI to connect everything smoothly. Inside, we swapped out the old 65" Samsung TV with a sleek new 75" Samsung Frame TV, delivering a modern look with intuitive functionality. To support it all, we upgraded the entire home’s WiFi system, ensuring fast and reliable connectivity in every corner. The result is a clean, powerful, and user-friendly entertainment experience—indoors and out

From the beginning, we worked closely with the builder to ensure every detail aligned with the home's modern aesthetic and the client’s lifestyle needs. We installed Control4 for full home automation, providing effortless control over entertainment, lighting, and security systems. Each room is equipped with a Samsung Frame TV, blending function and design. For immersive audio, we installed Origin Acoustics in-ceiling speakers throughout the home. Outdoors, we brought the exterior to life with Coastal Source landscape speakers, including weatherproof speakers on the rooftop—perfect for entertaining with powerful, high-quality sound in any weather. The rooftop jacuzzi area was a standout request. Our client envisioned a TV positioned in front of the tub for ultimate relaxation. To enhance both comfort and style, we installed a custom motorized pop-up Samsung TV—delivering smooth, discreet entertainment without compromising the space’s sleek design. Security was a key component of this project. We integrated Turing Video surveillance cameras into the Control4 system, giving the client peace of mind and convenient access to monitoring features. From start to finish, this project was all about blending design and technology to create a space that’s smart, secure, and beautifully executed. We’re proud to have partnered with Legacy CDM and look forward to more collaborations in the future.
