Art Gallery
(To view the images, please click on the product/project name.)
This is the first Dedicated New Build Art Gallery in Cornwall since the Tate Gallery in St. Ives, Cornwall, England. The client had a very clear brief for the lighting and general technology in the two main Gallery Spaces, along with the Office, Toilets, Plant Room and Outside area.
Due to the Large White Walls, Artwork and Oak Beam construction of the building, the technology including switches, Media/ Speakers and IT Networking had to be hidden and out of view.
The installed Sub-Systems had to be extremely easy to use by staff members and had to enable easy curation of Art Show Lighting Levels.
Our design required us to integrate the following systems:
- Smart Control System by Control4
- 40 lighting loads in 8 zones with Control4 Panelised Lighting & Enttec/ DMX Controlled LED Strip
- 2 Audio Zones With Streamind Music & Wireless Microphone
- 2 Projector Zones for Artwork & Promotional Purposes
- 8 Zones of Security Integration

See video case study here: https://youtu.be/hkmZODPtzTY
13 Coins is a classic Seattle eatery that recently moved the first of its’ four locations into a new residence in Pioneer Square – an area where Seattle’s history meets its’ athletic heart as the home of the Seahawks, Mariners and Sounders stadiums. The restaurant is known for its 24/7 service, classic high-backed booths and bar stools, and amazing comfort foods. Wipliance was tasked with bringing a modern touch to the atmosphere that would not only be enjoyable for customers but would be easily managed by staff and owners.

The audiovisual rich design included:
35 Zones of Distributed Video
12 Zones of Distributed Audio
Short-throw Projection System
Motorized Projection Screen
Video Matrix Control System
30 Zones of Lighting Control
25 Zones of Security Surveillance
Reinforced Network with Wireless Coverage
Central Interface for Quick Control and Remote Access

A major goal of the client was eliminating the need to ‘find the remote’ to change the channel on multiple or individual screens quickly during sports events and for private events where the guest would like to present on screen.

This home is in the exclusive "Bella Collina" resort located in the central Florida plateau near Orlando, unlike the rest of the state, this area offers residence rolling hills and beautiful vistas. The home was built on the shore of a large private lake, the builder wanted to take full advantage of the beautiful views and fully enjoy the outdoor "Florida Lifestyle"
Bella Collina is modeled after a small Italian town and features a full PGA Golf course designed by legendary golfer Sir Nick Faldo, also a Bella resident. Sitting on a Hilltop, the 60 thousand square foot clubhouse is more of a castle than than club. When you are here, you would swear you are in Tuscany.
Entertaining clients often, a special emphasis was placed on the outdoor living and pool areas.
The home is both a personal residence, and a showcase of the builders skills, so innovation and a low impact installation ruled the day. The home needed to be bold- state of the art, yet this absolutely had to have a minimal impact on the interior design.

Chicago NorthShore Estate
(To view the images, please click on the product/project name.)
Innovation is the driving force of Liaison’s company mission, and for this Chicago North Shore project, we pushed ourselves to think outside the box to streamline installation and elevate performance. We used a single Crestron system to control high voltage and low voltage lighting fixtures in both outdoor and indoor settings, whereas in the past we would have needed separate control interfaces for each system. Amazingly 18/2 wire can simultaneously deliver power and control for the low-voltage lighting fixtures. These LED lighting fixtures only need and receive the voltage they require because of their over 90% efficiency. As a result, we’re able to use a thinner wire that is easier to install, less costly, and prevents wasting extra energy.
For this expansive 18,000 square foot home, we designed a centralized lighting control system that provides the highest level of performance, reduces energy usage, and eliminates wall clutter by converting a bank of light switches to one single designer keypad. Unique to this and our other Crestron controlled systems is our patented GUI. This GUI provides the client total control of their system from a simple to use interface on touch panels as well as tablets.
Illumination, lighting control, brilliance, lighting consistency, lighting color, and true surface colors were all very important to the client. We worked with LumaStream to give the client the type of lighting quality and control that he wanted. For outdoor areas, Luxor’s specialized landscape lighting fixtures provided enhanced security and comfort options. We used Crestron’s distributed lighting systems to give the homeowner control of their different types of lighting loads from one general control solution. To integrate both high voltage and low voltage lighting we went with a hybrid solution that tied both centralized and traditional wireless dimmers into one control interface.

Craftsman-style Centerpiece Home Theater
(To view the images, please click on the product/project name.)
The centerpiece of the Michigan Estate home’s extensive basement remodel, this Craftsman-style theater is among the first 9.2.4 Dolby Atmos theaters in the upper Midwest. Like many lower-level renovations, designing a dedicated home theater into a space that’s already been framed-out represents challenges, but this one had a hallway running through the middle of it! The design teams and discerning homeowner overcame the challenges, implementing custom barn doors, disguised as walls, that slide open to reveal a hip, urban Rec Room for all ages.
Defining a space to accommodate the desired theater design and seating requirements took some ingenuity and extensive collaboration between the builder, interior designer, Automation Design + Entertainment and the homeowner. The area offering the ceiling height needed to accommodate the risers was located directly beneath the main living area. To isolate the sound from the floor above, as well as into the adjacent areas, Kinetics Noise Control Acoustic treatments were installed.
Not to be upstaged by its sleek design, the theater boasts an impressive audio, video and lighting experience. The homeowner had auditioned Dolby Atmos in Automation Design + Entertainment’s Lifestyle Showroom and had to have it! It features Bowers & Wilkins speakers throughout, including surrounds hidden within the custom proscenium and screen wall, all driven by Pioneer Elite. A Sony 4K projector displays onto a 2:3:5 format Screen Innovations backlit screen.
The room features eight custom Fortress theater chairs, along with four stools at the granite bar top on the top tier. Lutron Radio RA2 controls the risers’ step lights, proscenium sconces, the screen’s backlight, two zones of can lighting for the upper and lower levels, walkway lighting and cove lighting that casts blacklight onto the theater’s signature feature, a custom-painted mural of the constellations.

Elegant Theater
(To view the images, please click on the product/project name.)
Since a high quality video experience in this room was a top objective for this client we demoed Sonys laser VPL-VW5000ES projector for him and he loved it. Additionally we incorporated an Oppo UDP-203 and Kaleidescape Strato 4K player to ensure that he could take advantage of actual 4K content as it became more readily available. This client had complained about other supposed high end theaters he had sat in where he had trouble hearing the dialogue and felt the sound quality was low relative to the scale of the room. We wanted to direct him towards a JBL Synthesis system to take advantage of their vast product selection, advanced calibration and performance not only to satisfy his expectations but to overcome some room obstacles as well. This client obviously wanted cutting edge video but high quality audio with the latest sound formats. We settled on incorporating a 7.1.2 system into this room using a Integra DHC-80.6 to help facilitate updated audio formats while the JBL SDEC-4500P applies the sound field management and calibration. Additionally as the client wanted a soft feeling cozy space and also excellent intelligibility with regards to dialogue and sound track we covered most the room with a stretched acoustical fabric system. While this theater was built in this empty nesters dream home they have a large family that visits often so incorporating 8 dedicated theater seats was also a specific request of this client. While the primary purpose of the room is for screening movies it was to be a social atmosphere for watching sports which is another strong factor in the 16:9 screen choice to ensure an immersive experience.

Expansive Whole Home System
(To view the images, please click on the product/project name.)
The video system incorporates 24 independent video zones with 7 video source options. The distributed video content is received by a Crestron DM Switch in our centralized rack then sent and received by Crestron DM-RMC-4K-110-C 4K HDMI receivers throughout the house. Whether it’s the laundry room or just guest bathroom #5, all video locations are centrally distributed with access to the rack sources complemented by an elevated audio experience through the distributed speakers. Most rooms have a Crestron TSR-302 touch screen remote for the AV, HVAC, lights and shade control in a particular room. Due to the clients request to conceal some video locations we’ve incorporated a Seura mirror TV in the master bathroom and a Media Decore art screen in the master bedroom. Additionally in a few critical areas where an elevated audio experience was desired and aesthetics were paramount we have custom built Leon sound bars in three locations complimenting the video solution.
The audio system incorporates 46 independent zones with 13 source options. The house audio is distributed by a Crestron Sonnex SWAMP multi room system. Those zones of audio collectively have 110 amplified channels of audio. Most zones have either handheld remote controls in video areas or Crestron C2N-CBD-E-A-S convenience controls in each space, there are 39 simple keypad locations tied to the system for easy convenience controls.
The security system has three touch screen keypad control locations. There are twenty nine contacts around the property monitoring not only the main doors and garages but also the various maintenance doors in the lower level. We have nineteen glass break detectors and seven motion detectors. Five water sensor locations keep an eye on mechanical devices and likely areas to have water leakage around the property.

Multi-Dwelling Units (MDUs) come in a variety of shapes and sizes ranging from small condos to high-rise buildings. Over the years technology has become an integral part of designing these spaces and although no two MDU units are alike, having consistent technology inside each unit can help enhance security features, raise value, and attract modern renters and buyers. MDU managers are using technology to create a dynamic and intuitive space for their tenants and guests. SmartTouchUSA recently transformed a 50-unit, Baltimore based residence and hotel using Crestron home automation technology to enhance the overall experience throughout the whole building.

We used the Elan platform for this job. The main processor is the GSC10. We are using 2 Elan S1616 zone controllers with a couple Elan A6 amps for addition power in a couple zones. There is a Anthem MRX 720 A/V receiver in the trophy room for a surround sound setup. There are 16 stereo A/V zones. One 7.1 surround sound zone and a few more TV only zones. All TVs were Sony XBR series that really integrated great with Elan. Sonance was the preferred brand of speaker for this job. The master bathroom and bar are both equipped with a Seura mirror TV. Lutron lighting and thermostats integrated with Elan seamlessly. The Leviton Omnipro II was perfect when it came to intrusion. We have right under 70 security zones with 3 different partitions. Elan also integrated perfectly with the Pentair Intellitouch system for the pool. Eight 7" touchscreens were placed throughout the house along with a handful of Elan HR200 remote controls. Holovision door stations and one gate station make it very easy for guest to communicate with the homeowner. Ubiquiti access points were also setup throughout the home to make sure wifi works great everywhere. Last but not least, our customer had central vac at her old house so this was a must.

Futurian Systems - Luxury Yacht
(To view the images, please click on the product/project name.)
The Caribbean Islands harbor some of the most beautiful boats in the world. Many of us make these islands a vacation to escape the realities of the real world, and some charter magnificent vessels to tour those islands during their stay.
When Hurricane Irma developed in late 2017, many of the islands and the boats around them took a direct hit from one of the most devastating Category 5 Hurricanes on record. The damages sustained from this storm left the islands demolished and many boats abandoned. Soon after the hurricane, the people of St. Maarten went to work in rebuilding their island and restoring the boats that had been badly damaged. Once such boat was the Lady Sharon Gale (LSG).
.
The owner of the LSG had worked with Futurian Systems on several previous projects in multiple homes across the country. Futurian was requested to fly down and take a look at the electronics within the LSG and determine a plan to upgrade all such systems to an even better state than before.
Futurian’s President, Jeremy Beck, flew to St. Maarten in early 2018 to investigate the condition of the yacht and determine the scope of the project. Upon arrival to the island, Jeremy was shocked to see the devastation caused by the hurricane, and how it had impacted the LSG.
Nonetheless, Jeremy’s team had been involved in other projects that had required a massive overhaul such as this and took on the project with all confidence to restore the LSG’s system to please the owner, while amaze the guests who were to charter this magnificent yacht.

GoSun Fusion - Solar Cooker cooks day or NIGHT!
(To view the images, please click on the product/project name.)
THE GOSUN FUSION A SOLAR COOKER THAT COOKS AT NIGHT!
The GoSun Fusion is the first solar hybrid portable oven that integrates GoSun’s patented solar cooking technology with a solar-electric heating system that allows the user to cook at night
GoSun’s patented technology has been recognized by the likes of FastCo. and the White House for its breakthrough innovation. With the ability to cook in light clouds and freezing weather, reaching internal temperatures up to 550°F/280°C while remaining cool to touch, GoSun’s patented vacuum tube technology is bringing solar cooking to the mainstream.
How It Works
GoSun solar ovens incorporate a proprietary vacuum tube technology that allows for fast cooking, portability, simple operation, and safe cooking without propane or charcoal. Sunlight is focused by parabolic reflectors onto the vacuum tube that converts up to 80 percent of the sun’s rays into heat that builds up to temperatures of 550oF or 288oC. Despite the high cooking temperatures, the exterior of the grill remains cool to the touch. The vacuum tube also doubles as an insulator that keeps the food hot, regardless of wind or freezing cold.
The GoSun Fusion integrates a thermal heating element into the base of the cooking tray, needing no more than a twelve-volt battery to cook a full meal. The heating element is captured in a stainless-steel encasement, allowing for an even distribution of heat within the vacuum tube chamber. The Fusion will be available for $399 with additional upgrades and accessories also available.
