Music is a great source of pleasure. Multi-room audio systems enable the whole family to listen to their individual choices at any time from almost anywhere in the house.

Lifestyle Technologies will professionally design and install a completely concealed, state-of-the-art audio system to enhance this pleasure whilst maintaining interior design aesthetics.

The latest multi-room audio systems deliver superb sound quality, are easy to operate and can integrate many different input sources, including radio, CD players, DVD players, MP3 players, the Internet and the increasingly popular hard disk servers capable of storing vast music collections.

In addition to home installations we have comprehensive expertise in integrated audio systems for the leisure and hospitality industry and for commercial and professional applications, including public address systems, language translation, Pro-Sound and DJ systems.

We are associated with manufacturers who produce the finest audio equipment designed specifically for true multi-room integration, ensuring the selection of the ideal system for each individual client.

Recent advances in technology make it possible to integrate sight, sound and light in a way that is hard to describe but impossible to resist once experienced.

Whole-house video entertainment is a reality. True High-Definition flat TV screens or high resolution projectors with concealed speakers in living areas, waterproof TVs in bathrooms, flip-down screens in kitchens, screens recessed into furniture, floors and ceilings and dedicated home theatre areas… the possibilities are endless.

An integrated, interactive installation can access video from diverse sources - satellite and terrestrial signals, DVD, games consoles, music video, hard disk servers, digital cameras, computers, Internet and security systems. Selected signals can be distributed to displays anywhere in the house through our seamless integration systems.

Home cinema takes the experience to a higher level. A custom-built home theatre with large screen, surround sound and automated lighting and curtaining will create an engrossing environment for the enjoyment of films or sport.

Today boardrooms, conference and training facilities utilise video technologies. A professional integrated installation will maximise the impact of any presentation, ensuring total participant focus.

At Lifestyle Technologies our consultants, designers and technicians are trained and certified by Dolby Laboratories, DTS Cinema Systems, INFOCOM (ICIA) and CEDIA. Their skills and experience enable them to identify the best equipment and create the optimum system for each situation.

Lighting is an essential aspect of interior design and one of the most elusive to perfect. Light interacts with everything. It interacts with furniture, décor and architecture. It interacts with lifestyle. It creates ambiance.

A customised lighting ‘scene’ can create a sophisticated effect, which reflects settings, moods and times of day.

Lighting can be set to switch automatically at predetermined levels, and in virtually any sequence. Linked to an audio-video system, lights can dim automatically as the DVD begins. Subdued lighting will give a cinema feel to a home theatre.

A lighting control system is also an important ingredient in an effective security system with lights preprogrammed to flash automatically or to floodlight an area. Automatic pathway lighting can also be installed together with other security triggers.

Lifestyle Technologies can design and install a lighting control system for any situation - from an individual room to an entire building, or for any interior and exterior lighting combination - with elegant keypads and remote controls replacing conventional switches.

Being CEDIA members we are skilled at integrating lighting control with other electronic systems to add extra convenience, security and reliability, and to reduce energy consumption.

Advances in lifestyle technology have ushered in a new generation of automated control systems, bringing greater levels of convenience and sophistication to everyday life.

Whilst the individual electronic components may be complex, an automated control system can operate all devices quickly and easily.

Lifestyle Technologies can install a discreet, fully integrated system, that is intuitively simple to operate and that eliminates the need for switches, thermostats, wires and individual remote controls.

Audio, video, lighting and curtains. Heating, ventilation and air conditioning. Security systems, telecommunications, Internet and intercom. Spas, swimming pools, garage doors, and irrigation. All can be channelled through a centralised automation system.

Stylish and attractively designed wireless or wired touch panels and in-wall keypads, which can be customised to blend with interior designs, provide secure yet easy control of all functions and can be accessed from different locations - including remotely via the Internet - to suit individual preferences.

Commercial installations can incorporate all of a building’s electronic functions into a centralised, automated system, streamlining operations and providing effective security, control and economy.
