Here’s a bright idea: Complete integration between your entertainment system and your lighting package. Today’s enlightened world demands an audio — and visual — experience. That’s why you should call The Phonograph before breaking ground on new home construction.
Used in an increasing majority of new home designs and renovation projects, automated lighting is one solution to energy management. Lighting control offers enhanced safety and security, for example: We illuminate any hallway or stairwell; we light for quick exit in the event of an alarm; we can design lighting upon home arrival or at preset weekly intervals; we can light your home to appear “lived in” while you are away. But dimming for architectural effect is only the beginning…Convenience is what converts customers into lighting control enthusiasts. The ease of setting lights in a large home without walking everywhere is hard to live without once experienced.
The Phonograph team offers as many lighting options as your imagination affords. We can design one button on & off activation for as many lights as you desire. By running lights at an appropriate level we significantly decrease energy consumption. We can also create lighting scenes that showcase artwork or popular entertainment areas in the home.

Consolidated Control: Rather than having thermostats, security keypads, audio keypads, and six-gang light switches, imagine this… Simple, intuitively programmed touch panels to do it all. Control lights, A/V, climate, security, automated shades & drapes, and view surveillance from one place. Even communicate with a gate or front door intercom station…
Simple Automation: It’s 6:30pm. You’re running close on time getting the kids to tae kwon do… Every light in the house is on, and so are the televisions in the living room, the family room and the game room…. You round up the kids, walk out the door to the garage and press “away” on a keypad and voila!!! All of the televisions and lights have turned off, and you armed the security system… and all you did was press “away.”
A Day in the Life of an Automated Home: Every morning you wake at 6:00 to start your day. Ten minutes earlier the system has illuminated a pathway to the bathroom, but the lamps are only illuminated to 25% so they don’t hurt your eyes… The curtains have started to open at a very slow rate to allow the sunlight to come in. The heated floor and towel racks have your bathroom nice and cozy awaiting your arrival… While in the shower, the audio from CNN starts to play from the in-ceiling speakers. You walk into the vanity area where the television behind the mirror is on to your favorite morning news. You finish up and leave for work and do nothing… The system senses that no one is in the area and turns itself off…
The possibilities are limitless…
