Case Study: Stunning Farmhouse Conversion with Bespoke Crestron Home & Custom AV Integration
For this breathtaking farmhouse conversion, 1install was tasked with delivering a state-of-the-art smart home solution that combined seamless automation, high-end audio-visual experiences, and robust security—all while maintaining the aesthetic integrity of the property. Working closely with interior designers, architects, and the client, we created a fully integrated Crestron system that offers complete control over lighting, entertainment, climate, and security.
The Vision: Blending Cutting-Edge Technology with Timeless Elegance
The client wanted a highly responsive smart home that integrated seamlessly into the character of the property. Crestron Home was used for effortless control, while Crestron Custom was implemented to manage more complex integrations, ensuring every detail was executed flawlessly.
"The 1install team exceeded all expectations. Our home is now effortlessly smart, but without any compromise on design or functionality. Every detail has been considered, and the level of control we have is simply incredible." — Homeowner
