5 Key Considerations for an Ideal Smart Home Design

The primary focus of a smart home should be functionality, but not at the risk of sacrificing the aesthetics of your spaces. Your smart home devices should blend with your décor to create an experience that is both convenient and beautiful.

For a smart home design that complements your style while providing convenient and reliable control of your spaces, we suggest you partner with a home automation professional like BDigital Technologies to assist you in bringing your vision to life. We provide a full range of design and installation services and represent the most prestigious brands in the industry.

Read below to explore some key considerations we’ll walk you through while discussing the smart home design of your Miami, FL home.

Scalability

An important consideration when planning your smart home design is the scalability of your system. How likely are you to add more technology to your home in the future? Even if you’re unsure, our team will plan a comprehensive system design that allows for future expansion or upgrades without costly change orders. Whether we’re working on a new-construction home or a retrofit project, we have the expertise to create a smart home base that makes it easy to add more solutions in the future without disrupting your interior design.

As a certified Control4 dealer, we can design and install a robust smart home automation system that easily integrates with hundreds of third-party smart home devices. Want to add a video doorbell or home audio system to your property in the future and control it all from the same platform? Control4 makes it easy.

Lighting Control

Smart lighting solutions should effortlessly illuminate your spaces for both function and aesthetics. Planning a lighting design at the beginning of a home build is most ideal because it allows us to work with electricians to ensure wiring and control keypads are placed in the most optimal locations for convenience and aesthetics. If you’re considering a lighting control system for your already-built home, we can design a wireless solution that replaces existing on-wall controls with custom-designer keypads for lighting scenes, dimming capability, and more.

Audio and Video

Do you desire a whole-home AV system that effortlessly lets you share and enjoy music and video in every room of your home, or do you prefer a dedicated listening room? Maybe you want both. Perhaps you envision a private theater room to bring the immersive cinematic experience to your home. We can help you decide and plan for the best use of AV throughout your property.

The room layout of your home entertainment spaces is also essential when it comes to audio-video design. For optimal listening and viewing, you must consider the acoustics, prime viewing positions, and overall aesthetics when planning your audio-video installations. Our experts have the proper know-how and experience to design an AV solution that checks these boxes and more.

Security

While design might not be the first thing you consider when planning your home security system, you shouldn't forget about it altogether. The wiring and placement of your surveillance cameras and motion sensors can affect the overall aesthetics of your home and potentially hinder the performance and reliability of your cameras if they’re not installed in an optimal location.

Climate

Smart climate control delivers the right level of comfort throughout your home in the most efficient way possible. Using presets and advanced scheduling options, you can have a thermostat that works with you and your changing lifestyle without having to force climate control into a rigid schedule.

Thermostat control location will vary from homeowner to homeowner. We can design a smart thermostat solution that separates temperature sensing from thermostat location if you’d prefer to use that prime wall space for artwork instead.

Our smart automation installations ensure all your systems run reliably now and into the future—all while maintaining the beauty of your home.
