The Art of Hiding Home Technology

In this Wipliance YouTube video, Lee discusses a waterfront property where the client wanted all the technology hidden while experiencing the best performance. One example includes using James Small Aperture speakers to create a surround sound audio system. 

These barely visible in-wall and in-ceiling speakers sit flush against the surface, delivering high-fidelity sound from a mere 3-inch opening. The compact subwoofer provides a powerful bass and is tucked away in a cabinet that vents into the room. 

Lutron motorized shades disappear entirely when not used via pockets hidden in the tongue and groove ceiling. For this project, they also turned to the Samsung Frame TV, a QLED HDR smart TV that turns into a beautiful piece of artwork when it’s off. 

Customized for Your Preferences

Every client and property is unique in their preferences and possibilities. For this reason, we partner with several premier audio and video manufacturers specializing in architectural speakers and hidden TV solutions. 

On many clients’ wishlists is the whole-home audio system that provides high-fidelity music in every room. Architectural speakers are an essential part of this system, from invisible speakers hidden in walls to in-ceiling speakers painted or plastered over by the surrounding material. The result is crystal-clear music emanating from an unseen source and filling your home with stunning audio.  

Images Revealed

Today’s video manufacturers have also devised numerous ingenious solutions to optimize a home’s entertainment while maintaining its design. Lift mechanisms can hide the largest displays in ceilings, floors, and custom-made furnishings. 

TVs can also disappear into walls with panels or paintings sliding over them. All technology blends seamlessly into your home’s décor with no cords, racks, or bulky equipment. In fact, all your AV equipment is tucked into a closet with wired and wireless solutions distributing AV signals to every TV and speaker. 

Effortless Control

Today, you can hide or diminish the appearance of almost any smart home feature, from lighting to motorized shades and every entertainment device. These systems are managed with the tap on a touchscreen or remote or via voice control. For instance, when you’re ready to watch a movie, press ‘Movie Night,’ and the lights dim, the shades lower, and the TV appears from its hiding place.
