the screen is flat against the wall though?

Yerr I see what your saying but it’s only 4-5 metres away...

And it doesn’t really look skewed when viewing... 👍🏻💯

It will also go up to the dormer... 👍🏻

Hi Kiran

So, what sound are you going to set up in the elevator cab? Yes - thumbs up

More seriously, you made a tremendous job hiding all the wires, but did you ever consider speakers like Celestial/Palatial or Beolab 15/16?

The Celestials are going in the living room. They look amazing with the B&O aluminium cover...

Master bedroom will have 2 Palatials either side of the bed..👍🏻💯🔥

Thanks for mentioning the BL 15/16... 👍🏻💯

I never had these in mind and now I’m thinking of something clever... I love the motorised tilt on the 16...

The joys of being the installer and having a master electrician by your side enables any changes on the fly 🍻

Like seriously, what more could you ask for?

This is the next generation of super smart homes...

Lets run through the spec:

1x occupancy and daylight sensor

1x smoke detector

2x clever alarm things 😉

2x Lutron wall keypads

2x bedside momentary switches

1x bedside data point with Cat7A and fibre

1x Thermostat for the electric underfloor heating

4x Ceiling speakers spread throughout the bedroom, dressing area and ensuite

1x In ceiling Alexa centred to the bedroom

1x BL3500 in the ensuite

9x B&O surround sound connections leading back to the TV with mad connections back to the server

4x Hidden in-wall speaker connections for future use

1x Music system point with mad connections back to server

8x lighting circuits

2x led circuits

2x bi-fold door and window blinds

Let me know if I missed anything... 👍🏻

We still going strong 💪🏻🔥

Definitely a wireless Lutron keypad some where near the floor buttons or wherever suited...

A ceiling speaker?...

I still need to see this thing and figure out how cables would move up and down... solid core cables would die in less than a year with all the movement...

I suppose everything would ideally need to be wireless when it comes to the lift... I really don’t want any cable head ache...

LOL

6 old style massive bedrooms each with dressing areas and ensuites

2 huge living rooms

1 enormous kitchen / dining

1 utility room

2 server rooms

1 office

1 lift

1 fat double garage converting into bedroom ensuite

2 separate toilets upstairs and downstairs

i hope your ceilings are high enough to allow for this.

According to the photos, the renovation of the house will be financially at the level of the new building.
Given that this my profession I can say with 90% Definitively.
I'm just talking about an object, without papers, permissions .... ect
And when you build a new one, you really have all new and the architecture you want from start.
I do not mean anything bad, just my professional opinion.

It is, however, worth keeping track of progress :)

like Nike ...just do it :)

Yes if we knocked the whole house down, it would’ve been around half a million to build from scratch exactly the way we would want it...

But we aren’t allowed to knock it down and so it has cost double in doing it the way I have showed you for the last 2 years ish...👍🏻💯

We still going strong... 💪🏻🔥
