Electronic
House Magazine has named SmartHouse
Integration the bronze award winner in its 2012 Home Of The Year awards for
the Outdoor Space category. The
Sarasota, Florida-based custom installation company’s winning project was an
amazing backyard home theater that included a Stewart StarGlas 102” glass rear
projection screen and a 2,000 Watt surround sound system, complete with iPad
and iPhone control of the LED landscape lighting, Jandy pool equipment, and the
pool house HVAC and multi-zone audio system all controlled by an ELAN® g! Home Entertainment and
Control system.
“We’re
honored to receive this award for the great outdoor theater we created,”
SmartHouse President Mark van den Broek said. “Homeowners increasingly want
high-quality audio and video systems, even outdoors, and we love challenging
installations such as this one.
Integrating all of the outdoor systems with the ELAN g! System was a
natural choice and gave this homeowner an outdoor entertainment area beyond his
wildest dreams.”
The Home Of The Year Awards recognizes outstanding
home installations with technologies and systems for the whole home.
Entries were received in 11 different categories
and winners were chosen by the Electronic House magazine editorial and art
staffs. Judging criteria for the Electronic House 2012 Home of the Year Awards
included all aspects involved in an installation, such as project creativity,
innovation, equipment incorporated, obstacles overcome, homeowner priorities
met, aesthetics and lifestyle benefits.
“All of us at ELAN, and indeed The AVC Group,
congratulate Mark and the entire SmartHouse Integration team for working so
creatively and professionally with the ELAN g! Entertainment and Control
System. It’s because of dedicated,
passionate supporters like Mark that the ELAN g! System is becoming the
recognized standard for state-of-the-art entertainment and control that is
simple to install, use, and maintain,” said Paul Starkey, President of ELAN
Home Systems.
The winners for the Home of the Year contest will
be featured in Electronic House magazine and online at www.electronichouse.com throughout 2012.
Earlier
in 2012, SmartHouse Integration received CEA’s TechHome Mark of Excellence
Platinum Award for their work in the San Remo Project, which also featured an
ELAN g! system.
