Enjoy the Holidays in a Whole New Way

The holidays look a bit different this year, but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the festivities while staying at home in Austin, TX. Home automation brings a new layer of excitement to an already fun time of year by making life easier and more enjoyable.

We strive to bring trusted technology trends to our clients’ homes so they can enjoy themselves with multi-room audio, private home theaters, lighting control, and more. Read on below to learn two ways Relative Home Systems can incorporate smart home control and help you add a little more pizazz to your end-of-year celebrations.

Livens the Mood

There’s nothing quite like hearing your favorite holiday playlist for the first time each year. Why not stream your favorite songs from your personal music collection or favorite TIDAL playlists on your whole-home audio system? Colorful LED lighting can also help energize the mood while you’re playing your seasonal playlists, too. Bathe the room in holiday colors—red and green, blue and white, or any combination you choose!

Mariah Carey’s seasonal favorite, “All I Want for Christmas” will get stuck in your head in no time—just tap a button on your Control4 Neeo remote, and the song will stream from every speaker you pass as you walk from the festively lit kitchen to the family room to the outdoor patio.

Saves You Time & Energy

You’re busy making lists and checking them twice, so save some of your precious time and utilize automated smart devices. You can set scenes, so your home’s technology solutions operate automatically on a preprogrammed schedule or with a simple finger tap. There’s no need to walk throughout your expansive property to turn off lights or close the shades at the end of the day anymore.

For example, a ‘Goodnight’ scene will automatically lower all shades to provide privacy, lighting will dim to a warm glow to support the circadian rhythms of the entire family, and your smart security system will arm itself. This all happens with just a tap of a finger or a voice command! You can also schedule your landscape lighting to turn on at sunset and off at sunrise, ensuring your Austin-area home is well lit in the evenings to prevent theft but doesn’t waste energy during the day.
