Homeplay Limited Certified Showroom
Sunbury-on-Thames, England
Smart Home Professionals: Homeplay Limited
Interior Designer: Hill House Interiors
Homeplay’s objective when building their Control4 Certified Showroom was to create a space that would enable the team to better engage with the design-build community, as well as potential clients who care about well-designed spaces, and show what’s possible when the smart home professional is involved in the early design phase of a project. Designed to look like a luxury apartment, this showroom has virtually no technology devices or products visible when not in use—which is truly an achievement since it is packed with technology throughout the showroom.
High-end architectural interior design and Control4 smart home smart solutions thoughtfully and expertly combined in the showroom. The lobby features a beautiful vertical garden, designed to not only draw in clients with its interesting aesthetics but also showcase Homeplay's smart outdoor audio solutions with Triad outdoor speakers hidden in the wall.
Conference/dining area with in-wall and in-ceiling speaker options and custom Control4 programming to feature different lighting effects, quality of lights, and dimming. This is precisely one of the reasons why this showroom was the CEDIA Awards 2019 Winner for Best Showroom EMEA.
Cinema area which features a three-meter-wide projection screen, projector mirror lift, full acoustic treatments, luxury fabric wall system, Cineak seating, and custom-built twin motorized pocket doors. An invisible 5.1 media room sound system, which is housed within a beautiful custom cabinet with bronze detailing, utilizes a Future Automation moving panel mechanism, Amina speakers wrapped in wood veneer, and a Sony 55-inch OLED TV with Acoustic Surface. TV is hidden when not in use and flanked by invisible speakers.
An exquisite blend of design, craftsmanship, and some truly astonishing technology. A visit to the Homeplay Experience Centre is a must for anyone involved in the creation of luxury interiors.
– Helen Bygraves and Jenny Weiss, Hill House Interiors Managing Directors
The showroom features multi-room audio and video, touchscreens to control a variety of commercial and residential technology, smart lighting, and custom keypads throughout the space. This bar area opens to the cinema room to allow customers in the bar area to also view the cinema screen, creating a great communal space for entertaining
The Dolby Atmos-enabled home cinema room is separated from the rest of the showroom via a moving door mechanism gives the team at Homeplay the option to either close off the home cinema room to demo its full audio and visual potential.
