Outdoor Oasis, Scarsdale, NY
The client requested that we provide a high quality exterior sound system that would be unobtrusive, and would not disturb the esthetics of the landscaping and plantings. We proposed and installed a large scale Sonance Soniscape system for all of the outdoor spaces. The speakers and the subwoofers blend in well with the landscaping and plantings, and are barely noticeable. Another requirement was to provide a high quality outdoor wifi solution and security cameras for the pool area. We provided and installed two outdoor wireless access points for networking. We also installed several outdoor surveillance cameras.
The outdoor entertaining spaces are divided into several entertaining areas, including the main terrace, outdoor dining terrace, pool terrace and a fire pit. One concern was not disrupting the neighbors with loud music. We made sure that the speaker heads were facing into the yard and strategically angled to get the best listening experience.
We installed a Savant integrated control system, including control of music, video, lighting, HVAC and security. Our system also included lighting control of exterior lighting for all exterior spaces. We provided the client with numerous lighting scenes both interior and exterior spaces. The scenes vary from path lighting for security reasons to entertaining lighting so the clients can comfortably spend time with friends outdoors until way past sunset.
This installation was very successful. The client loves the fact that he can control all electronic systems for his interior and exterior spaces via his iPhone or iPad.
