Why Design-Build Professionals Turn to Smart Integrators for Seamless Home Entertainment

Smart home entertainment is one of the fastest-growing segments of the home automation market. In 2021, revenue in this sector is projected to hit $3,267 million and reach $4,027 million by 2026. This translates to over 23% of homes having smart home entertainment within five years. Not surprisingly, 26% of those users are millennials—consumers between 25-34 years old. 

So, how do builders, designers, and architects enter this burgeoning field and give their clients in Lexington, KY, what they want in terms of high-end, integrated, audio-video solutions that fill a home with quality entertainment? Working with an experienced, smart home entertainment installer ensures a cohesive system that plays well with other home automation systems such as lighting, security, shading, climate control, and energy management. 

At Rely Technology, we partner with design-build professionals to help them create homes that are enjoyable and easy to use and elevate their client's everyday life. Let's look at what this means in-home entertainment and what these professionals should look for in a long-term partner.

The Smart Home Entertainment Sector

The smart home entertainment segment comprises multi-room and whole-home entertainment, such as sound systems, TVs, and gaming consoles. It may consist of outdoor entertainment, home theaters or media rooms, and whole-home audio that allows homeowners to play audio from various sources at the same time or fill the home with tunes from one of their favorite streaming services. 

One of the best features of these entertainment systems is that they are all controlled from one simple, intuitive interface. Gone are multiple remote controls and disjointed devices. Instead, all entertainment systems work together seamlessly, and the equipment is concealed in a cabinet or closet.

Depending on a home’s design element, in-wall and in-ceiling speakers may be partially or totally hidden from view. TVs display works of art when not in use or hide behind paintings or well-crafted paneling. Tied into the Control4 home automation system, the audio-video integrates with other smart home technology and is easily controlled with one touch on a touchscreen, customized in-wall keypad, smartphone, or remote control. 

The Integrator-Builder Relationship

As is evident, to create a best-in-class, high-end smart home entertainment system requires extensive experience and deep knowledge in integration and operating systems. We work with your build and design team to ensure that these systems operate seamlessly while blending into the home’s aesthetics.
