This project merged 19th century architecture with state-of-the-art lighting to create a gorgeous and usable music room.
This project merged 19th century architecture with state-of-the-art lighting to create a gorgeous and usable music room. TSP Smart Spaces previously worked with the client for another integration project and was happy to rethink the lighting for this music room to make it usable for the whole family. They needed to make the room brighter, create flexible lighting, and ensure all controls were integrated with the rest of the smart home system including audio and fireplaces.
Because of the historical architecture, the integrator designed the lighting to highlight the one-of-a-kind details and art. This museum-esque setup has scenes that accentuate the ornamentation of the room and play on the shadows. The technology is discreet, ensuring a timeless look.
TSP Smart Spaces faced some challenges during the project, including the delicate details and plaster on masonry architecture. Because the project was completed during the COVID-19 pandemic, the client requested as little contact as possible, which meant all design reviews were done remotely using imaging technology. Even walkthroughs with project partners were remote – lighting design partner Fourth Dimension Lighting relied solely on virtual walkthroughs and limited architectural plans for their design, never setting foot in the space.
Some additional details about this beautiful room include the fact that the homeowner can control each aspect with the Savant Pro app and the ceiling has different color levels, such as dusk, that turn on at specified times during the day. The music room is, as the integrator explains, the “gem of the home,” but the entire 15,000 square foot property is expertly automated, and the technology seamlessly works together.
The judges praised this project. One noted the “Stunning end result under challenging circumstances,” calling it “perfection.” Another complimented, “Stunning space, beautifully lit, especially with the historic limitations.” All-in-all, a beautiful, award-winning room.
