Briar Ridge (Northville, MI)

The home cinema. The main projection screen is a 135-inch acoustically transparent cinema screen (the front speaker array located behind the screen, resulting in a clean look with no visible front speakers). Also visible at the lower right is the recessed subwoofer with custom cloth grille and surround trim. At far right (center) is the smart lighting control, which can be operated manually, or remotely through tablets and smartphones in the home (or algorithmically as part of a lighting control program). This home is controlled by a Control 4 home automation system, providing complete cinema, lighting, source, and audio control from tablets and smartphones throughout the home.
