Savant Experience Center, NYC

If you haven’t heard of Savant Systems, it is definitely worth checking out!

If you haven’t heard of Savant Systems, it is definitely worth checking out!  Imagine having a control panel at your fingertips that allows you to manipulate just about everything electronic in your home or business.  Using your iPad, iPhone, iPod Touch, or HDTV, you can control lighting, climate, security, and entertainment.  If it has an on/off switch, it can be integrated with Savant Systems.  You don’t even have to be home for the system to work!

I recently visited the Savant Experience Center in NYC.  The overall interior design at the Experience Center was done by the amazing Thom Felicia.  His design combined with the Savant technology really gives you the full impact of the system’s potential.  The integration of style and luxury with this level of easy control is just so cool!

The various areas of the Experience Center demonstrate how seamlessly the technology interacts with the beautiful decor.  From any point, you can instantly adjust the lighting or temperature or select options for home entertainment.  If you’re away from home and want to turn lights off and on to make the home look occupied, Savant makes it possible.  More than that, Savant gives your home the ability to think ahead and plan for you.  Imagine pulling into your driveway late at night.  The garage door automatically goes up, lights turn on to guide you safely through the entry and hall, and the home security system engages behind you, all without you having to press a button or flip a switch.  Remotely close blinds, lock doors, and turn on exterior lights.  Receive alerts when the kids get home from school or if the garage door has been left open.  Savant includes options to limit access to video systems for children and allows you to remotely view home security cameras.  While managing this technology might seem like a daunting task, Savant has worked hard to create a system that is free of frustration and simple to use.

Savant Systems have a lot of appeal for businesses as well.  Being able to manage lights, media, and security gives business owners a level of control that helps with efficiency and lets them focus on other tasks.  Just like in a residential setting, the Savant System doesn’t interfere with amazing design.

Here are a few photos I took myself when I visited the Experience Center.  It was great to see first-hand how the system works and how easily it can be incorporated into a home without compromising on the interior design.
