Home Theater includes a stage for family band concerts. The adjoining bar area adds to the family entertaining area. This project won National awards from NARI and Electronic House. The Theater gear was supplied and installed by Media Rooms' electronic integration department. The Theater proscenium, Stage and Bar were designed & fabricated in the In-House Cabinet shop of Media Rooms Inc.

A fresh take on traditional style, this sprawling suburban home draws its occupants together in beautifully, comfortably designed spaces that gather family members for companionship, conversation, and conviviality. At the same time, it adroitly accommodates a crowd, and facilitates large-scale entertaining with ease. This balance of private intimacy and public welcome is the result of Soucie Horner’s deft remodeling of the original floor plan and creation of an all-new wing comprising functional spaces including a mudroom, powder room, laundry room, and home office, along with an exciting, three-room teen suite above. A quietly orchestrated symphony of grayed blues unites this home, from Soucie Horner Collections custom furniture and rugs, to objects, accessories, and decorative exclamationpoints that punctuate the carefully synthesized interiors. A discerning demonstration of family-friendly living at its finest.

Creating an atmosphere where technology seems to be as much a part of the design as the floorplanis a job for the pros. Creating meaningful automation can make a designer home into a surreal environment for living. Our design team brought in Atlanta AVS, the city’s premier audio/video full service firm, to help coordinate and implement a customized atmosphere for entertainment and adaptable lifestyle. The first challenge in adding automation to Innovation House was selecting the central control platform. There are several brands of central controls out there that offer many “seemingly” similar options for integration of computer network systems, music, video distribution, lighting, security, climate control and temperature management. It is important to note that all these options are not created equal. To ensure this home had the highest quality interface, most stable platform and ability to fully customize, our design team chose Control4 as the central automation control. In addition to the sleekest user interface, Control4 offers 7” portable and wall-mounted touch screen controllers with built-in cameras that deliver always-on, dedicated system control with full motion video intercom for communication all over the home. The door station with video and audio intercom experience adds an extra layer of security and visibility to its ancient predecessor, the doorbell. All these features are made even more usable with the MyHome App for smartphones and tablets giving you functionality and control from anywhere with 3G, 4G or internet access. With the state of the art central automation control in place, specific components were chosen to add horsepower, complete full functionality, and personalize the automation system. Components from the following brands were incorporated to finish the installation: Wyrestorm, Netgear, Cleerline Technologies, Tripp Lite and Mi Casa Verde. Photo Credit: GreinTime Productions

Although Gayle's favorite summertime spot is in the back sun porch, it is the living room that gets her vote throughout the cold months, thanks to the wood-burning fireplace. "Need I say more?!", she jokes. The feeling of the space is akin to an elegant lodge, with a cut stone hearth and plenty of wood. Gary splits logs to stack alongside the fireplace, which brings both form and function to the arrangement. Armchairs: Tommy Bahama, From Direct Buy Adrienne DeRosa Photography © 2013 Houzz

Meticulously crafted cabinets, thick slabs of marble and wood, and reflective glass and stainless-steel surfaces create a workspace that functions well for serious cooks—or “cocktails only.” Smart storage—like the floor-to-ceiling wine rack—keeps it clutter-free.

This is by far everybody’s favorite space. The kitchen is definitely the heart of the home where the dinner is getting ready, the homework is done, and in the family room the whole family can relax in front of the fireplace, while watching TV, listening to music, or playing video games. Whites with warm walnuts, light marble, and splashes of color are the key features in this modern family headquarters. The kitchen was meticulously designed to accommodate storage for numerous kitchen gadgets, cookware, and dinnerware that the family owned. Behind these simple and clean contemporary kitchen cabinet doors, there are multiple ergonomic and functional features that make this kitchen a modern chef’s dream

This home office was created from an outbuilding on the property. Seagrass wall-to-wall carpet was installed for ultimate durability and a relaxed vibe. We employed a high-low aesthetic to create a space that was unique but still within budget, utilizing the owner's Stickley desk, a custom desk chair, custom blush Roman shades, a Hudson Valley Fenwater chandelier and sconces, and multiple office items from budget sources like IKEA and The Container Store. The ceiling is painted Quicksand and walls and trim in White Dove by Benjamin Moore. Photo by Sabrina Cole Quinn Photography.

Inspiration came from the wallpaper, chosen to reflect the family's love of travel. Bright colors accent the black/blue and white color scheme. Friends can play games, create videos and relax with a movie with soft drinks right out of the coffee table refrigerator, while charging their electronic devises with the integrated USB ports!
