Discover One of the World’s Most Advanced Lighting Systems

Palm Desert, CA, is known for its wide-open vistas, creating an immense backdrop for stunning sunrises and deep blue desert skies. Eventually, a violet hue takes hold before settling into a dusk, crystalline blue that becomes darkness. To say that this area of the world experiences stunning natural lighting would be an understatement.

As integrators and designers, we at AUDIOVISIONS are inspired by this natural beauty. While we serve all of California in its striking and diverse magnificence, something about a desert sunrise makes you pay attention, stop the inner chatter, and be still. The problem, of course, is that we spend so little of our time outdoors, a mere 10% according to some estimates, that, for most of our days, we miss out on this breathtaking vision.

But what if we could bring natural light indoors? With Ketra lighting and our team of experts, you can. Here, you’ll discover how to create a home filled with sunshine even on a cloudy day and without the accompanying heat of a desert sun.

Builders, Interior Designers, and Architects Turn to AUDIOVISIONS for Smart Home Integrations

The design and construction of today's custom homes often require integrating the latest smart technology. From lights that mirror the sun to one-touch control of shades, climate, entertainment, and security, the latest home automation systems have become an expected part of luxury living. Those in the field have found that one of the essential components in the successful design and installation of technology is an early-stage collaboration between builders, architects, interior designers, and a smart home technology installer. 

By partnering with AUDIOVISIONS, a well-known custom integrator serving Orange County, CA, and the entire state of California, you can be confident in creating a home with elevated market appeal, an intuitive and beautiful living environment, and setting the standards for luxury home building and design.

Here, we'll explore how we work with the design-build team, addressing each pain point and ensuring a smart home that's simple to use and behaves just as your clients want.

Creating a Greener Home and Reliable Power

As many of you probably remember, a July heatwave in San Francisco, CA, caused public safety electrical power shutoffs throughout the region, ultimately affecting over 11,000 Bay Area households. Whether intentional blackouts to reduce the risk of wildfires or an aging electricity grid that hasn't kept pace with changing climates and increasing demands, deliberate and unplanned blackouts are expected to increase across the state. 

In response, Californians are taking control of their energy and reducing their dependence on the grid. One of the most popular energy management solutions today is Savant Power. This system uses Savant's award-winning app, smart power modules, green energy, and storage solutions to monitor and manage your home's energy consumption. 

With one tap on an app, your home can go completely off-grid or prepare for a possible upcoming outage—ensuring your home and family are protected no matter the weather or the state of the PG&E-controlled power grid.

Transform Everyday Listening with Hidden Speaker Options from AUDIOVISIONS

Serious music lovers face the challenge of incorporating high-quality speakers that won’t disrupt the aesthetic harmony of their meticulously designed spaces. Though traditional speakers can serve as a conversation starter, some people find them visually intrusive and dislike how they take up valuable space, clashing with the decor and compromising the overall design vision. The Sonance Invisible Series addresses this issue effectively by installing within walls or ceilings, seamlessly blending into any California interior with the option to be painted or finished to match the surrounding surfaces.

This hides-in-plain-sight design allows for premium sound quality without any visual disruption, reserving the elegance and style of your luxurious living spaces in Palm Desert and beyond.

It’s impossible not to be impressed with its ability to learn over time, ultimately getting to know your preferences and creating an environment that aligns with your lifestyle. Do you like the shades open at sunrise and a TV tuned into the Weather Channel? Don’t be surprised when you walk into the kitchen, see every shade rising, and hear Jim Cantore excitedly covering the latest weather event.
