Thomas Zervas, manager of Cherry Creek’s Bang & Olufsen, shares his favorite tech tools.

LIGHTING CONTROLEvery home theater should have lighting control or a dimmer. Using these controls creates ambiance and makes the space more comfortable. Proper lighting can also highlight elements of the interior. Not only do you save energy by dimming, you extend the life of your bulbs by up to 20 times their normal life.

SAFETYNo one wants to enter a cold, dark home. With lighting control you can illuminate your home before you arrive. Lights can connect to the security system, so that if the alarm goes o�, all the lights turn on—you can’t turn them o� by the wall dimmers—and the outside lights flash, making it obvious to first responders.

FURNITURE PRESERVATIONThe Denver sun can wreak havoc on interiors. Motorized shades can be programmed to lower at a specific time every day to save your interior as well as heating and cooling costs.

TEMPERATURE CONTROLHeating and cooling accounts for more than 40 percent of a typical home’s energy use. Controlling the temperature with a programmable thermostat can help save 16 percent of the energy used on heating and cooling.

BEATSMulti-room sound allows you to control and access music from each room. Don’t miss a minute of your favorite NPR programming as you move from one room to another while you’re starting your day. Multi-room sound is critical when you’re entertaining as well.

GADGETS

INTERIOR DESIGNER, Stacy Ewing, helped a Colorado

couple create a space for entertaining, wine storage and

enjoying one of their favorite pastimes: music. It was

important to the homeowners to have more than one

purpose for the space. But even more important was the

desire for a colorful, somewhat whimsical look.

“The purple leather chair was the first choice we made

for this room,” Ewing says. “It’s a modern take on a wingback,

and she just loved it.” From that point, Ewing knew she had

creative license to move forward with a funky, eclectic design

with a sophisticated air.

One corner of the room is home to a wrought iron and

stone wine storage table topped with a matching tiered server

for entertaining. Behind it, the painted wall looks like an aged

stone wall.

Ewing introduced a crocodile-textured, tufted ottoman

in a bright red hue. It’s just one of many hides in the room

including a cowhide rug with cheetah- and zebra-print

accessories. Against the walls—with an ombre paint wash

fading up from a fiery red to a soft golden —the black and

white pops of color and purple accents add the whimsy the

homeowners sought for this space.

with drywall to get a contemporary look. That wall

then became the screen,” Sunday says. “Projectors were

installed in the ceiling and now the family can watch

a large-screen movie while enjoying a fire in their

fireplace.” In the same room is a television supported

entirely by a modern side-mount hinge, allowing the

large screen to swivel, like a door swing. This project

encompassed a tulip shaped sub-woofer that sits on a

bookshelf, instead of hidden away. Automated black-

out shades support the theater feeling with the touch

of a button, and strategically placed surround sound

completes this families’ viewing experience.
