A big issue for developers of a SmartHouse is being able to identify what technology is essential without having the financial commitment of the attached hardware such as TVs or sound gear present. This was the challenge that the developers of a property in Stanley Street, Mosman NSW, faced recently when building a stunning new multimillion dollar home close to Balmoral Beach.

The potential purchaser would have a certain expectation of the level of technology in a luxury home. They would also appreciate having little more to do on moving in.

The key features installed at Stanley Street include: a distributed music system, lighting control, telephone system, network wireless and ethernet data ports, advanced security system and RF distribution.
Twenty hours of design and engineering went into the project. Working with Sydney based installers Smart Home Solutions run by James Billington, developer Anna Barros chose to go with a Dynalite lighting management system. The Dynalite system is designed from the ground up to deliver advanced capability and above all add-on program capability that allows new or additional features to be added after installation has been completed.
