Brands » Living Control
In 1997 Living Control’s founders Justin Lawrence and Martin Hogbin, had a strong inkling of what consumers really wanted from the new fashion for home automation and custom installation. Amidst the furore about a brave new high tech world, they realised that while customers needed more facility and power at their fingertips, they also wanted simplicity. The two pioneers decided that the dream of ‘convergence,’ as translated by Living Control, would be more powerful for being more intuitive. By promoting this ideal, the first multi-room company to offer music selection by name rather than by number, has grown to become the UK’s most advanced supplier of specialised, luxury, easy-to-use multi-room entertainment systems.
Today, through a unique blend of versatility, innovation and reliability, Living Control systems place superior levels of control and facility at your fingertips. No other system combines a range of class-leading servers,with the intuitive practicality of making selections by name. No other system also gives you the luxury of lighting and A/V control, together with high quality video distribution and a choice of reliable wireless control interfaces.
Our small, specialised UK-based team is always quick to devise visionary implementations of state-of-the-art design. We were the first multi-room company to adapt the latest generation of Internet Tablets to provide complete wireless control of our system. We are also the first, to introduce Full HD video distribution through the Studio6 media server. Living Control has a record of challenging design orthodoxy, by offering surprises like the stunning orb-like TouchStone remote, which blends style and automation in a new, completely radical way. And we offer very practical solutions which recognise the inherent nature of popular innovations, like the iPod. It takes seconds to synchronise the iPod with our servers, enabling you to carry the innate power and flexibility of our systems wherever you go.
Living Control’s comprehensive range of multi-room solutions, provides a virtually limitless array of options and upgrades to our installers and customers. From a choice of five servers, three RoomBox System Controllers and as many as eleven touch-panels/keypads, in a range of décor-matching finishes, a system can be tailored precisely to the most ambitious of individual requirements, in homes large and small.
Embracing a blend of high performance CAT5 wired delivery, with innovative wired and wireless control options, our systems offer a new level of lifestyle convenience in the home, and are perfect for architects and developers wishing to add value to luxury housing projects. They are designed and manufactured predominantly in the UK, being installed/commissioned by experienced personnel, with minimum disruption in as little as two days
