How Smart Home Technology Can Help Aging in Place

aging-in-place-1

Smart home technology isn’t just for the young. 

Any new technology – and especially new technology in emerging and growing categories like smart home technology – tends to get a reputation of being for younger audiences. But that’s simply not the case. The team here at AV Design Consultants prides itself on being knowledgeable on the best ways, practices, and use cases for the technology we sell, and we thought it would be great to guide our customers through a not-often-talked-about, but quite important, use of smart home technology: to help older adults as they are aging in place.

There are many ways that technology can help keep users independent while assisting with their lifestyle. And as aging in place becomes more common – where older adults stay in their homes longer or multiple generations live together under one roof – using this technology is only going to become more and more important. There’s a big future for such technology out there, and it just goes to show that smart technology can help improve everybody’s homelife. Let’s take a look at how.

How to Have a Spook-tacular Smart Home Halloween

smart-home-halloween-1

It's time to trick or treat with technology. 

Here at AV Design Consultants, we were scratching our pumpkins to try to come up with how we could use the technology in our customers’ smart homes to turn up the volume on their Halloween celebrations. Luckily, we didn't have to think too hard: Technology and Halloween have gone dismembered limb in dismembered limb since Frankenstein's time. No matter how you like your haunted holiday, there are plenty of ways you can take advantage of your smart home to help spread the haunts, howls, and scares. 

So, this week on the blog, things are going to be a little bit different. A little bit creepier. A little bit crawlier. And maybe even a little bit candy...er. Let's look at all the boo-tiful benefits you get from having a smart home, and how such technology can help you have the happiest -- and hauntiest -- Halloween possible.

How Your Home Can Benefit from Structured Cabling

How Your Home Can Benefit from Structured Cabling

Organize Your Electronic Connections

When it comes to Bentonville’s smart homes, most of the conversation is centered around two subjects: what they can do and what they will look like in your space.

What your technology does is essential – after all, why invest in something that doesn’t offer the features you want? And what it looks like can have a huge impact on your Arkansas home’s décor.

But there’s something else that many homeowners can benefit from; part of the discussion that may be less exciting but may also have a bigger impact on your entire system.

In this blog, we’ll discuss structured cabling and how your property can benefit from an expert installation.
