From Underused Space to Unforgettable Experiences

Every home has that space, the one that collects more dust than memories. For Elite Media Solutions’ founder, Brian Gibson, it was the basement. 

Once filled with a ping pong table and exercise gear, the space was functional but uninspiring. Brian knew firsthand what transformative technology could do, so he envisioned a place where family, friends, and future generations could gather for moments they’d never forget.

The goal of this basement remodel? A space where tech would enhance rather than overpower, seamlessly blending into the design to create a versatile retreat everyone can enjoy.

Over time, the plan evolved through thoughtful layout changes and inspired choices. What began as a concept became a high-performance home theater that rivals commercial cinemas, while still preserving the bar, game area, and exercise nook that make the basement a multi-functional haven.

Let’s Transform Your Property, One Roller Shade and Window at a Time

The finest homes share a secret: they come to life with natural light. As seasons shift from crisp autumn mornings to cold wintry nights and, later, to bright summer afternoons, the interplay of sunlight (or lack thereof) through windows defines the character of beautiful historic homes in our area. 

Now, a feature recently unveiled by Lutron, Natural Light Optimization (NLO), is revolutionizing how homes harness daylight. Windows become part of your smart home system, anticipating and adapting to the sun’s journey based on your property’s longitude, latitude, and window orientation! 

We dive into NLO’s benefits and features below, so keep reading to learn more.

Go Beyond Traditional Automation

What makes NLO revolutionary isn't its ability to automate shading operations. No, instead, it’s the intelligence behind those movements. By knowing your home's exact location and window orientation, NLO creates a customized choreography of shade adjustments that follow the sun's natural journey across the sky.

Think about your typical day. As morning light creeps across the horizon, bedroom roller shades gradually rise to welcome the dawn. During peak afternoon hours, when the sun usually creates harsh glare on the kitchen countertops or your home office desk, NLO has already anticipated and adjusted accordingly to maintain perfect light levels without any needed input from you. Live your life, and your shades will do the work for you!
