Control4 signs on to sponsor the nation's largest home-automation experience center featuring state-of-the-art technology and design
Salt Lake City, UT – May 21, 2012 – Control4, a leading innovator in residential and light commercial automation systems, announced today their partnership with MainStreet America® (MSA), the nation's first home product theme park and interactive shopping destination.
The 14-acre site, which is located 30 minutes from downtown Houston, on Interstate 45 in Spring, Texas, will showcase 12 fully-furnished showcase homes equipped with the latest in home technology, appliances and interior décor. Control4® smart home solutions will be featured in two of the homes: a 2,600 square foot, 3-story, contemporary, LEED Platinum Certified Mid-town home and an expansive 6,000 square foot Villa Lago Mediterranean-inspired home. Control4 is working with local integrator, Randal Duncan of Data Smart, to design a unique suite of automated solutions that fits the distinct needs of each home.
"Control4 is excited to collaborate with MainStreet America as we view this as an exceptional way to showcase our solutions in an interactive environment that features the latest and greatest in home technology," said Jim Arnold, Senior VP of Sales at Control4. "Integrating Control4® products in these state-of-the-art smart homes gives us a high impact vehicle to demonstrate the power of Control4 automation to thousands of prospective customers.. We are proud to be working with Randal and the team at Data Smart on this exciting project."
Main Street America is designed to be a year-round interactive home show, shopping destination. It will be outfitted with a two-story 44,000 square foot guest center, cooking demonstration studio, a custom home building office, a home remodeling center, mortgage financing services, an interior design studio, specialty café and childcare area. Visitors will also be encouraged to engage with products that interest them in the homes using high-tech handheld devices and RFID technology, and to participate in home product demonstrations, how-to workshops and home buying seminars – making the MSA complex much more than just a showcase of luxury properties, but an educational, shopping and entertainment destination centered around the home.
MainStreet America is an ideal venue for Control4 to promote and demonstrate a range of automation solutions in a real world environment that blends the best of home architecture and design with the power of technology.
"You hear a lot about smart home technology these days," noted Arnold. "This project gives homeowners a way to see what that really means with Control4 solutions controlling lights, temperature, shades, door locks, music and entertainment – all with the touch of a button or from a smartphone. It's an experience that is real and accessible."
With a grand opening scheduled for mid-October this year, consumers will have the ability to transform their inspiration into action, as they browse and interact with the latest in home furnishings and accessories that appeal to a wide range of consumer tastes.
