    Lutron Smart Bridge could well entice connected home hobbyists - June 2, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Having a smart connected home sure sounds like a nifty idea. Not everyone, however, has the money or desire to pay a professional installer to create it for them. Recognizing this, veteran lighting and electrical switch firm Lutron suggests you try its Smart Bridge gadget.

    For $149, this unassuming little white box links the company's intelligent lights, motorized window shades, and Honeywell Wi-Fi thermostats together into one brainy household network. And as part of the Lutron Caseta Wireless System, with everything installed you can command your heating, lights, and other fixtures via iOS and Android mobile apps.

    So what can the Lutron Smart Bridge really accomplish? On the surface it appears like quite a lot. The box plugs into a free port on your home network router using an Ethernet cable. It then scans the network for compatible smart home devices. These include Lutron-branded Caseta light switches, Serena motorized window shades, and even third-party Wi-Fi thermostats built by Honeywell.

    Lutron envisions the Smart Bridge will serve as the hub of its Caseta Wireless System, which links up a wide range of automated household functions. You can have the lights in any given room dim or brighten depending on the time of day, for example. Now imagine this action paired with shades lowering (as the lights ramp up) at night, or the opposite happening in the morning.

    Likewise, you can create custom themes revolving around homebound activities such as "movie," "relax," or "dinner party" and you begin to see some of the Lutron system's appeal. I certainly do, especially when my window shades raise and lower like I'm in some sort of supervillain's lair.

    Not only do the companion apps allow for control of your home's ambiance via iPads, iPhones, Android smartphones and tablets from anywhere with an Internet connection, they also power useful abilities. They can automatically shut down lights, lower shades, and crank down the thermostat when the system detects the house is empty for extended periods. According to Lutron, the Smart Bridge manages this task by keeping tabs on the relative distance of registered smartphones (within a virtual GPS fence that you configure) and thanks to technology courtesy of Alarm.com.

    Command motorized window shades with app or remote. Sarah Tew/CNET

    Additionally you can simply adjust lights and shades manually with the small Pico Remote, which is also part of the Caseta Wireless System. Of course Lutron made sure to point out that its light switches operate like old-school ones as well, meaning you can turn them on and off with that most versatile of tools, the human hand.

    I admit the Lutron Smart Bridge and Caseta Wireless System as a whole seems pretty compelling. The solution also appeared to function responsively and glitch-free when I tried it out personally, though I confess I did so in the controlled environs of the Lutron corporate offices in New York. How the gizmo operates in the wilds of a real home is another story altogether.

    Clive Daniel Home selected for Quail West model by Stock Development - June 1, 2014 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Clive Daniel Home was awarded a contract to design interiors for the Marjorca Grande, a new custom model home built by Stock Development at Quail West in Naples.

    Clive Daniel Home Interior Designers Susan Petril and Michael Hayes have guided the interior design for the 4,207-square-foot luxury residence with four bedrooms, four-and-one-half-baths, a study and outdoor living space that includes a kitchen and fireplace, plus a large pool and spa. The designers selected clean lines against the layered molding details on the living room fireplace and throughout the house.

    According to Petril, We worked with the team at Stock Development on all color selections, details and frame-outs from the exterior to the interior. For the interiors, we chose a William Sonoma Home inspired color palette with a soft contemporary feeling, almost transitional. White was the dominant color with light grays and soft touches of gray/blues combined with an accent of soft orange.

    Added Hayes, Applying the white soft paint color to most walls and trim details invites the resident to relax and cozy up. The white kitchen cabinets and light tops also make this design fluid through to the family room. The cerused oak wide plank flooring is applied to most of the common areas with glass tiles and stone is placed in many applications throughout the home.

    The lighter tones of all their colors and woods leads this models appeal because it is cool, inviting and sophisticated, appealing to Naples homebuyers.

    Quail West is a luxury community with an exceptional collection of homes developed within five distinctive single-family neighborhoods and spread over 1,110 acres. This community features two golf courses, a grand clubhouse, spa, fitness center, beach club and more.

    Commented Claudine Leger-Wetzel, vice president of sales & marketing for Stock Development, We selected Clive Daniel Home because of their amazing attention to detail, from the tile to ceiling. They have been a great partner on this project and we look forward to the opening of the model in January 2015.

    Stock Signature Homes, the award-winning homebuilding division of Stock Development, is one of the premier builders in Southwest Florida and is a preferred builder in Quail West.

    The 85,000 square-foot flagship Clive Daniel Home showroom is at 2777 U.S. 41 North in Naples.

The great room and master bedroom open to a lanai overlooking Senecas spectacular views.

    The 3,658-square-foot under air Villa San Remo model by Harbourside will feature a 29-by-20-foot great room, a formal dining room, a wet bar, a double-island gourmet kitchen and breakfast nook, a study, three bedrooms, three-and-a-half baths, an outdoor living area with a large covered terrace, gas fireplace, outdoor kitchen, pool and spa, and a three-car garage. The homes covered entry opens to a foyer and wide gallery hallway that provides a see-though view of the great room, outdoor living area and pool, and Senecas views. The great room, study, and master bedroom all open to the outdoor living area to create a captivating indoor/outdoor living experience that takes full advantage of Senecas one-of-a-kind setting. Like the Casa Arianna, beautiful custom ceiling details will be found throughout the home.

    Construction of the fully-furnished Villa San Remo and Casa Arianna models is expected to be completed by January 2015. Furnished pricing will be announced as construction progresses.

    Seneca will offer all-new designs in a refreshing palette of Spanish Eclectic, Italian Renaissance, and Colonial Caribbean architectural styles. The Seneca residences will be built by four luxury homebuilders, including Harbourside, McGarvey Custom Homes, Fox Custom Builders, and Gulfshore Homes. The Villa San Remo and Casa Arianna are the first of five furnished models that will be presented in Seneca.

    McGarvey will start construction of its Caribbean-style, 4,464-square-foot Sinatra model in Seneca in June. The Sinatras grand foyer and gallery hallway lead to a massive great room. French doors will open the great room and dining space to an outdoor living area with a summer kitchen, fireplace, island bar, sitting and dining areas, roll down screens, and a custom pool and spa. The double-island kitchen will include a counter-height outer island with bar seating. The plan includes a wet bar, a study, four bedrooms, four full and two half baths, a motor-court and porte-cochere, an oversized one-car owners garage, and a two-car garage.

    The master suite features a private garden off the bath, his-and-her walk-in closets, and a large sitting area in the bedroom with double French doors that will open to the pool and spa. One of the guest bedrooms will serve as a VIP suite that opens to the outdoor living area and a landscaped courtyard. The Sinatra will feature an interior by Clive Daniel Home and is priced at $2,395,000 fully-furnished. Construction is expected to be completed by January, 2015.

    Wrapped by the Sea Dwarf Paspalum vistas of Talis Parks Greg Norman-Pete Dye designed golf course, Senecas north and south facing lakefront homesites feature water and double or triple fairway views. Priced from the high $400s to $700,000, each of these sites is 190 to 200 feet deep, 77 to 100 feet wide, and will accommodate residences ranging from 3,200 to 5,000 square feet. Custom home and lot packages in Seneca are priced starting at $1.6 million.

    Talis Parks neighborhoods offer the choice of living in a parklike setting or within walking distance of the communitys Grand Piazza. This In the Park or In the Village approach reflects Developer Kitson & Partners commitment to creating a New Fashioned community where every aspect of the living experience is relevant to the residents daily lives.
