Tech Talk

HRES recently sat down with Christopher William of Christopher William Lifestyle Technology to discuss his company’s custom systems for smart homes and businesses

They are designers at heart and approach each project from a holistic point of view, whether for lighting, home audio, climate, security or networking, they are done with the utmost concern for safety and wellness. We are very excited to have his company as one of our valued media partners. 

So what exactly is Lifestyle Technology?
To us, Lifestyle Technology refers to connected devices within a residential or commercial space that forms one seamless, easy-to-use system. The solutions we provide our clients include Smart Lighting, Motorized Shades, Audio & Video Solutions, Climate Control, Security, and Networking & Wi-Fi. Some examples are Home Theater, Wireless Lighting Control and zoned Climate Control. We love building Lifestyle Technology systems to give our clients more joy, better health and easy home management.

How did you get started in the Home Technology space?
I started my home technology journey 10 years ago working for other companies in the industry and realized I wanted to help clients fine tune their home’s atmosphere and to simplify its management with better design. My holistic approach involves collaboration with architects, interior designers and developers to determine the best possible solutions for our clients. The service aspect in our industry is often overlooked, yet this is my top priority for every client.

What are the must-have lifestyle solutions for your clients these days?
Smart Lighting and Motorized Window Treatments are the most popular because they play off one another to deliver refreshing sleep, maximum productivity and an ideal atmosphere for entertaining. Also, Motorized Blinds can help manage sunlight to preserve valuable furnishings and art. Another top solution in the Hamptons would be Networking & Wi-Fi to address chronic connectivity issues.

What makes Christopher William a luxury technology company?
When a client wishes for reliable, creatively designed and fun solutions for their home, we deliver their vision with white-glove service and post-installation care. Our clients’ habits and personal lifestyles are crucial to the final result, which is achieved with our incredible partners in the industry, such as: Crestron, Leon, and Lucifer Lighting, amongst others. We always seek to curate luxury products that deliver reliability and match the home’s interior design.

Where can people find you?
We are primarily based in Midtown, NYC, however we serve clients in the Hamptons, Greenwich and Palm Beach areas. Our team would love to hear all about your hopes, dreams and challenges as it relates to Smart Home Technology and Lifestyle Design. Go ahead and send an email to: [email protected] and tell us how we can be of help to you!

Pro Tip: Technology is best planned for at the beginning of the project so all the wiring can be done before the walls are closed, which allows for multiple solutions to be streamlined into a centralized control system.
