ELECTRONICS TO BEAUTIFY AND SIMPLIFY YOUR HOME
Kevin McCroskey, partner at Twist Technology, a Birmingham based home technology company knows how to integrate electronics seamlessly into the home.
When should you hire a home technology company?
What we do used to be thought of as a luxury, but today electronics have become such a big part of our lives and the options of what can be done are endless. If you start with a company like ours rather than buying piecemeal, you get a system that works like it should, is easy to use – so you’ll enjoy using it more.
You mention luxury item. Aren’t custom systems expensive?
Some are, but they don’t have to be. Everything is upgradable today. Many of our clients start small with a simple control system and add to it.
Can you add a system to an existing house?
Sure, that’s easy. With wireless communication becoming better and better we can install home control, audio and video systems, and lighting control into any home. It’s still always best to prewire if you are building or renovating, but we have incredible flexibility and options for installation today.
You don’t have to have a dedicated home theater, do you?
Absolutely not! Designers love us because we integrate our systems into the home. If you want to see the equipment, we can do that, but often our systems are hidden so the decorating and design of a room can shine. That’s one of the biggest benefits of working with a company like ours. We approach technology from a design point of view while focusing on systems that offer simple control and usability our systems offer.

Moxie Showerhead by Kohler (above, center) This American kitchen and bathroom brand has developed a bluetooth-enabled showerhead that streams music from smartphones into the shower…or really anywhere else, because the speaker can be moved all around the house.
Geyser by Bain Ultra (above right) Inspired by hot mineral springs, hot jets of air provide a deep and intense massage therapy session in your bath. This technology allows the air to be heated and then humidified so that it holds onto its thermal energy, keeping the bath at a steady temperature for longer.
