Imagine walking into a smart home where everything runs with a push of a button — or even better, a command of your voice. From automated lights to spas that boast state-of-the-art, futuristic features, next-generation home improvements have raised the bar for savvy living.
If you are a homeowner who is tech-obsessed and looking for ways to upgrade your private living quarters, these are the coolest and most creative home improvements that’ll have your home functioning to provide it with a sense of professional luxury at home.
Smart Lighting for Every Mood
No more standard light switches and hello smart lighting. With systems like Philips Hue or Lutron, you can control the brightness, color, and schedule from your phone or even with a voice assistant.
Set the mood with dark blue lights for movie night, or open up the home office with bright white lights. And they’re energy-efficient, saving money while we live in the 21st century.
Intelligent Climate Control
Nobody wants to come home when it’s 30 degrees outside and 15 inside or 30 degrees outside and 85 inside. That’s why we now have smart thermostats from Nest, Ecobee, and others.
These little devices will adapt to your habits, learn your lifestyle, and set the best temperatures based on your preferences, but they will save you energy. Just imagine you’re done with work, and you’re setting your dream temperature in the house (oh dear lord!).
Upgraded Hot Tub Experience
You relax properly only when you have a hot tub on your backyard patio. But why stop there? Show off with some of the best new hot tub accessories.
A floating waterproof speaker, a hot tub controller that you can operate from your phone and therefore adjust the jets and temperature, cup holders, and LED lighting. Yep! Your backyard patio with a hot tub just turned into a full spa.
Voice-Activated Everything
From turning down the lights to securing the house, smart devices are the way of the future. Voice-activated assistants like Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant, or Apple’s Siri sync with your favorite smart home products for a voice-activated control center.
Curled up on the couch saying, “Alexa, start my spa,” or “Hey Google, shut off the lights in the kitchen”? So comfy. And so chic.
Smart Security Solutions
Your home’s security has never been easier — or cooler. Smart security equipment transforms your home into an automated fortress.
Video doorbells like Ring and Arlo let you greet guests from any place on the globe, even your annual trip to the south of France. Smart locks, motion detectors, and cameras ping your phone in real time. You always know what’s happening at home, even when you’re away.
High-Tech Kitchen Gadgets
Next-gen houses deserve next-gen kitchens. There’s a smart fridge that lets you peer inside it from afar. You can program a coffee maker from your bed. The perfect kitchen gear to whip up your monochrome meals more quickly.
Guided cooking via a Samsung or GE Profile smart oven will certainly make sure that all your dishes come out flawlessly. Bravo in the dining room?
Home Entertainment That Wows
A 4k projector plus surround sound will bring the movie theater to your living room. And the streaming services you can use with them will bring you anything your movie-going heart desires.
VR-ready gaming and lightning-fast connections will bring the action directly to you. Whether it’s a movie, game, or concert you’re streaming from, the experience has never been more lifelike.
