Is there such a thing as the average modern family? It's hard to know: while you can look at any number of criteria  that might shape the family model or their lifestyle requirements – such as ages, activities and professions – it's another matter to find a family that lands in the central band of all of them.

In any event, here's a modern smarthome home in Belgium that has been tailored to the specific needs of a professional couple’s young family and business  – and thanks to the control solutions inside, it is far from average. 
The front of the this stunning property houses the office space, which is shielded from the adjoining roads;  to the rear is the secluded family space, complete with full Crestron home automation for comfort and integrated luxury.

Leuven-based integrator Verbinnen Audio Video Projects was charged with expanding upon the existing AV installation to incorporate the latest Crestron whole-home technologies. After close consultation with the family this was to include the manufacturers' DigitalMedia operating platform and multi-room audio distribution systems, as well as touchscreens for future-proofed and intuitive operation.
