Inspired by our own showroom design – now bringing luxury home entertainment to another North Carolina family
At AVE Integration, we don’t just install technology — we craft experiences. That’s why we were thrilled to transform a living space in New London, North Carolina, into a sophisticated, fully integrated media center modeled directly after the one proudly displayed in our Kernersville showroom.
The homeowners wanted a clean, furniture-grade entertainment wall that could disappear when not in use, yet deliver cinema-quality performance the moment they were ready to watch. The result? A seamless, high-end media center that feels like a natural extension of the home rather than an add-on.
Hidden-in-Plain-Sight Technology: The Automated TV Lift
The star of the system is our fully automated TV lift mechanism. With the press of a button, the large flat-screen TV rises smoothly into perfect viewing position. When the movie’s over or the game ends, the TV quietly flips 180 degrees and retracts completely into the custom cabinetry — leaving behind nothing but elegant paneling and open shelving. No bulky TV dominating the room. No visual clutter. Just beautiful architecture.
Discreet Cove Lighting & Fully Automated Scene Lighting
We incorporated clean, architectural cove lighting that washes the built-in with a soft, even glow. The linear LED fixtures are tucked away so you never see the light source — only the beautiful effect. Every light in the media center is fully automated and programmable, allowing the homeowners to create the perfect ambiance with ease. From bright daytime viewing to cozy evening movie sessions, the lighting adjusts instantly to match the mood and activity.
Immersive High-Quality Sound
Flanking the TV are premium speakers integrated into the cabinetry, delivering rich, room-filling audio. The system is tuned for crystal-clear dialogue, deep bass, and immersive surround sound — all while remaining visually discreet. Paired with the automated TV lift, the entire entertainment system turns the space into a true home theater experience at the touch of a button.
Custom Craftsmanship That Matches the Home
The entire unit features the same blue-gray finish, fluted paneling, warm wood accents, and gold hardware as our showroom display. It blends beautifully with the room’s existing architecture — from the dark hardwood floors to the tall windows that fill the space with natural light. Open shelves provide plenty of space for décor and components, while the lower cabinetry offers generous storage with soft-close drawers.
This project is a perfect example of what AVE Integration does best: taking a proven showroom concept and customizing it to fit the exact needs, style, and layout of a client’s home.
