Overlooking Lake Sunapee in New Hampshire sits a beautiful vacation home with a new addition that features a bowling alley, indoor pool, and a paddle tennis court. From the beginning of the project, we realized that this was going to be a rare opportunity to create a space where we could curate elements which would be front and center to the entertainment experience, yet blend beautifully with the vision of the space.

To make this addition work as a hub of family entertainment, we took the vision of the interior designer and conceptualized a space where technology would be both visible and invisible, depending on its function. The original AV design had visible speakers and traditional TVs for the bowling alley displays. We researched across dozens of vendors to find unique solutions for each space, from a subwoofer installed underneath the paddle court’s surface to recessed lighting in the pool area that can emulate ocean waves. Featuring stunning lighting scenes from Ketra, invisible speaker solutions from Amina, displays and projector from LG, and custom shades from Lutron, this entertainment complex creates a visually and functionally seamless technology experience of which most people could previously only dream.
