If you’re looking to build a home theater, you’ve probably realized that there isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. There are so many components of a theater that can (and should!) be customized based on your space and personal preference. For example, you can choose between a TV or a projector and screen. You also get to choose the lighting, seating, and so much more.

You also have many options when it comes to your home theater’s audio system. There are sound bars and two-speaker stereo systems you could choose. But for a truly cinematic experience, you should consider creating a multi-channel home theater. Multi-channel theaters will give that cinematic audio you crave and will astound you with every music note and piece of dialogue. Keep reading to learn more about multi-channel theaters and what they can bring to your Portland, OR, home.

How do you define a life of luxury? For many, it's a sense of safety, security, and extreme comfort. As André Leon Talley described in Vogue, “Luxury is to be able to take control of one’s life, health, and the pursuit of happiness in a way that is joyful.”

Today, home automation offers all of that and more. It brings extreme convenience and ease of living and enhances daily joys. At Eighteen Group, we create user-friendly systems that manage your lighting, climate, entertainment, security, and more automatically or with one touch.

There are many benefits to having natural light in your home, such as a boost to your energy levels, a source of light to reduce energy bills, and sunshine that can improve your mood. Homes in the Portland, OR, area have such beautiful views; it’s no wonder people want to let the natural light in more. 

Many motorized shading options available today provide limited possibilities for allowing natural light while protecting your privacy.
