For homeowners rebuilding in Pacific Palisades & Malibu

You're rebuilding.
This page is for you.

There's a window — roughly 60 days from permit — where every technology decision for the next 20 years gets made. Once the walls close, that window closes with them.

One chance. One window.

When framing begins, a clock starts.

Every wall that closes is a decision that gets locked in for the next two decades. Where the wiring runs. How the network is designed. Whether your lighting, audio, security, and shades will work as one unified system — or fight each other every day for the life of the home.

This conversation rarely happens early enough. By the time most homeowners think about it, the moment has already passed.

The families who get this right are the ones who had this conversation before framing was done. Not after. This is that conversation.

The complete pre-wire plan

What your rebuild should include — and when

Pre-wire is not just pulling cable. It's the complete technology plan for your home — designed before a single wall closes, engineered to work as one unified system, and installed so that when you move in, everything works from day one.

Lighting control

Architectural scenes that set every room with one touch.

Whole-home audio

Invisible sound, inside and out, from the kitchen to the pool.

Theater & media rooms

Cinema-grade picture and sound, engineered into the room.

Security & access

Cameras, gates and door access you can see and control anywhere.

Enterprise-grade WiFi

Seamless coverage across the entire property, not just the house.

Motorized shades

Light and privacy that follow the sun — automatically.

Rack & control system

One professional brain that runs everything, quietly.

All of it designed as one system.

Not assembled from separate vendors. Not figured out after drywall goes up. One plan. One integrator. One install done right.

Not the same house

Your next home deserves to be built better.

You're building the home you always wanted it to be — with better materials, better planning, and better decisions at every stage.

Technology is the one category where most people still wait, assuming it gets figured out at the end. By then the options are limited, the costs are higher, and the result is never as clean or as reliable as it should have been.

  • Know exactly what your home needs
  • Know when each decision has to be made
  • Avoid the most expensive mistakes — before they're built in

A 30-minute conversation is all it takes. That session is free.

Who you're talking to

Hi, I'm Lior Hamuel.

I've been designing and integrating smart home systems for luxury homes across Los Angeles for over 20 years — custom builds, major renovations and estate properties.

I know what a correctly planned system looks like from day one — and what a patched-together system looks like five years in. The difference in how those homes perform, and what they cost to fix, is not small.

I operate at the Control4, Lutron, and Crestron tier. Professional-grade systems, engineered for long-term reliability and designed to disappear into the architecture of your home.

If you're rebuilding, I'd like to spend 30 minutes with you. No pitch. No pressure. Just a clear, honest conversation about what your rebuild should include and when each decision needs to be made.
