With the plethora of technological advances available today, does anyone else wonder why we cannot have a beautiful universal remote control? Home automation has allowed for the transition of control to cell phones and tablets, but what if you just want to change the channel on your tv?
I love the uncluttered appeal of side tables with drawers for these necessary gadgets to be tucked-away when not in use. Other options include decorative boxes or faux books to house controls attempting to take over the thoughtfully designed living room. If you prefer the ease of accessibility with having electronics "at hand", consider the artistic touch of keeping gadgets on a stand. Hunter Douglas has embraced the notion that controls can be both functional and attractive-so attractive in fact, that inquisitive little hands might not notice the alluring buttons. Hopefully other manufacturers with soon follow suit.
