Welcome! What's On Your Mind?

Building a custom home is one of the most exciting investments you'll ever make. Every detail is carefully considered, from floor plans and finishes to outdoor living spaces and entertaining areas.

But there is one critical part of the home that often gets overlooked until it's too late: technology.

Today's luxury homes rely on much more than a few TVs and a WiFi router. Home automation, networking, security, entertainment, lighting control, and smart home systems all require thoughtful planning long before move-in day.

While builders are experts in construction, many are not technology specialists. As a result, homeowners often discover costly limitations, missed opportunities, and frustrating performance issues after the home is complete. 

Here are eight things your builder may not know about your new home's technology needs.

In today’s luxury homes, great technology is no longer just about performance. It is about how seamlessly it blends into the architecture and interior design. Across Nashville, Franklin, and Brentwood, discerning homeowners are demanding more than oversized black screens and bulky speakers interrupting carefully curated spaces.

Modern luxury design is moving toward something more refined. Technology should elevate the home without dominating it. At Mavien, we believe the best smart home technology should feel intentional, architectural, and virtually invisible while still delivering uncompromising performance.

Beyond the Framed TV: Raising the Bar with Leon

For years, homeowners looking to soften the appearance of televisions turned to framed TV solutions. While that approach helped TVs blend more naturally into living spaces, today’s luxury homes are demanding something even more elevated. That’s where Leon Speakers changes the conversation.

Leon transforms the television from a design compromise into a true architectural feature. Their handcrafted media solutions integrate beautifully with high-end interiors through custom wood framing, tailored finishes, and precision-built speaker systems that complement the aesthetic of the room instead of distracting from it.

At Mavien, every project we do is an opportunity to elevate how a home looks, feels, and functions. This recent project at a home here in Nashville was a true reflection of what happens when thoughtful design meets cutting-edge technology. Every detail was intentional, every system was integrated, and every space was designed to deliver a seamless luxury experience. Take a look at the photos and keep reading to see all the beautiful details of this project…

A Private Movie Theater That Rivals the Cinema

The centerpiece of this home is a fully customized private theater designed for immersive, cinematic experiences.

At the heart of the space is a high-performance projection system paired with a Dolby Atmos surround sound system. Unlike traditional audio, Dolby Atmos creates a three-dimensional sound environment where audio moves around and above you, placing you right inside the action.

As the chill of winter fades and the first warm days of spring arrive, homeowners across Nashville, Brentwood, and Franklin begin to rediscover one of their home’s most valuable assets, the outdoor living space.

For discerning homeowners, spring isn’t just about fresh blooms and longer days. It’s the perfect opportunity to refine, upgrade, and fully reimagine how your outdoor environment looks, feels, and functions.

At Mavien, outdoor living is more than a seasonal upgrade, it’s a seamless extension of your home’s luxury and lifestyle.

Bring Indoor Comfort Outdoors

Today’s outdoor spaces are no longer limited to a patio and a grill. With the right design and technology, your backyard can become a fully integrated living experience.

Mavien specializes in transforming exterior spaces into elegant, high-performance environments, blending audio, video, lighting, and control systems into one cohesive ecosystem. From covered porches to outdoor kitchens, every element can be customized and controlled with ease.
