Home automation can do plenty of things. Dim the lights. Set the mood. Well, speaking of moods - do you ever feel like dancing at home? Like, in your living room? Check out this interesting little project by Engineered Environments of Alameda, CA, where they basically turn a living room into a full-on night club - lights, discoball, and all.

The night starts with a quaint dinner with a couple of friends. Little do they know that...

...behind all of that jazz and modernist ways is a night club just waiting to happen.
With the click of a button, the AMX system goes into effect, making good use of the Mac-driven media server that controls the music via the in-wall touchpanel or iPad/iPhone. Meanwhile, motorized shades and LED nights move into motion, with dual video projectors to finish off the party theme. The pole, well... you can consider it a bonus.

In the other room, guests can enjoy films and TV shows on the huge 65-inch LED TV. What a cozy lifestyle this couple must have!
