Nestled among the rolling estates of north central New Jersey is a recently completed 22,000-square-foot mansion on 11 acres that represents the height of luxury.
Among the usual features associated with such homes— the large and well-appointed kitchen with industrial-grade appliances, the sprawling master suite with grand bath and giant his and-hers walk-in closets, the fully equipped gym area, the climate-controlled wine cellar, the multi-bay garage complex stocked with one or more exotic cars, the attached pool and cabana, and, of course, the dedicated home theater—is the extraordinary media/ entertainment space you see here. Dubbed the Sports Room by the homeowner, it’s one of the still rare examples of a commercial video wall used in a residential application, and it is indeed the ultimate game day oasis.

The Big Clean
Chances are you probably do not think about the state of your electronic devices too often.

Bridging the Analog-Digital Gap on a Recliner
When I shopped for a motorized recliner, I rejected models with their own Internet Protocol address and built-in speakers. No need. I had already placed a smart speaker on an étagère beside the space where I had planned to put the chair. I'd have a smartphone in my hand and the room would be bathed in Wi-Fi.
