Lewis CaliburnThe Home Technology Association (HTA), the only third-party certifying body for home technology integration firms, has launched a new Inspiration Gallery and refreshed homepage at HTACertified.org. These resources are designed to provide tangible proof of the exceptional results homeowners, architects, interior designers and builders can expect when working with HTA Certified integrators.
HTA Certification is a prestigious mark of excellence awarded exclusively to firms that meet stringent criteria for technical competence, superior customer service, robust aftercare support and positive endorsements from architects, designers and builders. The certification process requires verified positive feedback from design and build professionals, ensuring certified integrators are uniquely qualified for luxury residential and marine projects.
The newly unveiled HTA Inspiration Gallery offers an immersive digital portfolio highlighting real-world projects by HTA Certified integrators and HTA Supporting Brands. Visitors can explore these luxury spaces to discover how thoughtful integration enhances both functionality and aesthetic harmony.
The Gallery also encourages architects, interior designers and builders to collaborate early with certified integrators, demonstrating the outstanding outcomes achievable through such partnerships.
“HTA’s new Inspiration Gallery and homepage updates are a significant step forward in showcasing how integrated technology can enhance the world’s most beautiful spaces,” says Rex Barrett, Projects Director specialising in marine projects for Ideaworks, a UK-based integrator. “By presenting actual projects—we included two of our residential and one superyacht project—the platform helps clients and design professionals see what’s possible when technology is considered from the outset.”
Brian Richards, President of Precision Media Solutions, adds, “We appreciate the opportunity to inspire potential clients on what is achievable through the HTA’s Inspiration Gallery. Clients and the design-build community can view luxury lighting, shading, and audio/video systems within actual installations, seamlessly integrated into architecture and decor. The Gallery credits each integrator, allowing clients to directly engage with firms capable of delivering these results.”
Complementing the Gallery, HTA’s homepage highlights continuously refreshed images and videos of luxury home cinemas, whole-home control systems, hidden technologies, and human-centric lighting. These are not generic examples or AI renderings; they are real-world projects delivered through collaboration between HTA Certified integrators, architects, interior designers and builders.
“With the Inspiration Gallery, we’re providing the design and build community and luxury homeowners with proof that great technology complements and elevates architectural and interior design,” says Josh Christian, CEO of the Home Technology Association. “It’s about raising expectations and helping clients, architects, interior designers, and builders recognise the immense value of involving HTA Certified integrators from the very start of their projects.”
These enhancements strongly support HTA’s mission to raise industry standards, helping homeowners and trade professionals make confident, informed decisions when selecting a home technology integration firm.
