Voice controlled lighting sets the mood in this Baltimore bachelor pad. The owner issues simple verbal orders to nearly 167 lights, including 30 color-changing Philips Hue light bulbs to accentuate the home’s modern design and create an atmosphere that’s bathed in beautiful lighting. This mood lighting can even be engaged prior to the owner’s arrival with a guest. From a smartphone app, a Home command can be launched which sets the lights in the garage to a blue color and the kitchen fixtures to a teal green.

The master bedroom, in particular, makes hearts swoon with a remote controllable gas fireplace, 4K video, and surround sound.
