HISTORY OF EPITOME
Epitome Living was founded in early 2017. The primary aim of Epitome Living is to facilitate bespoke technology projects for residential and commercial clients. From a strong background in software as a developer and team lead, as well as running an event production and AV installation business, the Director (Scott) brought these skills and experiences together to create a new and fresh option for a range of services. From revolutionary home automation solutions to spectacular audio and video experiences.
WHO ARE WE
-
Scott McMurray
DIRECTOR
Following on from my career in software development, and a broad experience of event production and AV installation, I saw incredible advances in smart home technology that makes systems useable and accessible for all. I love understanding how much happens automatically behind the scenes looking after your home for you, while you enjoy living there without worrying about those things!
It is a lot to juggle but I’m good at circus skills having learnt to ride a unicycle in the past!

Richard Barnett
TECHNICIAN
I get to have the great privilege of installing our smart home systems, seeing the project through from panel build to final installation on site. I love seeing a project come together, the satisfaction of hard work paying off, then the simplicity of the system for the user. It gives me a real thrill.
Something else that gave me a thrill was to be able to make the world’s highest commercial bungee jump.

Jordan Connolly
SYSTEMS DESIGNER
I take the customer’s ideas and dreams for their own smart home to create a plan for making it a reality. I like being able to create a home that works for the user and showing people that ‘smart home’ no longer means gimmicky lights and 101 remotes or apps.
Blue sky thinking is where I’m at, but then I’ve been looking to the skies from a young age and even have a GCSE in Astronomy!

Lee Harrison
APPRENTICE TECHNICIAN
I'm rapidly learning a lot about fitting out our smart home and automated projects through hands on experience with the rest of the team. I get to support what they are doing, help to give out clients the best experience and also get to work towards being an expert in the field too. I really enjoy the constant learning and variety Epitome Living provides.
When I'm not busy on site, I keep active in my spare time. I love getting out to do motocross, play football, or enjoy airsoft.

Ruth Young
DIGITAL MARKETING MANAGER
In my previous work, I have lead social media campaigns from making YouTube videos every day for over a year to promoting charities for fundraising and other support.
I love that there’s always something new to discover and learn in digital marketing, and the same applies to smart home technology - there is such a vast array of possibilities to enhance home living! Bringing the two together to communicate the benefits of a smart home system is an enjoyable challenge for me.
