Smart spaces that stay easy to live with

We design complete smart-home systems, bring existing KNX and Loxone installations up to date, and give integrators the software layer they need. The technology is chosen to fit the project, not a brand.

01 · Complete smart home

A complete smart home, for new builds and renovations

While a home is still being designed or renovated, automation can be planned in from day one. Lighting, climate, security and everything else end up controlled from a single interface.

  1. Assessment and design

    We start from how you want to use the space, and work with your architect and electrician on the technical plan and the choice of equipment.

  2. Integrated systems

    Lighting, zoned heating and cooling, alarms, cameras and smart locks, multi-room audio, motorized blinds and energy monitoring.

  3. Installation and setup

    We coordinate the installation, configure the automation server, build the dashboards and scenes, and connect the cloud services you need.

  4. Handover and support

    We walk you and your household through the system, leave the documentation behind, and provide technical support after handover, on terms agreed for each project.

02 · KNX and Loxone upgrades

We upgrade the KNX and Loxone installations you already have

An installation that works can still grow awkward to use over the years. Rather than replace it, we keep the wiring and hardware and build a current software layer on top.

What stays

  • The electrical installation and wiring
  • Your existing actuators, modules and sensors
  • The investment you have already made

What we can add

  • New dashboards and interfaces
  • Automation scenes that adapt to how you use the space
  • Cloud integration and voice control
  • AI-based features, where the installation supports them
  • New devices on other protocols
  • Custom integrations with outside services

What can be added depends on the existing installation, so we assess it before proposing anything. Other automation systems are possible too, after the same assessment.

03 · For integrators

The software side, for integrators and electricians

Do you work with KNX or Loxone as an integrator, electrician or architect? We take care of the software, so you can offer your clients more without hiring a development team.

  • Dashboards and integrations

    Modern interfaces, advanced integrations and automations for the projects you install.

  • Voice, cloud and AI

    Features layered on top of the installation, wherever the hardware supports them.

  • Training and technical support

    We get your team up to speed on what we build and help with technical issues, including long-term help for your end clients.

We can work project by project or as an ongoing collaboration, whichever suits you.

04 · Ecosystems

We work with KNX, Loxone, Zigbee, Z-Wave and Matter

We don't push a single brand. We can start from scratch or from what is already installed, and we pick the technology to fit the project.

  • KNX

    Open standard for building automation, usually on dedicated wiring.

  • Loxone

    Automation platform built around a central controller.

  • Zigbee

    Low-power wireless mesh protocol.

  • Z-Wave

    Wireless mesh protocol designed for home automation.

  • Matter

    A newer standard meant to let devices from different makers work together.

Compatibility is never assumed: we check the devices, versions and existing installation before we commit to an integration.

Tell us what's installed, or what you're planning

Describe the space, any existing system and what you'd like to change. We'll tell you what's possible once we understand the installation, not before.
