Lake house at Balaton
Turnkey construction of a timber-frame guest house, with a built-in smart-home system for energy use and remote monitoring.
Smart Home
We install KNX, Shelly, and Loxone-level systems, in existing buildings and new builds alike, matched to your needs.
The short version
- We design and install smart-home systems at KNX, Shelly, and Loxone level.
- Systems can go into existing buildings too, without opening up walls for new wiring.
- Heating, lighting, shading, and security, controlled from a single interface.
- Can be ordered alongside timber construction or electrical work as one project.
Services
01
System design
We assess your needs and the existing electrical setup, then recommend the right system.
02
KNX installation
A wired, industry-standard solution for new builds or full renovations.
03
Shelly installation
Wireless or existing-wiring-based devices, for a faster, less invasive install.
04
Loxone installation
A centrally controlled, expandable system for more complex automation.
05
Integration and commissioning
Connecting the chosen system to heating, lighting, shading, and security, then testing it.
Who it's for
- Anyone wanting to add smart-home features to an existing home
- Anyone planning smart-home features into a new build from the start
- Anyone who wants to monitor a holiday home or rental property remotely
- Anyone who wants clearer, more controllable energy use
Step by step
- 01
Needs assessment
Which functions you want to control, and what the existing electrical setup looks like.
- 02
System choice and plan
Choosing KNX, Shelly, or Loxone-level solutions based on your needs and budget.
- 03
Installation
Fitting the chosen devices, with or without new wiring depending on the property.
- 04
Commissioning and handover
Testing the system, then walking you through how to use it.
Terms
- KNX
- An international industry standard for building automation, using a wired bus system. Mainly worthwhile for new builds or full renovations.
- Shelly
- A Wi-Fi-based family of smart devices that can be installed on existing wiring. Typically practical for retrofits.
- Loxone
- A system built around a central controller, able to integrate KNX and Shelly-level devices into a single interface.
When each system makes sense
Recommended technology
- New build or full renovation
- KNX or Loxone, since wiring can still be planned freely
- Existing, finished property
- Shelly or Loxone-compatible devices, since no wall work is needed
Installation type
- New build or full renovation
- Alongside construction, in step with the electrical work
- Existing, finished property
- Retrofitted onto existing switches and wiring
Expandability
- New build or full renovation
- Flexible to expand at the design stage
- Existing, finished property
- Expandable gradually, device by device
