Our Philosophy
Technology Should Feel
Like Magic, Not Work
True home automation does not announce itself with buzzers and buttons. It observes your rhythms, responds to your presence, and orchestrates light, climate, entertainment, and security with such intuitive grace that you forget there is technology at all.
Anticipation
Your home learns your patterns and preferences, acting before you ask.
Simplicity
One touch. One voice command. Or better yet, nothing at all—just seamless automation.
Privacy
Your data stays in your home. Local processing. No cloud dependency unless you choose it.

What We Automate
Every aspect of your living environment, unified under one system
Lighting Intelligence
Automated scenes for every moment: Good Morning brightens the home at sunrise, Movie Time dims to 10%, Dinner Party sets ambient warmth. Voice control, presence detection, and circadian rhythm tuning included.
Climate Precision
Per-room temperature control with VRF/HVAC integration. Pre-cool before you arrive home, reduce energy when you are away, and maintain perfect comfort zones without touching a thermostat.
Multiroom Audio
Stream different music to different zones—kitchen jazz while the kids play pop upstairs. Integrated with automation: walk into the living room and your playlist follows.
Motorized Shading
Blinds open with the sunrise, close at sunset, or track the sun to minimize glare and heat. Integrated with lighting and climate for holistic comfort.
Security & Access
Smart locks, video doorbells, IP cameras with facial recognition. Leaving Home scene arms security, locks doors, and closes blinds—all with one command.
Energy Monitoring
Real-time power consumption tracking per circuit. Solar integration, demand-based load management, and energy reports help reduce waste without sacrificing comfort.
KNX or Wireless?
We Design Both.
New construction gets the gold standard: KNX wired systems. Existing homes get intelligent wireless retrofits. Either way, you get the same level of intelligence and integration.
KNX Wired Automation
International Standard: ISO/IEC 14543 certified. Future-proof and vendor-neutral—no lock-in to proprietary ecosystems.
Total Integration: Lighting, HVAC, blinds, security, AV, and energy monitoring on one backbone. No Wi-Fi congestion or battery changes.
Rock-Solid Reliability: Wired communication means zero signal drops. Your automation works every time, for decades.
Elegant Interfaces: Premium keypads from Jung, Gira, and ABB that look like art on your walls.
Wireless Retrofits
No Civil Work: Replace existing switches without cutting walls. Battery-powered sensors and wireless relays go anywhere.
Start Small, Scale Up: Begin with one room (bedroom, living room) and expand as you see value. Modular and budget-friendly.
Local Processing: Zigbee and Z-Wave hubs that work without internet. Your privacy stays intact, no cloud dependency.
Voice Control: Full integration with Apple HomeKit, Google Assistant, and Amazon Alexa for natural voice commands.
Scenes That Shape Your Day
One command orchestrates multiple systems. Here is how automation becomes invisible.
Good Morning
Blinds open 20%, lights ramp to 40%, bedroom temperature increases, coffee maker starts, gentle music fades in.
Leaving Home
All lights off, AC to economy mode, blinds close, security arms, entry door locks—triggered by the last person leaving.
Welcome Home
Entry lights on, favorite playlist starts, climate adjusts to comfort, blinds open to enjoy the evening light.
Movie Time
Blinds close, lights dim to 5%, home theatre powers on, popcorn machine beeps—one button press from the couch.
Good Night
All systems off except night lights, doors lock, security activates, bedroom AC adjusts for sleep temperature.
Control Your Way
Wall keypads. Smartphone apps. Voice assistants. Or nothing at all—just automation. We design interfaces that match your lifestyle.
Elegant Keypads
Jung, Gira, ABB premium switches with tactile feedback and LED status indicators.
Mobile Apps
Control from anywhere. iOS and Android apps with custom dashboards and real-time status.
Voice Assistants
Apple Siri (HomeKit), Google Assistant, Amazon Alexa with natural language commands.
Smart Automation
Presence sensors, time schedules, and logic rules that act without any manual input.

Knowledge Base
Smart Home & Home Automation FAQs
Q: KNX vs Wireless—which should I choose?
A: KNX for new construction where you can run wiring—it is more reliable, scalable, and future-proof (20-30 year lifecycle). Wireless for existing homes where cutting walls is not feasible—faster installation, lower upfront cost.
Q: Will automation work if my internet goes down?
A: Yes. Properly designed systems have local processing—wall keypads, scenes, and sensors continue working without internet. Cloud connectivity is optional for remote access only.
Q: What is the typical cost of home automation in Bangalore?
A: Wireless automation typically costs ₹2-8L depending on scope. KNX wired automation ranges from ₹8-50L+ based on home size and features.
Q: How much energy can automation save?
A: Typical savings range from 25-40% on lighting and 15-30% on HVAC through occupancy sensing and intelligent scheduling.
