Your home should not have to be operated, it should understand. Lighting, sound, climate and shading follow a single touch — and where more is called for, your house becomes a place to experience: home cinema, spa, pool and wine cellar on the same control system.
Everyday life runs on a few clearly assigned buttons — lighting, music and scenes sit where you expect them. The app remains an addition for when you are out, not the daily remote control of your home.
Living rooms, home cinema, wellness and pool terrace run on the same KNX layer. An evening scene can address all of them at once — without separate apps and without isolated solutions.
Agreed with the architect and the interior design: control points, luminaires and loudspeakers fit into the materials and the design instead of standing in front of them.
Six areas that together make the difference between "kitted out" and "comfortable" — each of them planned, not plugged together.
Via DALI we control every luminaire individually — from the Occhio pendant to the indirect light line. Scenes such as "Welcome", "Dinner" or "Reading" sit on a single button press, dimmed warm white and guided through the day.
Multiroom audio plays in every room — in sync throughout the house or individually per zone. Controlled directly at the push-button sensor, with no phone in your hand. The kitchen in the morning, the terrace in the evening.
External venetian blinds follow the position of the sun and keep rooms comfortably tempered and free of glare. Every zone can be brought to its own set temperature — you feel the result, not the technology.
The morning scene opens the shading gently, brings the light up slowly and starts your music. In the evening one press takes everything down: dimmed light, closed blinds, quiet.
On one scene the screen comes down, the light withdraws into the skirting, the blackout closes — picture, sound, light and shading as one system. The spa area receives you pre-warmed, with a lighting mood of its own.
Pool lighting, garden light and terrace sound follow one evening scene — inside and out, a single language of light. The wine cellar holds temperature and humidity steady and reports deviations before they turn into a problem.
The finest solutions come about early. Five points in the build decide how much is still possible later at all.
Where light sits is decided on the floor plan. We sit at the table with the architect and the interior designer while reflected ceiling plans, furniture layout and control points can still be moved on paper — and not on site.
Cable routes, conduits and the floor area in the technical room. What is laid here costs almost nothing and later decides whether something can be added or whether it stays as it is.
Recessed loudspeakers, trimless luminaires and push-button back boxes are set before the filler goes on. From that day their position is fixed — which is why we settle it beforehand with the lighting designer.
Now we design the scenes and go through them with you: which button triggers which moment, how quickly the light comes up, how warm it stays.
Every luminaire individually calibrated, every scene accepted together, every control point labelled. Only then do we hand the house over.
Basalte controls throughout the house, multiroom with bespoke audio solutions, highly complex lighting design plus pool and garden irrigation control — interior by Studio ASH.
Cinema night in the living room: projector and screen control, lighting scenes from a simulated sunrise to the mood for a film, all of it by voice as well.
800 DALI luminaires, lighting scenes, external venetian blind, pool and climate control — comfort on a scale that stays manageable only with clean planning.
Each planned on its own, at their strongest in combination.
Most projects need all three — we plan them on one system so that they do not get in one another's way.
smartfabrik is a smart home planning practice based in Düsseldorf (Reisholzer Werftstr. 31A). We plan for private clients and companies in Cologne, Düsseldorf and across North Rhine-Westphalia — and, where wanted, nationwide and internationally. A selection of the places we have already planned and delivered in:
No. Everyday use runs through a few clearly assigned buttons on the push-button sensor — lighting, music and scenes sit where you expect them. The app remains an addition for when you are away, not the daily means of control.
Yes. Everything runs on one KNX system — an evening scene can address living rooms, home cinema, wellness area and pool terrace at the same time, with no separate apps and no isolated solutions.
Yes. KNX is freely programmable, and we readjust lighting moods, times and sequences as part of our ongoing support. If your daily rhythm changes, the house changes with it.
Yes. We integrate KNX and DALI cleanly in existing buildings too — coordinated with the architect and the interior designer, so that controls and equipment disappear into the room rather than sit on top of it. Where cables cannot sensibly be routed, we add wireless selectively.
From everyday comfort to home cinema, spa and pool — thought through as a whole, from the outset.
