Yesterday, we were honoured to join Jeff Hayward, The Integrated Home Podcast & Wildwood Plus at the Smart Building Show, where Nicolai Landschultz took the stage for an engaging discussion on the importance of smart tech in residential developments. Key takeaways from that session: ✨ The rising expectation of buyers to have some form of Smart Control within a home, shifting from a luxury to a necessity. ✨ With this rise in expectation, the importance of providing the right infrastructure for Smart Control, whether included as part of the project or offered as an optional add-on for the buyer to decide at a later stage. ✨ The use of control systems, such as Control4, to enhance the end-user experience with an intuitive interface that controls all elements in one place. ✨ The importance of early planning, ideally involving an integrator at the planning stages, pre-tender, to ensure the correct specification is included. ✨ The requirement for long-term support for systems and why choosing an integrator with the capabilities to provide regular maintenance is a must.
