Beauty is about more than aesthetics alone. One of the most important principles of good interior design is that form and function should be considered in equal measure. A beautifully designed smart system can bring comfort, convenience and environmental consciousness into your life. This CPD seminar walks the architect through real life examples of intelligent technology meeting breathtaking design. It also discusses KNX, an open protocol system, and the myths that surround it.
