Nowadays, smart home, Internet of Things and contactless technology
has become an indispensable part of the interior design industry
automatic lighting, smart HVAC units,
smart voice equipment, smart security
has also been chosen by more and more mid-to-high-end families
In this field, devices and systems are constantly introducing new
so it is very necessary for designers to understand how to design home intelligent
How to design smart homes?
1. What is smart home ?
2. The current situation of owners’ demand for smart home
3. The core design points of smart home

What is smart home?
Smart home is an ecosystem that uses residential as the platform
to connect various devices in the home together through Internet of Things technology
to achieve intelligence.
It has functions such as intelligent lighting control, intelligent electrical control, security monitoring system ,
intelligent background music, intelligent video sharing,
visual intercom system and home theater system.
Smart home uses integrated wiring technology, network communication technology,
security prevention technology, automatic control technology, audio and video technology
to integrate facilities related to home life,
build an efficient management system for residential facilities and family schedule affairs,
improves home safety, convenience, comfort, and artistry,
and realizes an environmentally friendly and energy-saving living environment

Current status of owners’ demand for smart home
With the development of the smart home industry and the diffusion of products
How to differentiate The integration of home devices into smart home systems is a very complex problem.
Many owners who intend to use smart homes most reflect
. The reason why they are hesitant to buy and use smart homes is that smart homes are too dispersed.
. Because different companies' products have different communication protocols
. This makes their combination of
Similarly, many people are worried about the reliability of smart homes
and human-machine interface operability and high cost barriers
. has the operability and high cost barriers
whilst others question whether this technology can comprehensively improve their quality of life.
Although solving these problems is largely the top priority in the industry,
But nowadays, owners can eliminate these problems by selecting and combining
that best suits their needs and enjoy the more comfortable life provided by smart home
The following guidelines are conclusions drawn from market research
Smart lighting, temperature control facilities and safety equipment
is the most popular home decoration equipment
Currently, many owners have different considerations. 0 to ensure that they can accurately meet the needs of owners

design points for smart home
1, Smart lighting Smart lighting Design points
Smart lighting is the most popular smart home device
has the advantages of convenience, beauty, safety and energy saving.
can use mobile phones to control lighting effects, which has extremely strong convenience
, but except for the light switch and the integration of light with alarms or other security systems
The benefits and advantages of
are not fully highlighted
There are three types of intelligent lighting systems on the market:
centralized, local and hybrid html l1
1) Centralized intelligent lighting
uses the control panel to replace multiple dimmer and switch
and the lighting circuit is connected to the central panel through communication cable .
Due to specific wiring requirements, this option is suitable for new projects and remodeling
Through pre-planned wiring and control panels,
Centralized intelligent lighting system can create a unified aesthetic for buildings
Use a control panel to control lighting with multiple buttons
Therefore, the position of the control panel is very flexible and centralized lighting systems usually have more design options.
However, the biggest disadvantage is that it must be considered in the early stages of interior design work
2) Local intelligent lighting
Local lighting system still uses traditional switches and dimmers
only However, these switches and dimmers are all gathered in the same system
, and if you want to control, you can also use the control panel to operate
. This system uses wireless radio frequency technology instead of wired communication
. Power supply also uses ready-made wires
. Therefore, it is suitable for small renovations and new houses
. If owners have new ideas and needs after decoration,
. The system can also quickly and easily replace
or add new switches or dimmers
and centralized lighting systems
local intelligent lighting has a greater demand for wall space
If you use wireless communication , the area where the control device is placed will be severely restricted
Whether it is centralized or local
html l0 should take into account these aspects of the aesthetics ofspace, layout, and apartment type
3) Hybrid intelligent lighting
Hybrid intelligent lighting system
Completely combine centralized and local
Select the appropriate system in different locations and connect them all to the central control panel
Its advantage is that it is very flexible
If there is a new demand after construction, you can add wireless devices
, but the biggest disadvantage is that all devices using wireless radio frequency
have the same restrictions as local systems
2. Intelligent automatic curtains Design points
Space design Intelligent home in also needs to consider the factors that introduce natural light sources into space
Smart curtains can solve many problems in this regard
is not only convenient to use, but also meets aesthetic appreciation
In normal home decoration design, 45% to 75% of curtains are not used frequently
Some reasons may even be that windows are difficult to get close to
Smart curtains can resolve such pain points, press the button to open and close the curtains
curtains If you are connected to the smart system of the home
has a strong personalization, you can adjust
according to the owner's habits, for example, automatically open and close
Smart curtains can be designed according to each style
Smart curtains are electric curtains with certain self-reaction, adjustment and control functions.
It can automatically adjust according to the conditions of the indoor and outdoor environment
has three prominent features: intelligent light control, intelligent rain control, and intelligent risk control
Intelligent curtain system also retains manual control function, and can be manually operated without power
3, Intelligent temperature control facilities Design points Household temperature control or HVAC
is another convenient and energy-saving smart home system.
Intelligent temperature control system can independently learn the owner's temperature preferences
and automatically adjust the temperature according to the owner's location indoor or outdoor
Generally, this facility is suitable for owners who are energy-saving and environmentally friendly or have special requirements for temperature
Intelligent temperature control system can also be triggered faster and more conveniently through voice.
4. Intelligent voice system design points
Intelligent voice is an effective method to integrate and manage different smart home systems
It can solve the problems of dispersed communication protocols between different systems and slow user interface
Owners can automatically log in to their smart home account through voice
Just move their mouths, they can control the smart system
to adjust the light, turn on and close curtains, change the temperature, etc.
Even if you have an intelligent system developed by different manufacturers at home,
can be managed using the same voice system
Users can also set key phrases to manage different systems at the same time.
For example, say simple "I'm going out!"
Smart voice device can turn off the light,
switches the temperature control device to a mode where no one is at home and automatically closes the door
Of course, even if you are not connected to other devices,
intelligent voice system has its value:
can reply to owners according to simple voice prompts
Time, weather and playing music or broadcasting news and so on
Because voice commands are easy to operate, they are very streaming around the world
In the high-end decoration market such as multi-story villas and boutique residential buildings, there is still a lack of clear distinction between design and construction. Some high-end designers are also inevitably trapped in the dilemma
Most interior designers still stay in the space design of home
Visual aesthetic design and corresponding building materials selection
and pretend to turn a blind eye to the vigorous trend of smart reshaping home scenes.
