Home & Office Automation.

One press. The whole space responds.

Lights, climate, blinds, audio, cinema and security — orchestrated by a single Rako, Fibaro or KNX backbone and controlled from a touch panel, voice or a discreet keypad on the wall.

Master bedroom — automation scenes

Five scenes drive the Master Bedroom: Wake Up, Day Mode, Unwind, Sleep, and All Off. Each one adjusts curtains, cove lighting, downlights and lamps as a single coordinated moment.

  • Wake Up: Curtains open. Soft warm light eases the room awake.
  • Day Mode: Diffused daylight. Sheer curtains soften the sun.
  • Unwind: Cove and lamps warm to a quiet evening glow.
  • Sleep: All off. A faint pathway glow remains, just in case.
  • All Off: Every circuit off. The room rests in the dark.

/ The discipline, in detail

How we approach home & office automation.

We begin with the architectural drawings, not the gadgets. Cable routes are plotted before plaster, panels are placed where the eye will not search for them, and every keypad is engraved with the room's actual scenes — Welcome, Dinner, Film, Goodnight — not generic numbers.

Our programming is done in-house in Guwahati. Every project ships with a documented schedule of every load on every dimmer, every audio zone routing, every shade group and every scene state. Six months later, when you ask us to add a guest-bedroom dimmer, the change takes a morning rather than a forensic investigation.

We commission and hand over with a homeowner's manual written in plain language, not a printout from the controller. AMC, remote diagnostics and on-call response are part of the warranty, not an upsell.

On record

Every home & office automation engagement is documented end-to-end — design, programming, commissioning, calibration — and handed over with the files our successors would need if we were never to return.

/ Where we deploy this

Active across 3 sectors.

Home & Office Automation is rarely a standalone brief — it sits inside a wider sector practice with its own codes, expectations and operating rhythm.

/ Frequently asked

Home & Office Automation — what buyers ask first.

What is the cost of full home automation in India?

Full home automation in India costs ₹6–10 lakh for a two-bedroom apartment and ₹35 lakh upward for a full-villa Rako fit-out, itemised against the architectural plans. A two-bedroom apartment with lighting, shade and audio control on a Fibaro or Rako backbone typically begins around ₹6–10 lakh. A standalone villa with full Rako — including cinema, multi-room audio, climate and security — usually runs ₹35 lakh upward depending on light fixture count and audio zones. Every quote is itemised against the architectural plans before commitment.

How long does a home automation install take?

Home automation install runs 4–6 weeks of pre-wiring during civil work plus 2–3 weeks of commissioning after wall finishes. Pre-wiring during civil work takes 4–6 weeks. Final commissioning, after wall finishes are complete, takes another 2–3 weeks. We coordinate directly with the architect, electrician and interior contractor so the build doesn't stop.

Do automation systems work without internet?

Yes — automation systems work fully offline; internet is only required for remote app access, voice control and software updates. Every scene, keypad and local control function continues to operate offline. Internet is only required for remote app access, voice control and software updates.

Which automation brand should I choose?

Choose Rako for reference-grade cinema-and-audio homes, Fibaro or Rako for contained budgets — we recommend by project scale, never by sales target. Rako suits homes where the cinema and audio path is reference-grade and the system will be programmed to a designer aesthetic. Rako is unmatched for lighting and shade alone. Rako and Fibaro deliver excellent results at a more contained budget. We will not recommend a system the architecture does not need.

Can the same automation system run my office and my home?

Architecturally yes, but operationally we recommend keeping home and office automation as separate logical deployments — bridging them creates an attack surface that does not earn its complexity. Rako, Fibaro and KNX all scale across residential and small-commercial — but we usually recommend keeping them as separate logical deployments. The scenes, schedules and security policies for a home and an office have very little overlap, and bridging them creates an attack surface that does not earn its complexity. We can however share spare-parts pools and AMC contracts across both.

What happens if the controller fails?

A failed controller is replaced from spare-pool and restored from offline configuration baseline within hours, with battery-backed circuits holding local scene memory through the swap. Every controller we deploy has a documented offline configuration baseline stored on our infrastructure. A failed controller is replaced from spare-pool, the baseline is restored, and the system is back to last-known-good within hours rather than days. Battery-backed circuits hold local scene memory through power loss; some platforms (Rako) keep operating on local keypads even with the central controller offline.
