Smart homes are letting us control our residential spaces in new and exciting ways. Interior spaces are being intelligently designed to deliver comfort in every condition with innovation that allows convenient control of climate, lighting, music and security all through your smartphone’s Wi-Fi.

Live camera feeds through services like Ring let us check our homes with live video surveillance from anywhere in the world, enabling us to see who is at the door or on our property when we’re not at home. It’s enabling residential spaces to achieve new levels of privacy and security, as well as unlocking dynamic new functions which can streamline your lifestyle.

Moor by Marcopolo Property is one of the most hi-tech developments to grace the district, says property developer Obaid Naqebullah.

“The integration of technology connects every element of your life for effortless living, offering the luxury of time, comfort and innovation at your fingertips,” he says.

Integrated automated technology can be woven into the fabric of an apartment’s design, offering a lifestyle of enhanced freedom and ease. Using your phone or tablet, you can tap into a smart home’s automation system and enjoy effortless control of everything from bringing your motorized blinds down at dusk or heating your home up from your bed on those chilly winter mornings.

Voice activation through Amazon Alexa or Google Nest offers an additional layer of functionality at home, allowing students to get help with homework, the family chef to access a recipe, your speaker to play your music playlist, or simply to find an answer to any question you might have like ‘what is the social media trend ‘very demure, very mindful’.

Integrated speakers can allow in-ceiling speakers to be installed to connect to an amplifier and music streaming services. Living room lights can be turned on and off, dimmed or set to one of four pre-programmed mood settings. 

Smart Appliances are also showing how technology is reshaping our homes. From refrigerators that can create shopping lists to washing machines that can be controlled remotely when you’re in another room, there are now appliances that can fast track your chores.

Obaid Naqebullah says smart homes are gifting us with a new level of luxury that caters for our every desire. As we’ve seen with the progress of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning is also helping our homes to adapt to our preferences. The brightness and colour of a smart light could change according to the time of day, your moor or a special event.

As we seek to live more sustainability, smart thermostats can master our schedule and then match the heating and cooling settings to our patterns. It’s about energy efficiency that’s effortless, with technology helping to lighten the load for comfort, convenience and cost savings.
