Scenes, switches, schedules and sensors - working as one team, in one app. And because we design around open standards, it plays nicely with the lights and brands already in your home.

One tap sets the whole room. Dinner, movie, reading or bedtime, each scene dims and warms the right lights together, so nobody hunts for six switches.

How it works

How it works

Five steps, one local team, and a fixed quote before any work starts - the whole journey from first chat to a home that looks after itself.

Five steps, one local team, and a fixed quote before any work starts - the whole journey from first chat to a home that looks after itself.

01

Consult

We listen to how you live, what worries you, and the moments you want the home to handle quietly.

02

Design

We map the right mix of scenes, switches and schedules so the system feels helpful from the first day.

03

Install

Our team installs the agreed system with neat work, clear communication and a tidy handover.

04

Configure

We tune scenes, dimming levels and timing so the system responds to your routines instead of interrupting them.

05

Support

We stay close after setup, helping the system grow as your home, family and routines change.

How much does lighting automation cost in Melbourne?

How much does lighting automation cost in Melbourne?

It depends on the size of your home and how far you want to take it - a few smart switches in the living areas costs a lot less than whole-home scenes and schedules. No two homes are the same, so we quote every project individually: fixed, itemised, and yours to sleep on. Here’s how the levels work.

Standard dimmers and switches, or an integrated system?

Each path can make sense; the best choice depends on how much you want your lighting to do with the rest of your home.
