Smart Living: How Smart Home Systems Elevate Multifamily and Urban Renewal Projects

In today’s urban landscape, large-scale residential projects are setting new standards for modern living. High-rise towers with hundreds of apartments, carefully designed public spaces, and advanced infrastructure all come together to redefine what it means to live in the city. But behind every wall and window lies another layer of design: smart systems that allow residents to control their environment with a simple tap – and sometimes without touching anything at all.


Smart Electricity – No Longer Just for Luxury Homes

Smart home technology is no longer reserved for private villas or boutique residences. It has become a standard feature in multifamily housing and urban renewal developments. Each apartment can be equipped with a complete smart system – including personalized switch layouts, intelligent scenarios, and customized settings based on the project’s requirements.

Wireless-based systems allow for clean, simple installation without the need for special infrastructure or complex renovations. From a single app, residents can control lighting, HVAC, shades, blinds, water heaters, and more – creating a flexible, intuitive, and highly personalized living environment.

Planning Smart from the Ground Up

One of the biggest advantages of integrating smart systems into large-scale projects is the ability to be involved from the early planning stages, alongside electrical consultants and architects. This makes it possible to streamline wiring, consolidate control points, and design a minimalist switch layout that enhances the resident experience while reducing costs for developers.

In multifamily housing, the systems are defined according to hundreds of units, maintaining consistency across the project while still allowing flexibility and adjustments for residents when needed.

Smart Home as a Planning Standard

Smart home systems are no longer a technological gimmick – they are a true design tool. They add real value to residents, elevate the perception of the project in the market, and give architects and designers a way to create richer, more engaging spaces.

Whether it’s a large-scale multifamily development or a single urban renewal building, smart electricity is no longer a luxury. It is a natural step toward creating residential environments that are more comfortable, precise, and future-ready.
