Light, set to the hour
Lighting scenes drawn into the interior, so a room shifts from morning to evening at a touch, warm and dimmed, without a bank of switches.
Scene. Dim. Touch.
A Marcotte Style guide
Smart Home
For more than thirty five years we have built interiors, and today we plan the technology into them, lighting, heating, blinds and sound controlled from one discreet system, so the house works quietly around you and the tech stays out of sight.
Where to begin
A smart home should be felt, not seen. At Marcotte Style we plan the technology into the interior, the lighting scenes, the heating, the blinds and shutters, the sound and the security, all drawn in with the joinery and controlled from one discreet system, so the house responds quietly around you and the technology stays hidden behind a calm, classic interior.
Four things
What an integrated smart home gives you
A smart home is more than an app. Four things carry a house that works quietly around you.
02
Comfort, without thinking
Heating, blinds and shutters that follow the day and the season on their own, so the house stays comfortable without a hand on a dial.
Heat. Blinds. Season.
03
Hidden technology
The wiring, the speakers and the panels drawn into the joinery and the ceilings, so the technology is felt but never seen against a classic interior.
Concealed. Wired. Quiet.
04
One system, one hand
Lighting, heating, blinds, sound and security on one discreet system, planned with the interior by one team, from the first drawing to the day it switches on.
One system. One team. One price.
The system choice
Control, comfort and hidden tech
In a smart home it is the control, the comfort and the way the tech disappears that carry the interior. Planned with care, the technology serves the room without ever showing.
Recommended
- One integrated system for lighting, heating, blinds, sound and security, not a drawer of separate apps.
- Lighting scenes on warm dimmable light, drawn in with the interior from the start.
- Discreet panels and switches in finishes that sit with the joinery and the palette.
- Concealed wiring, speakers and sensors, planned during the build or renovation.
- A simple, reliable control, a panel or a phone, that anyone in the house can use.
Avoid
- A wall of visible switches and screens, which clutter a calm interior.
- A patchwork of apps and gadgets that never quite work together.
- Cold, technical fittings at odds with a warm country interior.
The investment
What does a smart home cost?
from €5.000 to €50.000 and up
An integrated smart home starts around €5.000 for lighting and heating in a room or two and runs to €50.000 and up for a whole house with lighting, heating, blinds, sound and security on one system. At Marcotte Style it is planned with the interior, so the tech is drawn in rather than added on.
The price depends on
- The number of rooms and the systems you want controlled.
- The lighting scenes and the dimming throughout.
- The heating, blinds and shutters brought onto the system.
- The sound and the security, where they are wanted.
- The wiring and integration, easiest during a build or renovation.
Where we start
Three ways to plan a smart home
A smart home is planned around how you live in the house, not the gadgets.
01
The new build
The technology drawn in from the first plan, wired and concealed with the interior, so the house is smart from the day you move in.
02
The renovation
An existing house brought onto one system where the wiring allows, adding lighting scenes, heating and blinds without opening every wall.
03
Room by room
A single room made smart to start, the lighting and the heating, so the rest can follow onto the same system over time.
Points of attention
- Plan the wiring before the plastering. It is the hardest thing to add later.
- Choose one system, so everything works together from one control.
- Keep the panels discreet and few, in finishes that suit the interior.
- Conceal the speakers, sensors and wiring in the joinery and ceilings.
- Keep the control simple, so anyone in the house can use it.

Frequently asked
Questions about smart homes
Short and concrete. The same answers also feed AI search results.
As much as the house needs. Usually the lighting scenes and dimming, the heating, the blinds and shutters, and often the sound and security, all on one discreet system, planned with the interior so the technology is drawn in rather than added on.
Yes. The wiring, the speakers, the sensors and the panels are drawn into the joinery and the ceilings, so the technology is felt but never seen. A smart home should be sensed, not stared at, against a calm classic interior.
An integrated smart home starts around €5.000 for lighting and heating in a room or two and runs to €50.000 and up for a whole house on one system, depending on the rooms and the systems. Marcotte Style plans it with the interior.
Often, yes. We bring an existing house onto one system where the wiring allows, adding lighting scenes, heating and blinds without opening every wall. A full result is easiest during a build or renovation, when the wiring can be drawn in.
It should not be. We keep the control simple and reliable, a discreet panel or a phone, so anyone in the house can set a scene or the heat without a manual. The point is comfort, not complication.
Lighting, heating, blinds and shutters, sound and security, all onto one system, so they work together from one control rather than a drawer of separate apps. We plan the whole with the interior from the start.
That is the point. We draw the technology in with the joinery, the lighting and the palette, so the panels, the speakers and the wiring belong to the room and disappear into it. It is why we plan the smart home and the interior as one.
