Smart home systems for Islington townhouses and warehouse conversions
Georgian and early Victorian townhouses around the squares are protected and often listed, so the design lives on minimal intervention: keep circuits, keep plaster, route through cupboards and voids, and replace a crowded switch bank with a single discreet plate.
Warehouse conversions are the opposite problem — exposed brick, concrete slabs and open ceilings mean there is nowhere to hide a cable. Here we plan routes with the joinery, use surface containment where it can be made to look deliberate, and put equipment in a purpose-built ventilated cupboard.
New apartments usually need extending rather than building: proper networking, lighting scenes, blinds and music added to whatever the developer supplied, with everything ending up behind one interface.

Smart home answers for Islington
Can anything be done in a listed Georgian house?
Plenty. Most of what we install is a controller in a cupboard and a neater switch plate. We flag anything that would need consent before it is priced.
Where does the equipment go in a warehouse flat?
Normally into new or existing joinery with ventilation designed in. We would rather build a proper cupboard than stack boxes on a shelf.
Are big industrial windows a problem for blinds?
They need the right motor and fabric for the span, which is a specification question we resolve before ordering.
