Private Residence
Camden, London, UK
This project was the second time Wave Controls had worked on this family home.
Originally when the client moved in Lutron was installed. Due to incompatibility issues with LED fittings, Lutron was replaced with KNX. At the time, as it was not possible to alter the existing cabling, so KNX RF products were used to enable the required functionality.
When the time came to refurb the property, the brief was to create a minimalist, Scandinavian-style home, with clean lines and bright open spaces.
As the client was already familiar with Gira and enjoyed the benefits of KNX the renovation process provided the perfect opportunity to run KNX cable and upgrade the KNX RF solution to a hard-wired KNX installation, including the use of the new Gira Pushbutton Sensor 4 keypad.
The finished system needed to be intuitive, complement the interior design and use concealed technology wherever possible with a minimal amount of control locations
For the heating control, floor temperature probes were installed to protect the polished cement floor.
A Samsung Frame TV was included as a discreet, cost-effective way to conceal the TV and Sonance Invisible series speakers were installed above the TV and Dining table for premium audio throughout the expansive open-plan kitchen/living space.

“We have a great working relationship with the client as we’ve been working with them since they bought the property in 2014. This made our design process much quicker and when issues arose we were able to resolve quickly through direct communication.
The main issues everyone faced onsite were manufacturing and delivery delays. Throughout this the Ivory Egg team was as helpful as ever, keeping us up to date with lead times, and were always willing to pick up the phone. “
– Andrew, Managing Director
