Creating a comfortable and inviting pub garden environment requires careful control of lighting and heating to extend usability throughout the year. The challenge was to provide an intuitive system that adapts automatically to weather and occupancy while remaining energy-efficient and simple to operate.

We chose Loxone for its reliability, simplicity, and timeless integration - ensuring the system remains future-proof while providing effortless control.
