The lifecycle of a building’s basic infrastructure differs considerably from the innovation cycle of the household appliances and entertainment electronics that are acquired by the occupant. Thanks to the updatability of built-in appliances, the infrastructure always stays up-to-date, is compatible with the latest appliances and the most up-to-date software and offers new applications with every release.

A digital infrastructure means that residences can be equipped with different target groups in mind. As a result, marketing, managing and facility management processes can be organised more efficiently, which opens up new potentials for additional profits from residential services. Thanks to a digital infrastructure, the Internet of Things is no empty phrase, but realised through the digital twin of residence and appliances.

The digital bathroom: The personal wellness oasis

The digital bathroom adjusts to the individual preferences of every single occupant. From the personally preferred light-mood in the morning through to the greeting and the playing of the favourite playlist via the loudspeaker system in the evening – virtually everything is possible. In combination with electronic, height-adjustable bathroom furniture, it even adapts to family members of all ages and body sizes. Built-in monitors, taking the form of bathroom furniture, can be turned by means of lighting, water and sound into a component of moods and scenes and thus provide a completely new bathroom experience.
