The owners of this New Cairo villa wanted more than a few smart gadgets — they wanted a home that worked as one: lights, air conditioning, security, the gate and music all responding together, reliably, for years. That calls for a proper wired platform, and Sedra built it on KNX — the global standard for serious home automation.
The brief
A full smart-home transformation of a family villa: intuitive control of every major system, strong security and intercom, whole-home audio, and the stability that only a wired KNX backbone delivers — all manageable from one app by the whole family.
What Sedra delivered
- KNX automation — unified control of lighting (on/off, dimming, scenes) and climate across the villa, on a stable wired backbone.
- Security & CCTV — surveillance covering the gate, garden and entrances, viewable from the family's phones.
- Smart video intercom — see, speak to and admit visitors at the gate from anywhere.
- Multi-room sound — audio in the right rooms, controlled from the same app.
- Data network — a structured-cabling backbone so everything runs fast and reliably.

The result
A villa that feels effortless to live in: "Good morning" opens the day, "Goodbye" secures the house as the family leaves, the gate is answered from a phone, and every light and degree is exactly where it should be. Built on KNX, it's a system designed to stay reliable and to grow with the family for years — the signature of a Sedra smart home.
A real smart home isn't about showing off technology — it's about never having to think about your home again.
