Light that follows
the hour, not the switch.
A 640 m² hillside villa where the brief was quiet: two floors, seven lighting scenes, a single intercom tile by the front door, and 'nothing that beeps.' Skyline delivered a full KNX/DALI install with inline dimmers behind every existing backbox and an IP intercom bridged to the owner's phone — no new cloud accounts, no replaced faceplates.
