Unlocking new scenes

Unlocking new scenes

In crafting the scene control section, my goal was to create a space where personalization meets efficiency. The active scene at the top ensures users can immediately recognize their current setting and empowers users to effortlessly adjust lighting, climate, and other preferences with just a few taps. By streamlining these controls, I aimed to enhance the overall experience, allowing users to seamlessly adapt their home environment to match their mood or needs at any moment.

Delivering home security

Delivering home security

When designing the security settings screen, I wanted the user to feel empowered by giving them control over their unique security preferences. I imagined how someone might want to protect only specific areas at times - a quiet evening might call for just securing the exterior, while a busy day could mean locking down particular rooms. So, I crafted a modular layout that lets users build their own custom configurations, adding flexibility and a personal touch that adapts to their daily rhythms and needs.
