Hi everyone, I’m in the process of building a new house and I’m looking to add some smart home automation features. I want to future-proof the home and make life more convenient, but I’m not sure where to start or what’s worth the investment. I’d love some recommendations on: 1) Must-have smart home devices (e.g., lighting, security systems). 2) Best ecosystems (e.g., Google Home, Apple HomeKit, Alexa). 3) Home automation for energy efficiency – what are the most effective setups? 4) Automated window blinds, or locks – are these worth adding? 5) Any advice on wiring or setup during the construction phase to make things smoother in the future?
