A proposed multi-residence technology package combining Control4 automation, DALI smart lighting, motorised-blind control, professional Wi-Fi 6 networking and compatible air-conditioning integration.
For a premium apartment development, BLUTEK’s documented technology scope focuses on bringing selected comfort, lighting and connectivity systems together through a consistent smart-home platform. The proposal schedules four Control4 CORE 3 controllers, six 10-inch T4 touchscreens and four CoolMaster air-conditioning integrations across the project.
The wider specification includes a managed Araknis networking solution, programmable lighting with Control4 DALI components, configurable keypads, motion sensors and selected door/window sensors. Bond Bridge Pro interfaces are identified for motorised blind control.
These quantities reflect the proposal’s planned system scope, not independently confirmed as-built installation. The document does not establish a completed cinema, multi-room audio, CCTV camera system or video intercom package for this development, so those claims have been removed.
BLUTEK’s proposal is structured around repeatable systems with local control interfaces, coordinated networking and programmable lighting. The specification includes installation, programming and design-related work for core components, network equipment, lighting and blind integration.
This is a technology package for a development rather than an independently verified photographic completion report. The before-and-after photography will help document the transition from construction to the finished residences once those images are supplied.
THE PROJECT VISION
In premium multi-residence developments, connected technology can add a new level of convenience when it is planned into the building from the outset. Lighting, climate and motorised window coverings can be designed around the routines of residents, while centralised control hardware and a professionally specified network support the systems behind the scenes.
The proposal uses Control4 as the principal integration platform and pairs it with dedicated lighting modules, touchscreens, environmental sensors and Araknis connectivity. The scope is intended to support a more consistent smart-living experience across the residences, with the final interfaces and operation dependent on installation and commissioning.
CONTROL4 CORE SYSTEMS
The core technology schedule includes four Control4 CORE 3 controllers, four controller wall-mount brackets and six Control4 T4 10-inch touchscreens with corresponding backboxes. The proposal includes initial Control4 setup and programming, controller installation and touchscreen installation.
With appropriate connected devices and programming, residents can interact with supported lighting, climate and other compatible functions through the local Control4 interface. The exact allocation of hardware to individual apartments is not set out in the attached proposal and is not assumed here.
Four central controllers specified for the development technology package.
Six in-wall control interfaces with backboxes in the scope.
Four initial Control4 setup and programming allocations.
Site visits, scope planning, mounting and installation included as proposed work.
SMART LIGHTING
The lighting design is a substantial part of the specified project. It includes 80 Control4 configurable keypads with faceplates and button-engraving allowances, eight eight-channel switch relays, four eight-channel phase-dimming modules and eight double DALI bus kits.
The schedule also includes four 48V bus power supplies, four Ethernet gateways, Control4 dry-contact modules and programming allowances for keypad layouts, relay and dimmer functions, blind integration and lighting scenes.
These components are intended to support centralised, scene-based lighting. The final number of individual lighting circuits, keypad engravings and commissioned scenes will depend on the approved electrical and programming design.
Consistent wall control across the proposed development.
Control4 DALI bus kits, relays and phase dimming included.
Forty lighting-scene programming entries in the schedule.
Faradite motion sensors and NYCE door/window sensors are specified.
BLINDS & CLIMATE
Motorised-blind integration is addressed through eight Bond Bridge Pro devices and Control4 programming allowances for 28 blinds. Actual control depends on the chosen motor systems, compatibility and final programming; the proposal does not list blind motors or window-covering fabrics as supplied products.
The comfort schedule includes four CoolMaster air-conditioning integrations, intended to link compatible HVAC systems to the Control4 platform. Resident controls and available functions depend on the final installed climate equipment.
NETWORK & WI-FI
Each connected-home system depends on a dependable data network. The networking schedule specifies four Araknis 220 Series single-WAN routers, four Araknis 220 Series 24-port Gigabit switches, eight Araknis 520 Wi-Fi 6 access points and four Araknis 820 Wi-Fi 6 access points.
Twelve access-point brackets, network installation and programming allocations are also documented. Together these support a planned networking architecture for compatible home automation and network-enabled devices, with actual Wi-Fi performance dependent on building structure, cabling and commissioning.
220 Series single-WAN routers specified.
Araknis 220 Series 24-port Gigabit models in the proposal.
Eight 520 Series and four 820 Series access points.
Network installation, access-point mounting and programming allowances.
DEVELOPMENT COORDINATION
The proposal identifies design, planning, installation and programming work across the core control, lighting and network systems. It also notes that 240V electrical installation, electrical rough-in and standard power/data provisions require the project electrician and are outside BLUTEK’s quoted electrical installation scope.
Early coordination matters in apartment developments: controller locations, touchscreen backboxes, DALI wiring, equipment space, access-point coverage and integration with compatible HVAC equipment are easier to manage when decisions are made before the final wall and ceiling finishes.
BEFORE & AFTER
Two stages of the Rhodes development, presented side by side: site preparation and building works alongside completed apartment interiors. These are representative views of each stage, not a claim that the photographs were taken from identical positions.

WHY BLUTEK
BLUTEK’s value is in bringing product selection, system architecture, programming and installation coordination into one project plan. For developers and their delivery teams, this creates a clearer path to specifying smart technology early and integrating controls neatly within finished apartments.
The documented scope demonstrates a coordinated design across Control4 automation, lighting, networking, blinds and climate. The final installed scope and completed spaces will be confirmed as additional site information and finished-project photographs become available.
