Your home follows your day.

It wakes you with light, the way a sunrise does. It drifts with the daylight, goes amber when you wind down, and dark when you sleep. When the internet drops, none of it stops.

This is the actual curve the house runs, drawn from the same math. Drag wake or sleep and watch the day move.

The morning starts thirty minutes before you do.

The bedroom stirs at one percent, so faint you would not call it light. It stays barely there for most of that half hour. Then it lifts a little, still holding you, and right on the minute you chose it arrives at full daylight.

The room holds bright and cool for the next hour and a half. After that, the day begins to drift.

Every room follows the same arc, at its own scale.

The loft runs bright at noon. The bedroom never does. By evening every room is amber, and at your sleep time the house goes dark. Nudge a room brighter and it rides the curve for a while, then settles back into the day.

Save any mood as a scene and recall it from the panel, the app, or Blue.

The wall panel showing the day's light curve for four rooms, with wake and sleep marked
The wall panel in the house it was built in. Fifteen lights, four rooms, one curve each, captured at 1:57 AM.

Sound follows too.

The house plays one thing at a time, on every speaker at once, in sync. Your phone can be the source, or a playlist the hub keeps. Any AirPlay 2 speaker works as it is.

A panel that stays dark at 3 AM.

The wall panel shows the day's arc, the rooms, the scenes and the sound. There is no white and no blue anywhere on it. A screen that lights a room at 3 AM works against the thing it is there for, so its colors are warm and dim on purpose. Touch it and it wakes. Leave it and it rests.

It works with Blue.

Connect your home in Blue's Apps and Blue sees it every time you talk: your wake and sleep times, your rooms, your scenes. Say you are sleeping in tomorrow and Blue moves the wake time. Ask for the reading scene and it is on. Ask for the office a little warmer and it is.

Blue only touches the house when you ask, and it tells you what it saved.

Meet Blue

What is in the box.

Every piece of this runs in the house it was built in. The hub, the controllers, the boards, the panel on the wall.

The hub with a screen

Runs the whole day from its own disk and drives the lights over your Wi-Fi. The touchscreen is the wall panel. Mount it where you pass by.

The small hub

No screen, one small board. Plug it in, join your Wi-Fi from your phone, and it runs the same day on the lights you already own.

Light controllers

Our own boards drive 24 V LED strips: warm and cool pairs, single-color runs, up to sixteen channels on one node, wired in behind the furniture.

Works today with Elgato Key Lights and Light Strips, Pixelblaze for patterns, any AirPlay 2 speaker, and Ecobee thermostats over HomeKit.

When the internet drops, the sunrise still happens.

The cloud compiles your day into a curve. The hub keeps a copy on its own disk and runs it on its own. A dead connection costs you the app until it is back, and nothing else.

Made to order, by hand.

Each one is built one at a time, in the order asked for, by the person who built the first one for her own house. Tell her about your place. She will write back with questions, then a quote.
