Host Your Friends Better: Start Your Motorisation Journey with Somfy

Friendship is not a destination, but a journey. An effective way to quicken this trail is by hosting your friends in comfort at home. And doing so can be as simple as motorising your window coverings!

Friends Laughter

Scenery on Standby

Friends who are over at your place won’t enjoy staring at your four walls for long. This is an especially valid concern if you host mostly in-door events, such as Netflix marathons and fellowships. The longer people are in your home, the more mindful you should be of their visual comfort.

With motorised curtains and blinds, the scenery outside your home is practically on standby. You can remotely adjust those coverings to offer visual variety to your guests anytime, even if your hands are full- Just use voice command, or press some buttons in an app! 

You’ll also be amazed at the kind of instructions your friends will be giving Alexa. Great ice-breaker indeed!

 

Ambience for Every Occasion

Light distribution greatly affects the mood of an enclosed space. Dim lights in orange exude warmth, bright lights in white emanate seriousness, and middling lights in red radiate danger—the possibilities are endless. What if you could control natural light distribution, or include colourful party lights in your home?

You certainly can. By using motorised curtains and blinds, you have power over how external light streams into your home. With a touch of a button, you can raise or lower your window coverings to alter the ambience as the occasion dictates. Many home automation apps sync with lights for the optimum party vibes.

 

Privacy at Your Command

The ability to control how much strangers know about your domestic life is a human right. While you cannot ordain the behaviour of others, you can limit leakage of information about your domestic happenings with physical means.

Through motorised curtains and blinds, you can readily adjust your window coverings the moment you sense the gaze of a voyeur. At the tap of the Somfy Connexoon app from your smartphone, you can seal off your private little universe to dispel that creepy feeling, or that creep.

 

Relief from Glare and Heat

Imagine your friends coming over for lunch, bearing huge smiles and high anticipation. Then, the afternoon sun appears, firing shafts of sunlight into your home through the windows, tainting your Netflix experience. The good mood is promptly ruined by the glare and heat, and you scramble to lower the curtains and blinds.

To avoid this unpleasant situation, the solution is simple: motorise your curtains and blinds. When you automate your window coverings at home, you free yourself from having to manually adjust them. This hands-free convenience empowers you to counteract Mother Nature’s whims easily during busy moments.
