The Hale Nui Project is a private residence boasting some of the most advanced building technology to seamlessly control the 5 Bedroom 6 Bathroom home.

The KNX and Basalte system controls not only the lighting, blinds, air-conditioning, heating, toilet flushes and audio, but directly integrates into the incoming energy supply to ensure the home never draws too much load from the grid. To combat this, the home is fitted with a 12kW PV array attached to a complete off grid battery backup system. This is monitored by KNX Energy meters sending out notifications to the owner and system integrator prior to switching off nonessential loads, known as load shedding.

The project was not without its challenges, this was a difficult renovation completed with little to know architectural plans, an everchanging scope of work and further to this being completed from 2020- Mid 2021 meant COVID was at its peak.
