Casa E represents a comprehensive modernization of a luxury villa originally designed by the renowned architectural firm Blackstad and landscaped by Terra Vita. After a decade of use, the property required urgent system upgrades and repairs. Concept Installations took over the existing smart home infrastructure, elevating it to current standards while respecting the villa’s architectural legacy.

Our primary objectives included:
- Control4 Automation Upgrade: Upgrading the villa’s Control4 system from OS2 to OS3 to restore full mobile and intercom functionality.
