Villa Steurer, a smart oasis of elegance

On Lake Garda, an exclusive villa blends refined design with Gira smart technology. Designed by Kurt Steurer, the residence boasts interiors featuring premium materials and an advanced KNX home automation system that manages lighting, climate, and security, providing a personalized and state-of-the-art living experience.

Nestled in a natural setting of rare beauty, where the majestic Alps meet the gentle curves of the hills around Lake Garda, Villa Steurer sits like an elegant retreat, its surfaces catching the ever-changing colors of the lake's light. In this inspiring panorama, intelligent design blends seamlessly with cutting-edge technology, a harmonious marriage of the local spirit and modern innovation.

This is an immersive sensory experience where the exceptional interior design, expertly crafted by Studio Steurer, speaks in perfect harmony with Gira's smart home solutions. It's a bold project that redefines modern living, offering an international clientele a sublime fusion of sophisticated aesthetics and the tangible benefits of advanced home automation.

The masterful touch of Kurt Steurer, the discerning client and an experienced master of interior design, is evident from the moment you step inside. The raw texture of exposed concrete and the primal feel of natural stone, alongside wall finishes that evoke sculptural art, create an elegant contrast with the sleek sheen of stainless steel, the airy transparency of glass, and the dignified austerity of marble. This skillful interplay of opposites resolves into an unexpected harmony, enhanced by the warm texture of coordinated fabrics and the refined accents of wood and bronze. The color palette, featuring natural and neutral tones like enveloping beiges, delicate creams, and earthy browns, contributes to an atmosphere of sophisticated and understated elegance.

Villa Steurer's intelligence goes beyond mere aesthetics, extending with consistent design to the very heart of its livability: the Gira smart home system. This luxury residence transforms into a living, interconnected entity, both inside and out.

The subtle shifts of light, orchestrated by the silent movement of blinds, the comforting warmth of the heating, and the discreet security of the video intercom are all managed by the KNX system. The Gira HomeServer gathers and harmonizes all the data from the KNX devices, while the Gira G1 acts as an intuitive control hub, a central point from which lighting and soundscapes can be personalized with a simple touch. One gesture is all it takes to transform the ambiance, catering to every desire. In each room, the latest generation Gira touch sensors, with their refined brown aluminum finish, become elegant details against the light surfaces of concrete and stone.

Gira's signature attention to detail extends with the same timeless elegance to the outdoor spaces, through minimalist switches, precisely engineered buttons, weatherproof sockets, and the Gira System 106 video intercom, a perfect blend of design and functionality. Villa Steurer is, therefore, a tangible promise – a promise of a future of living where aesthetics and technology, comfort and intelligence, converge into a unique and unforgettable experience.
