A house for the whole family
SantVerd is a house designed for families: come with the children and find plenty to do without leaving home.
A film in the cinema, the pool in summer, the lower garden to play in or a walk in the woods, which start right outside the door. And for days out, the beach is 12 minutes away, the Illa Fantasia water park (open in summer) is 10 minutes away, and Barcelona is a full day out for children, from the science museum to Tibidabo.

The whole house,
from one screen
SantVerd runs on home automation. From a tablet on the dining-room wall you lower the awnings, switch on the lights, set the air conditioning in each bedroom and play music through speakers all over the house.
The house does the rest by itself: the awnings come down according to the sun and the temperature, the air conditioning stops if a door or window is left open, the living-room lights come on when you walk in, the garden lights come on at dusk and go off at a set time so as not to disturb the neighbours, and the pool pump adjusts its hours to the temperature. It is a certified Passive House, built to use as little energy as possible.
How the smart home worksFrom the screen to the house
On the dining-room wall, next to the kitchen, with SantVerd drawn in 3D.
In the living-room view, each window has its own buttons to raise, stop and lower.
The living-room awnings soften the light and keep the garden in view.
A house that uses only what it needs
Ecology matters a great deal to us. SantVerd is a certified Passive House, and the smart home makes sure no energy is wasted.
