Home and layout

One room. Different places to use.

Cooking, dining and relaxing may share one room. The controls still need to show which light serves which part of it.

Fictional example. Not a customer installation.

Align spatial and technical boundaries

A Home Assistant area and a physical room boundary are not always the same thing. Before modelling, establish how entities are assigned and which locations need to stay distinct. We assess that mapping rather than assume new walls or zones.

Choose detail for its usefulness

The kitchen units and dining table can provide orientation. Small decorative items may add little to the controls and need upkeep when they move. A simplified view can explain the layout more clearly.

A practical example

Illustrative example: Three light groups serve the worktop, table and sofa. Their positions remain distinct even though the room has no dividing walls.

What your setup needs to provide

VioMio adds a 3D view to Home Assistant. Verified feature groups are light controls, supported cover functions, and display of suitable door/window contacts and room temperatures. Dimming, colour temperature and cover functions depend on the device and integration. Temperatures are read-only. Relevant entities need suitable room and floor assignments. We assess your specific scope before preparing a quote. A spatial grouping does not establish automation, person tracking or an access boundary.

Your route to a quote

A plan marking the activity locations and their device names helps later. Mark desired boundaries as notes rather than physical walls. For the first enquiry, we need your email address, smart-home system and approximate building or space size. Plans, photos and device information can follow later. Send only necessary materials and remove private information and credentials. We clarify open questions by email and prepare a quote with scope and costs. Implementation is agreed afterwards.
