In contemporary architecture, the line between technology and design is fading. Today’s homeowners expect security and convenience, but they also demand elegance — technology that feels curated, not cluttered.

The Shift: From Gadgets to Lifestyle Integration

For years, access control meant clunky keypads and intercom boxes. Smart homes often relied on a patchwork of apps and devices. Now, leading-edge solutions integrate seamlessly:

• Facial recognition terminals that provide instant, secure entry.

• Smart intercoms with HD video and audio clarity.

• Luxury wall panels that combine automation, intercom, and sensors into a single, design-conscious feature.

This is technology that enhances both security and living experience — a critical factor for architects, developers, and discerning homeowners.

Design Meets Technology

Akubela HyPanel Lux

An Architectural Element

Unlike traditional touch panels, the HyPanel Lux feels like a piece of art. With glass buttons, a copper rotary knob, and RGB light-ring, it becomes part of the interior rather than an afterthought.

Its ability to integrate intercom, ZigBee gateway, and automation hub makes it the ideal central command for architect-designed homes.

Akubela HyPanel Ultra

The Statement Hub

The Ultra offers a 10-inch 2K display — a feature wall in itself. Designed for larger residences, it acts as the visual centrepiece of the home automation ecosystem.

It blends form with function, delivering intuitive interaction for lighting, climate, security, and entertainment.


Akubela HyPanel Plus

All-in-One Masterpiece

More than just a smart home control panel, The akubela HyPanel Plus combines an Intercom, a Home Automation Controller, a ZigBee Gateway, a Home Security Control System, a temperature and Humidity Sensor, and a Wall Switch, via a 4-inch touch screen and two touch buttons.

Seamless Entry

For exterior access, the A05C facial recognition terminal provides rapid entry without compromising aesthetics.

Slim, modern, and tamper-proof, it ensures only residents and approved guests gain access — no keys required.

Akuvox R20BX5

Multi-Unit Flexibility

In apartments or gated communities, the R20BX5 doorphone combines high-definition video with multiple access options.

It provides clarity and control without dominating the building façade.
