Casa Martelli is our family home in Abruzzo, Italy. It's an happy place located in the historic centre of a little town. Everthing about our house is always a work in progress so expect a lot of updates to this repo.
Why do we automate?
Automations in our house are there to help us reduce the number of repetitive tasks so we can focus on more important things.
Approach to automations
Our automations should adapt to us, not the opposite, they are there to add value to the interactions we have with our living space.
A great article by Paulus Schoutsen can be found here.
Software
Our automation software of choice is Home Assistant. Our install is "Supervised" by the Home Assistant Supervisor.
