Turn Smart Connected Room Controller
Turn Smart Connected Room Controller is an innovative smart home interface device that revolutionizes room control through its intuitive rotary mechanism and sophisticated design aesthetic. This groundbreaking device, developed by designers Oz Andrews, Kevin Andrews, and Sam Al-Mukhtar, seamlessly integrates multiple room control functions into a single, elegantly crafted unit featuring a curved glass display centered around a weighted rotating ring. Manufactured using precision CNC machining of 6000 series aluminum alloy and injection-molded ABS, the device measures 71mm in diameter and 41mm in depth, specifically engineered to fit standard Euro electrical back boxes. The controller's interface operates on natural human intuition, allowing users to adjust lighting, temperature, and window blinds through familiar rotary movements, with intensity control determined by rotation speed. Its knurled tactile surface provides precise control, while the integrated touch screen enables swift function switching through simple swipe gestures. The development, which began in February 2013, represents a significant advancement in smart home control technology, moving away from cluttered button interfaces toward a more refined, user-centric approach. The design, which earned a Bronze A' Design Award in the Digital and Electronic Device Design category, showcases exceptional innovation in combining physical and digital interfaces while pushing the boundaries of manufacturing capabilities through its ultra-thin wall construction and custom display integration. This sophisticated control solution demonstrates remarkable technical achievement in condensing complex smart home functionality into a compact, retrofit-compatible form factor.
