What is Nanoleaf?

Nanoleaf is a company that builds customisable LED smart lights and panels that can be tuned and shaped to every user’s liking. You can combine them with a rhythm-module that can sync your lighting with music and games. This results in a completely personalised ambiental lighting experience that fits into every smart home.

The light panels are easy to install and set up by yourself. No screws needed as the panels snap together with special linkers and are mounted on the wall with stickers.

The standard kit comes with nine panels, but you can freely extend it with multiple panels to add a splash of light and color to any wall in your home. Scroll through the Nanoleaf Subreddit that offers great tips and panel designs to try.

Then integrate the panels into your KNX or Loxone smart home with the help of a smart assistant and upgrade your smart home look and feel. Bring a sense of creativity and fun to your home with this simple KNX or Loxone Nanoleaf integration.

KNX & Loxone compatible Nanoleaf products:

  • Nanoleaf Light Panels - Rhythm Edition
  • Nanoleaf Aurora
  • Nanoleaf Shapes - Hexagons

Nanoleaf Aurora Rhythm Review:

The Nanoleaf panels provide a different type of experience to other smart lights in your home. At its most basic, it’s a wall of lighting where you choose the colour, helping change the mood of a room. Once you turn on one of the dynamic modes, the Nanoleaf becomes more like art, gently shifting and changing patterns.

If you’d like to include Nanoleaf line of light panels to your home automation, you first need to add the Nanoleaf to your Loxone, Gira or any other KNX IP Interface with the help of a smart assistant.
