Initial situation
Development of a modular flat cable system for structured energy and data distribution in buildings. In addition to energy distribution, the system also enables the combined integration of KNX, SMI and DALI. The aim was to create a formally and functionally stringent system architecture with clear handling logic.

Challenge
Strict technical and normative specifications, economically highly sensitive installation environment, different application scenarios within a system, need for fast, low-error assembly, making the system character visible despite modular diversity.

Solution
Development of a consistent design language across all system components, characteristic curvature as a recognisable system feature, connections consistently positioned at the curved end – clear orientation logic, clear visual separation of functional elements, system identity despite different component sizes, the shape becomes a navigation code in the installation process.

Result
A modular installation system with a clearly legible system architecture.
The clear orientation reduces assembly time and the risk of errors.
Design consistency supports planning and cost-effectiveness.
Winner of the German Design Award and iF Design Award, among others.
