Part 1 – Staying in the Loxone Smart Show Home Read all 3 parts of our Visiting Loxone Series… In the meantime checkout some more photos in the gallery below. In the final instalment we take a visit to an Austrian Self-Build that’s having a Loxone system installed, plus look at Baudisch, one of Loxone’s manufacturing plants in Germany. Our pleads for access were met with grins but nothing else. This is where the really confidential R&D stuff happens as they work on the next generation of Loxone products in total secrecy. Two minutes away from HQ in the village of Kollerschlag itself is the Loxone Future Lab. There’s one more Loxone building in the vicinity. Such rapid growth has, at times, been challenging but overall it is the best problem to have. In the seven years that we have been in the UK, we have seen continued growth and we are facing a similar situation as we face with our Basecamp in Austria after only being in our UK offices for five years, we are looking to triple the size of our office within the next twelve months to accommodate ever-increasing demand for training and the growing size of our UK team. We asked Philipp Schuster, Managing Director at Loxone UK for an update on the growth of the company in the United Kingdom and he told us… Loxone’s expansion, from a start just a decade ago, continues apace. Our guide for the day, Loxone’s CMO Florian Woess, told us they had outgrown this building and plans are at an advanced stage to extend their operation in Kollerschlag.Ĭonstruction will start next year and this major extension to the existing building will see it grow to cater for up to 400 people. Even the large filing system uses this RFID tech to allow access to authorised staff. More NFC is used here, this time on a long bank of cube shaped staff lockers. Some high backed soft seats were turned to look out across the stunning Austrian countryside and apparently this is where you go when looking for inspiration or to overcome that software challenge you’re working through. We visited on a Saturday and while it was empty you could imagine the productivity from this enormous office. The huge open plan top deck of the Base Camp is where all the action happens with the majority of staff being based up here. This floor to ceiling rack of Loxone hardware towers above your head and it continues on through to the top floor, which was where we were headed next. The work hard, play hard ethic here, along with the foosball table and basketball hoop, all make the atmosphere seem more silicon valley than Austrian village. There’s an NFC system for employee snacks and drinks too with wall mounted iPads showing who’s had what. The rest of this level is taken up with a cool cafe where everyone enjoys chef prepared lunches each day. You can also see the range of Loxone smart home products as well as check out their worldwide locations (including their new offices in China). Here the reception area sits in front of the training room where partners from Germany and Austria receive their certification. The cool staircase to the next level of base camp was no different as we climbed to the ground floor level of the building. In order to ensure external access to the Loxone App, the corresponding settings must also be made by a Loxone Partner.We noticed over the weekend that nearly everything we used from pens to cooking utensils were all in Loxone’s corporate green. We recommend having a Loxone Partner install and configure the Miniserver as well as set up the Loxone App. The Loxone App is used in combination with a Loxone Miniserver.
