Home automation advice needed

[335-pilot]

Hi,

I have been given the task of installing an automated light and heating system into a new build timber frame house. It is to have a fair sized plant room as well as swimming pool and cinema.
I have never had to contemplate anything on this scale before so any contacts or suppliers etc would be most helpful

Start by getting a detailed list of requirements for the overal system and getting that agreed with the client. As has been mentioned the biggest problem with these types of jobs is scope creep.
