eikon
eikon Eikon appeals to our senses with every detail of its design. It appeals to our desires, with over 200 different functions to choose from. It provides a wealth of choice with five premium materials, devices and buttons in three chromatic finishes and 108 colour options. It puts people at the centre of the home, using a simple and intuitive system that integrates video door entry, home automation and burglar alarm. With the refined rigour of the Classic cover plate or the smooth shapes of Round: Eikon, a sign of new living.

three ways of being Eikon speaks of new living styles, transforming the home into a space for expressing our mood and creativity, and the lighting control into a symbol of a precise aesthetic choice. This is why Eikon is available with devices and buttons in three different colours: the purity of anthracite grey; the lightness of white with a soft matt finish; the technological charm of Next silver. Three finishes which can be complemented by the Classic or the Round cover plate, giving you even greater freedom of choice.

total white For an extra touch of lightness, Eikon proposes total white. Devices and buttons in a silky matt finish, treated with a high-resistance protective coating which ensures colour consistency and a pleasant textured surface. Special cover plates with white frame have been developed to match the colour of the buttons, for a totally white effect.

the elegance of anthracite A symbol of elegance that moves with the times, Eikon takes on new shapes, materials and colours. Devices and buttons in anthracite grey, with matching frame. Cover plates are also available in different materials, to turn the lighting control into a symbol of precision and refinement. Ice black Glass; the iridescent effects of anthracite metal; the material appeal of matt anthracite; the absolute black of natural stone.

An aesthetic choice in keeping with advanced systems, with extensive use of home automation solutions.

Simply press to activate the video entry phone or internal video surveillance system. You can browse the home automation menu using just a few push buttons, in much the same way as on a mobile phone.

the intelligent home A By-me home is a more intelligent home in which lights, radiators, air conditioners, roller shutters, burglar alarms and electrical household appliances dialogue with one another. By-me is a system that grows with you, adapting gradually to your continuously developing needs and which, thanks to radio frequency, can be extended without making masonry work. Furthermore, a single command is associated with multiple coordinated actions, known as scenes. For example, by selecting the ‘out’ scene, the burglar alarm is activated, the lights switch off, the roller shutters come down and the temperature is lowered. And even when you are out and about you can stay in contact with your home at all times thanks to the Vimar By-phone software for mobile phones, which enables the entire system to be controlled remotely.
