    You may try to replace traditional bulbs with smart bulbs or smart switches. Install smart plugs to make existing lamps and fixtures controllable through a mobile app.​
    Try to conceal also smart device wiring where possible to maintain a clean and traditional look, ensuring that technology doesn't visually overwhelm the space

        I've found that blending smart features with the traditional aesthetic of an older home involves selecting smart devices that mimic classic designs or can be discreetly installed. Opting for smart light switches with vintage-style faceplates or hidden smart thermostats can maintain the charm while adding modern functionality. Additionally, exploring wireless smart home systems allows for easier integration without altering the home's original architecture.
