Matt & Massimo
Expanding the Horizons of Home and Building Automation

The digitalization of homes and buildings is making life more convenient for consumers worldwide. While today’s building systems are digital, most are underutilized and operating in silos. In Japan, numerous property owners and users are still unaware of the full potential of digital home and building systems and their ability to provide enhanced occupant experiences, operational efficiency, and energy efficiency. This is accelerating the need for property owners and users to partner with system integrators who can deliver integrated and interoperable digital systems.

Enter Matt & Massimo, a system integrator specializing in home and building automation. Through its prowess in deploying information technology within the home and building facilities and collaborations with leading architects, interior designers, and facility engineers, Matt & Massimo achieves superior space design and delivers impeccable customer experiences.

“We provide the best-in-class user experience by supporting consultation, system design, device supply, software programming, installation, and maintenance based on a customer’s needs,” says Keita Mashino, founder and president of Matt & Massimo.

Using open and reliable technology independent of any specific manufacturer, Matt & Massimo provides services to create, deliver, and maintain systems that aid in integrating the control and monitoring of independent equipment implemented across various facilities.

Concurrently, it offers cutting-edge comfort by integrating great design interfaces and IoT technologies into a space while maintaining unmatched aesthetics of the design and atmosphere by implementing sophisticated design products and specially designed automation systems for users.

What differentiates Matt & Massimo’s solution for residential buildings from conventional building solutions is its ability to create a dedicated automation system focusing on design and comfortability working with architects or designers. Its expertise in producing a well-integrated home automation system, which can control and manage building facilities, such as lights, shades, air conditioning, audio systems, and other facilities, with sophisticated design keypads, sensors, mobile devices, smart speakers or schedulers, gives homeowners a next-level customer experience.

Typically, in commercial buildings, automation systems comprising electrical, mechanical, and shading facilities operate in silos, making interconnectivity tricky. In most building control systems, each facility is integrated into a central management system that offers limited freedom for system design and UI selection. Many switches and sensors are also mounted in the same location, which makes the building automation system manufacturer-dependent.

Matt & Massimo revolutionizes this with an integrated building control system that combines facilities at the field level and lowers the strain on the central management system. It provides a high degree of freedom for system engineering and smart equipment investment, simplifying communications across different IT systems and enabling building owners to easily monitor and manage their facilities from anywhere. Its proposed field control system is based on KNX technology, a global protocol for building and home automation that can interwork with BACnet, DALI, hotel PMS, and other building management protocols. Simultaneously, Matt & Massimo’s web developer-friendly interface or APIs makes it possible to seamlessly connect disparate implementations to the central system.

Offering a field control system that is scalable and adaptable to various buildings, including single homes, condos, villas, complexes, offices, hotels, and retail stores, Matt & Massimo aids architects in reliably delivering intelligent building solutions that enhance IoT integrations across their structures. By offering system consulting, certified KNX training, and system device supply, Matt & Massimo enable clients to make the most of their smart home.

Leveraging its expertise in building automation and flexible, scalable, and adaptable systems, Matt & Massimo is becoming a promising player in the smart building landscape.
