Could These 3 AI-Powered Innovations Change The Way We Live?

AI is no longer a futuristic concept—it’s here, woven into everyday life. Whether it’s a casual “Hey Alexa” or a swipe on your phone, intelligent systems are reshaping how we live. Neither saviour nor threat, AI now quietly powers our homes, making them more responsive, intuitive, and inclusive than ever before. In an era shaped by the pursuit of tranquillity, AI is emerging as a quiet collaborator in contemporary home design. It optimises layouts based on how we move, choreographs lighting and climate, and learns our daily rhythms. But its role doesn’t stop at function—AI now informs aesthetics too, from material palettes that respond to the environment to modular furniture and façades that adapt to sunlight. The result? Homes that move in sync with the lives they hold.

Enter AI-powered essentials—whether it’s a smart diffuser that senses your presence or ultra-minimal switches that adjust the ambience, these innovations go far beyond novelty. We’ve curated a selection of intelligent tools that intuit your needs—often before you even realise them.

1. KONE’s Monospace SMART- An Elevator That Thinks

With the advent of KONE’s MonoSpace® SMART elevator, a quotidian task like ascending and descending is transformed into a symphony of engineering, intelligence, and quiet anticipation. Far from being a mere conduit between floors, Kone’s MonoSpace® SMART elevator balances trailblazing technology with thoughtful design, culminating in a seamless mobility experience. With AI-powered 24/7 predictive monitoring, this elevator anticipates glitches before they occur and connects seamlessly with smart building systems. It adjusts ventilation based on occupancy, syncs with smart locks for secure access, and aligns lighting across floors. More than transport, it becomes a responsive node—intuitively adapting to its users while enhancing safety and streamlining daily movement.

Drawing inspiration from the five natural elements, the elevator’s design includes an expanded range of finishes, including Wood Fusion, Art Deco, Stainless Steel, and Exotic Motif across a curated collection of 35 car interiors. Striking a delicate balance between form and function, the elevators use regenerative drives to reclaim up to 30% of energy for redistribution, which contributes to lowering the building’s overall energy consumption, making everyday elevator use eco-conscious. Energy-efficient LED lighting, including award-winning fixtures like the RL20 ring and RS60 spotlights, mimics natural light to create a calm, refined elevator experience, signalling a shift toward spaces that adapt and elevate everyday life.

2. Infinity Artisanal Collection Digital Dream- A Switch That Listens

Few things disrupt comfort like getting up to flip a switch. The ‘Infinity Artisanal Collection’ by Digital Dreams, a design-forward initiative by NCC Telecom Pvt. Ltd., reimagines this everyday interaction as a refined, responsive detail. These handcrafted smart switches combine haptic touch, remote access, and smart device control, all within a clean, minimalist form that celebrates craftsmanship and intelligent design.

In an ode to the ‘Make in India’ movement, each panel in this collection is crafted using antique papier-mâché techniques by local artisans. The result is a series of seamless touchpoints that are technologically adept while also being culturally resonant, adorned with traditional art forms like Gond and Madhubani art on their surface. Designed in an array of finishes that range from marble to brick, these switches can be adjusted to match your aesthetic. At its core, the Infinity Artisanal Collection blends tactile elegance with intelligent function—whether it’s dimming lights with a soft tap, adjusting temperature by voice, or syncing with security systems. Compatible with Alexa, Siri, and Apple HomeKit, these AI-enabled switches combine artisanal craftsmanship with smart convenience, seamlessly integrating into the rhythm and soul of modern living.

3. Briiv 2 Pro- An Air Purifier That Powers a Breath of Fresh Air

In an age of excess urban living, clean air has become a luxury. The system utilises AI-powered sensors to monitor air quality in real-time, detecting harmful particles such as dust and smoke levels via a seamless app interface and provides alerts. Crafted with Yorkshire moss, coconut fibre, and a nano-matrix filtration system, it targets particles, everything from large dust particles ranging from PM10 to ultra-fine pollutants down to PM2.5, ensuring clean, breathable air even in urban interiors, while inviting nature to dwell within. Its modular design enables multiple units to interconnect across rooms, forming a cohesive, responsive air system that nurtures the atmosphere of entire homes or workspaces according to its inhabitants

Housed in durable bioplastics, the filters use 90% less plastic than conventional purifiers and incorporate recyclable, biodegradable elements like moss and coconut fibre, designed to last up to 12 months. A nano matrix refreshes every three months, maintaining optimal performance with minimal intervention. With the ability to diffuse essential oils, Briiv reintroduces scent as a natural extension of clean air, offering a quiet sensory layer to the space.

As technology blends seamlessly into the built environment, objects like air purifiers evolve into sculptural forms. The Briiv 2 Pro, recognised with global design awards including Red Dot and A’ Design, becomes more than a machine—it’s a biophilic gesture, bringing a sense of stillness and nature into contemporary interiors.

In the space between function and feeling, AI crafts sculptural silhouettes, gestures, and materials that carry memory and meaning, melding the boundaries between utility and aesthetics.
