[QUOTE="Richard-the-Ninth, post: 356907, member: 23472"] As I said, i have seen what you want done several times. It is all controlled from a series of "dimmer / switch packs" each room has its own plate with buttons and a display (Some I have seen are just single LEDs others are multiple LED displays) But I would guess they only use a small data cable to connect the buttons to the "controls" The lights are then wired back to the controls, must be judging by the number of cables they all have. (One cable from each set of lights in each room to a central point.) Oh and they need a big dedicated cupboard for it to go in. But as has been said all along, you can't wire anything until you know what you will be installing (and can afford) I think, not 100% sure the name lutron rings a bell If it helps I am sure there is a lamp (just the one) that you can control from an iphone, it changes colour etc, but there are other options mostly to do with LEDs and dedicated lamps / controllers, but its down to you as to what you want.
