Nova was created with a clear ambition: to make technology feel more natural inside the guest room. Not something that stands apart from the interior design, but something that becomes part of it. A discreet, elegant interface that allows guests to control the room in a simple and intuitive way, while giving hotels the flexibility they need behind the scenes.

The collection includes a smart multisensor thermostat with OLED LCD display and a series of customizable keypads designed to manage lighting, curtains, shades and room scenarios. Its modular structure allows finishes to be replaced over time without changing the installation, making it easier to adapt the product to different interiors, styles and project needs. This is exactly where Nova reflects our approach to hospitality: technology should support the experience, not dominate it. It should help create rooms that feel comfortable and easy to use, while also meeting the operational needs of modern hotels.

Receiving the BIG SEE Product Design Award is another meaningful step in Nova’s journey, following its selection in the ADI Design Index 2025 and its presence at the XXIX ADI Compasso d’Oro Exhibition 2026 at the ADI Design Museum in Milan. A sincere thank you goes to Gensler for bringing its design vision into this project and helping us give shape to a product that speaks the language of contemporary hospitality.

With Nova, VDA Telkonet continues to explore the relationship between design and intelligent environments, developing solutions that are made to work beautifully, both for the people who manage the hotel and for the people who experience it.
