Design-Focused Thermostats

Nest Labs' 'Nest Thermostat E' Blends into Any Home's Interior

Thermostats are a necessity in any modern home, yet their rather obtrusive and often bulky designs can sometimes be an eyesore among one's carefully curated interior, a common problems that caused Nest Labs to expand its thermostat line to include the 'Nest Thermostat E' -- a thoughtfully designed, home-integrated thermostat.

The design features a minimalist, user-friendly facade that will subtly blend into any home. To make things even easier, the app-enabled device can be controlled remotely through a smartphone, offering users the ability to adjust the temperature from the comfort of their own bed. Perfect for the monetary or environmentally conscious consumer, the Nest Thermostat E will turn itself off when it senses no one is home, offering a device which privileges simplicity and control.
