I use both Philips Hue and Belkin WeMo products to automate the lighting in my house. I have to use two separate apps to control the products, so I was happy to hear about Apple’s HomeKit, which promised to be a single, centralized solution to control all your home automation products.

I’ve shown you pictures of my desk that I custom designed from Elfa components at the Container Store. I designed a perfect desk for myself, and then I was able to easily turn that one person desk into a two-person desk when my husband wished he had a new desk, too. That desk was built
