In that case, I recommend you to have a look at KNX. As I said, it's the only wired+wireless protocol that is open, and is manufactured by multiple producers for tens of years. It even have REST/xml-rpc gateway standard. It's a bit expensive, and the official program to program KNX components is a bit expensive. There are open source versions, but I'm not sure how useable they are. OpenHab had KNX support.
