DESIGN FIRST

This is where we begin all of our projects. And where all of the myths about what we do fall away, leaving clients with brilliant, valuable clarity. It's wonderful.

Our Design First process thoroughly educates our clients on technology opportunities, options, and trends, then provides a forum for articulating preferences and comfort zone – on both the technology itself and the budget.

Simple. Seamless. Beautiful. Yes. You can have all three.

Oftentimes you’re forced to choose — faster, cheaper, “good enough.” Oh how we loathe “good enough.” Circumstances on new construction or renovations often dictate that sacrifices need to be made in order to remain on schedule or on budget. But all too often, clients have not been equipped with knowledge or a personalized vision for how technology can enhance their life at home, every day. Let alone allowed to express what their actual preferences are for using that technology.

WHEN DESIGN COMES FIRST, YOU GET EVERYTHING.

When a well-considered plan is created at the outset, we meet budgets, exceed expectations, and ensure that your home absolutely sings. In fact, that’s the very essence of our company name and that’s the goal: to get all the technological components and aspects of a home working in perfect harmony. All for your pleasure and pure delight.

LET'S GET GRANULAR. RIGHT FROM THE START.

During the architectural design phase, you become aware of all possible options and are able to make real and confident decisions for your project. These decisions then become guiding principles that inform not just the lighting and technology design, but other dependent facets of the project such as space planning, interior design elements for cabinetry and ceiling details, electrical wiring, HVAC systems, energy management, and much more.

By considering the possibilities and your preferences right at the start, the result of our DESIGN FIRST phase is a comprehensive and organized plan for how lighting and technology will be fully integrated into the construction of your unique home, done at the phase of the project where these elements can be integrated without compromise.
