Smart home services for architects

The most effective smart-home systems are considered before layouts and infrastructure are finalised. Early coordination helps establish equipment locations, cable routes, lighting control requirements, speaker positions and network provision, reducing the need for compromises later in the build.

We work with the architect and wider project team to develop a coordinated technical approach that respects the design intent and supports the requirements of the finished property.

We provide specialist smart-home and AV support throughout the design and build process, working with architects, contractors and other project consultants to coordinate the technology within the wider scheme.

Our services include:

• Technical drawings and cable schedules — coordinated plans showing infrastructure requirements and equipment locations.
• First-fix coordination — guidance and oversight for structured cabling, speaker wiring, network points and other system infrastructure.
• Equipment installation and integration — installation and configuration of the specified technology.
• Control4 programming and commissioning — a tailored control system configured around the property and its occupants.
• Specialist AV design — multi-room audio, dedicated cinema rooms and media rooms.
• Networking and security — planned network infrastructure, WiFi coverage and integrated security solutions.
• Handover and aftercare — homeowner training, technical support and ongoing maintenance options.

By involving us early, the technology can be coordinated with the building and interior design before key decisions become difficult or costly to change.
