Design Packages.
Three engagement tiers, calibrated to project size and ambition. Designed in at the architectural stage — not retrofitted around finished walls.
Specified by leading Vancouver Island architects, designers, and custom builders for projects on the Island and across the mainland.
Designed in.
Not retrofitted around.
Technology integrated at the design stage performs better and disappears into the architecture. When we’re in the conversation at schematic, every option is still on the table — and the technology can help shape the architecture rather than be shaped by it.
Every option is still
on the table.
No walls have been built. No conduit has been run. The technology can shape the architecture rather than be shaped by it. The earlier we’re in the conversation, the more of the design intent stays intact.
Specified with the
window order.
Motors hide in the header, fabric drapery rides motorised tracks, side channels recede into the architecture. The room reads as a room, not as a system.
Drawn to the
home’s footprint at
framing.
The network becomes part of the architecture — fast where it needs to be, invisible everywhere, reliable in every room. The earlier we draw it in, the better it disappears.
Three engagement tiers.
Choose based on project size and ambition. We'll recommend the right tier on your Discovery Call or Centre tour.
