For Interior Designers

Preserve the palette.Conceal the performance.

Speakers, screens, keypads and racks arrive as objects to hide. We resolve them into the material story — quiet control that serves the architecture, not the other way round.

Design intent, resolved

Five places technology meets the interior

The cinema, dressed as a room

Baffle walls, acoustic fabric and speaker positions resolved into the joinery and finish schedule — so the performance surface reads as material, not equipment.

  • Screen wall and masking integrated with the wall build-up
  • Fabric, timber and stone selected for acoustic behaviour and palette
  • Seating datum coordinated with sightlines and proportion

Concealing performance in the palette

Every speaker, keypad and screen is placed against your finish plan — mounting height, reveal and material coordinated so the scheme reads exactly as drawn.

Lighting as a material, not a grid

Scenes are tuned to your palette and the way each room is used, with the fewest, best-placed keypads — light becomes part of the material story.
The shared language

Standards we design around

Decisions made upstream, in language every member of the project team can hold us to.

Because the residence is private, the lesson is public

Project typologies

No client, no address, no attribution — the spatial problem and how it was resolved.

Glass-envelope media room

A living pavilion with three glazed walls asked to perform as a cinema after dark.

Constraint
No wall depth for acoustic treatment or concealed speakers, and a fully reflective envelope.
Intervention
A retractable acoustic layer, in-ceiling coordination and a motorised screen datum resolved into the ceiling plane before services were set.
Resolved
A room that reads as architecture by day and holds an RP22-aligned target by night.
CinemaRP22Concept–Tender
Three-row subterranean cinema

A basement dedicated room with a low structural soffit and a fixed slab-to-slab height.

Constraint
Sightlines, riser heights and ceiling speaker positions competed for the same 180mm.
Intervention
Sectional coordination of riser geometry, baffle-wall depth and a plenum reservation, drawn against the acoustic model.
Resolved
Every seat clears the row in front and sits inside the immersive layout with no site rework.
CinemaSightlinesCoordination
Whole-home control in a heritage residence

A listed residence where visible switching and trunking were not permitted.

Constraint
Lighting control and network infrastructure with near-zero architectural footprint.
Intervention
A keypad language matched to existing joinery, concealed pathway reservations and a plantroom sited away from living zones.
Resolved
A control layer the client can feel but never see — the heritage fabric untouched.
LightingAutomationConcealment
Rooftop pavilion with a shared plantroom

A detached entertainment pavilion served from the main-house head-end across a courtyard.

Constraint
Cable runs, heat and serviceability had to be reserved before the landscape was locked.
Intervention
An infrastructure spine — pathway reservations, rack ventilation and service access — coordinated into the drawings at concept.
Resolved
First fix proceeded without a single reactive penetration or exposed conduit.
AutomationInfrastructureConcept
Open-plan living with invisible lighting scenes

A double-height living space where the interior designer's palette led every decision.

Constraint
Lighting had to sculpt the material story without a visible keypad array or downlight grid.
Intervention
A scene-led control topology, minimal keypad placement and fixture schedules coordinated to the finish plan.
Resolved
Atmosphere on demand, with the palette and proportion of the room fully preserved.
LightingInterior intentScenes
Acoustically-isolated media room beside bedrooms

A first-floor media room sharing walls and a floor with quiet sleeping zones.

Constraint
Low-frequency energy could not migrate into adjacent rooms, within a standard stud build-up.
Intervention
An isolation strategy — decoupled linings, mass targets and a service-penetration protocol — drawn as sections for the builder.
Resolved
Reference levels inside; a measured, calm result on the other side of the wall.

Send the palette, start the coordination

The scheme leads. The technology follows.

Bring us the material story and the plans. We'll resolve the performance systems into the palette before a single fixing is set.
