Get Your Foot in the Door with Design-Build
In many high-end residential projects today, the first conversations about technology are happening long before an integrator is even invited to the table. Architects, interior designers and builders are increasingly shaping how technology fits into the home, from the placement of displays and speakers to the integration of lighting, shading and infrastructure. Integrators who understand how to collaborate effectively with these partners are finding themselves involved earlier in projects, gaining greater influence over system design and ultimately delivering better outcomes for clients.

…Artificial intelligence is moving beyond voice assistants and beginning to shape how technology behaves inside the home. From intelligent cameras and adaptive audio to automated system behaviors and smarter control platforms, AI is introducing a new layer of intelligence to residential AV systems. In this session, panelists examine how AI is being applied across AV, security and control platforms, what it means for system design, and how integrators can begin preparing for homes where technology doesn’t just respond to commands but actively interprets the environment.
