Audiovisual design
Sound and visuals are part of our everyday lives. Through presentation technology and AV design, we ensure the right audiovisual environment for your space, enhancing the customer experience and work satisfaction.

Audiovisual design tailored to your needs and space
Sound and sound solutions tailored to the environment and operational needs are part of the comfort of working. High-quality presentation technology ensures smooth meetings and great presentations.
We offer presentation and audiovisual design for your venues where it is appropriate to manage sound, image, light or mechanics with high quality. We have the expertise to provide AV design for new buildings as well as the functional finishing to your historically valuable building in a renovation project.
Comprehensive AV design solutions for new construction
We offer our expert AV design services to cover the specific features of new construction, such as a cultural facility, sports and sports venue, educational institution, business premises, hotel, restaurant, commercial, congress and exhibition centre, church and sacred space.
For your project, we start with functional planning before engineering to ensure that the solutions are appropriate to the site and the intended use. Involve us from the start, as AV design also places demands on other planning disciplines. In this way, we avoid having to revise or replan the plans.
"Managing what we see and hear in different environments enables us to live our daily lives and celebrate our holidays."
Thoughtful AV design for renovation projects
We also carry out assessments of your site's audiovisual solutions for renovation projects. We offer cost-effective proposals for modifications and design operations and technology to meet new needs.
If your AV equipment turns out to be outdated or otherwise non-functional, we will help you assess whether some of it may be worth keeping. When the use of the site changes, we will help by updating the audiovisual equipment in the space to reflect the changes.
Detailed AV design plans
We proceed with a goal-oriented approach by refining AV plans at the pace required for your building project. In the early stages of the project, we will indicate the locations of solutions, such as spaces containing audiovisual activities. Our experts have developed a two-dimensional positioning chart to streamline this phase. We can also represent our audiovisual solutions in a building information model.
Our approach includes the compilation of AV-related work instructions into a work specification for building services and technical building works. We always present the drawings and wiring diagrams with the precision required to implement the solutions on site. Our efficient approach will benefit your project.
Presentation technology and AV solutions as part of your environment
AV design is all about creating an audiovisual environment that suits the purpose of your venue. Audible and visual phenomena are managed through presentation technology. The audiovisual activity consists of sound, image, light and mechanics, either together or in part.
- The amplification, reproduction, modification, transmission or recording of sound by means of technology is a decisive factor in the control of auditory phenomena. Spatial perception can be transformed by artificial acoustics.
- A masking system can be used to limit the distraction of speech, for example in multiroom offices. A sound system can also be part of an alarm system.
- Imaging technology is used to control visual content by playing, moving, editing or storing it. An image can also be a reflector, and as such is also used as part of lighting.
- Lighting is connected to AV systems in spaces with audiovisual activities. In addition to general lighting, light can be used to create spaces of different sizes and atmospheres, to decorate or to alarm. In addition to power, the colour, size, shape, sharpness and movement of the light can be controlled.
- The mechanics allow for the adaptability of spaces. It also allows the sound, image and lighting equipment to be moved, making maintenance work, for example, easier.
