Our Hawaii and Denver, CO offices collaborated to design and specify audio-visual systems for the County of Hawaii Council Chambers. The Owner's requirements for systems were very specific and forward thinking, requiring a great deal of teamwork and coordination with the Architect and Owner to develop a design that could be implemented and complement the overall vision for the Chambers. The result was a successful system design and installation that met and even exceeded the Owner's expectations.
