WHAT IS LIGHTING DESIGN/BUILD?
Lighting is our passion. We take careful consideration of spatial illumination requirements and energy usage in conjunction with sustainability and aesthetics which can result in a space with a natural and appealing environment.
Lighting design/build is an alternative to the traditional project-bid delivery method. The vast majority of our design/build opportunities revolve around existing facilities, replacing old with new technology. We work directly with the owners and occupants to find the best design possible. We partner with many of the best manufacturers to ensure you get the right products for your specific applications.
Streamlining project delivery through a single contract between the owner and the design build team creates an alliance, which fosters collaboration and teamwork. United from the outset of every project, an integrated team readily works to successfully complete a project faster, more cost effectively and with fewer change orders.
