When should electrical drawings be coordinated with the interior designer?

Before the project is issued for execution. At that point, positions of controls, outlets, sensors, thermostats, lighting and other equipment can still be checked against renders, materials, furniture and finishes.

Does AVIORA change the interior concept?

No. Our role is not to change the designer's idea, but to check whether the technical infrastructure can fit into that idea without disturbing the space.

What do you check through renders?

Positions of switches, outlets, thermostats, sensors, lighting, speakers, cameras, intercoms, access systems, cabinets, service access and visible devices in relation to finishes, furniture, ceilings and the atmosphere of the space.

Technology that respects the interior

The designer protects the atmosphere of the space. Our role is to make sure technical systems, installations and devices do not disturb it — before the project is issued for execution.

// AVIORA role

We do not design interiors. We protect them from poorly placed technology.

In a high-end space, technical systems must not behave like elements added after the design was finished. Switches, outlets, sensors, thermostats, cameras, speakers, lighting, screens and access systems become part of the interior, even when they are not meant to be decorative.

That is why technical decisions must be coordinated with interior design early enough. Technology should support the space, not burden it.

Atmosphere

We check equipment positions against materials, finishes, lighting and the rhythm of the space.

Function

The technical system must remain understandable to the people who use it every day.

Execution

We solve issues before construction, while positions can still move without drama.

Respect

We do not change the designer's idea; we help it be executed without technical compromises.

// Key step before execution

When drawings and renders meet

Our practice is to send the finished electrical design drawing to the interior designer for review.

In the same way, we expect the designer to send us the render or visualization of the space.

This step is done before the project is issued for execution. Only when the technical drawing and the visual intention of the interior are compared can we check whether all positions are truly aligned with the space that will be built.

The technical drawing shows where switches, outlets, sensors, thermostats, lighting, speakers, cameras, intercoms, access systems and other devices are located.

The render shows how the space will actually look once it receives materials, furniture, lighting, finishes and atmosphere.

When these two views meet early enough, many issues disappear before they reach the construction site.

// What we check

Technically correct is not always spatially correct

Switches, controls and outlets

A position can be correct electrically, but visually wrong in relation to wall cladding, a mirror, furniture, paneling or the interior composition.

Sensors, thermostats and visible devices

A sensor can function reliably while disturbing a clean ceiling. A thermostat can be on a logical route but at the wrong height or in conflict with furniture.

Lighting, scenes and control

Lighting is not just an electrical circuit. It is part of the atmosphere. That is why we check scene logic, lighting zones, dimming, DALI control and intuitive operation.

Equipment that should not be seen

Cameras, speakers, access systems, intercoms, rack equipment, service access and technical locations must be solved so the space remains clean and the system remains serviceable.

For the designer

Fewer late compromises

When technical positions are confirmed through the render, the designer keeps control over lines, materials, heights and the atmosphere of the space.

Aligned positions of controls, sensors and thermostats
Fewer unplanned devices on finished surfaces
Cleaner walls, ceilings and interior details

For the investor

Fewer decisions on site

When the render and drawing are aligned before execution, there is less improvisation, demolition, relocation and expensive late correction.

A clearer project for installers
Fewer conflicts between aesthetics and installations
Greater confidence that the space will look as intended

Our principle

The designer protects the atmosphere of the space. We help ensure technology does not disturb that atmosphere.

The best technical system in a high-end interior does not seek attention. It supports the space, light, temperature, privacy, sound and everyday life without forcing users to constantly think about it.

// Coordination before execution

When drawing and render meet

Before issuing the project for execution, we coordinate with the interior designer. The technical drawing shows equipment positions, while the render shows how the space will actually look. Only when these two views are compared can details be identified before they disrupt the atmosphere of the space.

Send the render before the project goes to execution

We will coordinate the technical drawing with the visual intention of the interior and check positions that may disturb the space if discovered too late.
