LucasArts AV room Overhaul

Q: What does a nationwide AV integrator actually manage?

A nationwide AV integrator manages the full lifecycle across every site: technology standards, site surveys, engineering documentation, procurement, installation, commissioning, and ongoing support — not just equipment sales.

Q: How is a nationwide rollout different from a single-site AV project?

A single-site project designs for one room's conditions. A nationwide rollout defines approved room archetypes (huddle, conference, boardroom, training, etc.) that get applied consistently, with documented exceptions for site-specific constraints like room size or network policy.

Q: Do all rooms need identical equipment?

No. Standardization applies at the archetype level — a small huddle room and a large boardroom should follow different technology packages, but each package should be repeatable across every site that fits that archetype.

Q: Why does network readiness matter for AV projects?

AV-over-IP video, conferencing appliances, control processors, and digital signage all run as networked devices. Without early planning for VLANs, PoE budgets, and security policy, a well-specified system can still underperform once it's installed.

Q: What happens after installation?

Commissioning tests the system under real conditions — video routing, mic pickup, DSP tuning, and conferencing workflows — before handoff. After that, ongoing support (monitoring, maintenance, escalation) keeps performance consistent as firmware, platforms, and room use evolve.

INTRODUCTION

Our campus at One Letterman (formerly Letterman Digital Arts Center) seamlessly integrates motion picture, animation, visual effects, and gaming technologies in one world-class entertainment studio.

PROJECT NAME
LUCAS One Letterman

LOCATION
San Francisco, CA

SIZE
27,000 SF

CHALLENGE

A prominent entertainment and gaming studio needed to modernize 30+ outdated office rooms across their headquarters. The existing spaces felt tired, inefficient, and no longer supported their creative teams’ collaborative workflow.

SOLUTION

We completely upgraded the interiors of all 30 rooms, including:

New audio video equipment and flexible furniture layouts
Modern lighting, acoustic treatments, and improved climate control
Fresh finishes, branding-aligned color schemes, and technology integration

The entire project was completed in phases, on time with minimal disruption to daily operations.

RESULTS

Delivered on time and within budget
Employee satisfaction scores for the workspace increased by 47% (post-occupancy survey)
Reduced employee time consumption in the renovated areas by 32%
Created a more inspiring and functional environment that better reflects the company’s innovative culture
