Technology CPD for Architects and Interior Designers

Practical CPD on lighting, shading, hidden speakers and home technology, with ideas your design team can use on real projects.

A useful technology CPD gives your team ideas they can take straight back to a drawing. We focus on the decisions architects and interior designers meet in practice: where controls belong, how equipment is concealed and what needs coordinating before first fix.

Lighting and shading in the interior

We discuss Lutron scenes, keypad finishes and the relationship between fittings, drivers and controls. For motorised shading, we look at pockets, power, fabrics and access alongside the window and ceiling details.

The aim is to make the technology conversation easier with clients and to give the project team a clearer brief.

Sound and screens without visual clutter

Architectural and invisible speakers, concealed projection and media-room layouts each have their own construction detail. We explain the space and finishes they need, using practical examples of how AV can belong in a well-designed room.

From ideas to technical design

The session can lead into a discussion about drawings, schedules and responsibilities on a live project. We show how a room brief develops into the information needed for coordinated installation and handover.

Arrange a session for your practice

Tell us your team’s interests and the kind of projects you work on. We can discuss the available session content and format, and shape a useful conversation around lighting, shading, cinema or integrated homes.

Explore our design-team CPD page and send us your preferred topic. We look forward to meeting the team.
