TRANSFORMING AUTODESK'S SAN FRANCISCO OFFICE
Autodesk, a global leader in design, AutoCAD, and 3D imaging software, serves various industries including architecture, engineering, construction, design, manufacturing, and entertainment.
PROJECT SCOPE
AVDG was engaged to handle the comprehensive audio-visual, conferencing, and technology integration for Autodesk's relocation to a new San Francisco office spanning four floors.
LARGE CONFERENCE ROOMS
AVDG equipped 12 expansive conference rooms with cutting-edge audio conferencing, video conferencing, and presentation solutions. These rooms featured wall-mounted Samsung displays (86" or 98"), Aver PTZ cameras, and ceiling-mounted Shure MXA910 microphones and speakers. Control was streamlined via iPads on conference tables.

Across 69 small and medium conference rooms, AVDG installed conferencing and A/V systems tailored to room size. These rooms included wall-mounted Samsung displays (55"-60" or dual 65"-70"), AVer and Logitech cameras, and Revolabs speakerphone systems. Control was facilitated through conference table iPads.
EVENT SPACE
For public addresses, video broadcasts, and local presentations, the event space was outfitted with ceiling-mounted projectors, electric projector screens, and a 3x3 video wall. AV controls were managed via wall-mounted Crestron touch panels, while audio was optimized through wireless headsets, handheld microphones, speakers, and QSC DSP audio systems.
