Design informed
by the real world.
Robert’s professional background includes heavy display assemblies, custom motion systems, fabrication documentation, and complex site coordination. Explore representative project scopes below.
Freestanding conference display
The challenge
Two 16 ft × 4.5 ft displays needed freestanding supports elevated approximately 5 ft above the finished floor, with the base connections integrated beneath a raised subfloor.
Design & coordination scope
The work included coordinating with the project structural engineers, general contractor, and architect on adjustable base plates and support legs. Custom mounts, finish trim, dual-camera enclosures, wiring diagrams, fabrication drawings, presentation drawings, and on-site assembly instructions completed the design package.
Project focus
- 3D CAD and customer presentation drawings
- Custom mounts, structural legs, and adjustable base plates
- Camera enclosures, trim, and wiring documentation
- Fabrication drawings, assembly instructions, and site coordination
LA Metro display support
The challenge
A support system for two 40 ft × 10 ft displays had to span approximately 20 ft from the floor slab to the overhead deck and fit the existing Los Angeles installation environment.
Design & coordination scope
The design required coordination with structural engineering teams on seismic loading requirements. Existing electrical systems, building beams, deck connections, and architectural and MEP obstructions informed the support layout and installation details.
Project focus
- 3D CAD with Revit and AutoCAD coordination
- Structural-engineer coordination for seismic requirements
- Existing beam, deck, electrical, and MEP interfaces
- Presentation and fabrication drawings, wiring diagrams, and assembly instructions
Sliding residential display
The challenge
A 16 ft × 9 ft display positioned in front of a large window needed a cantilevered, ceiling-suspended support system that could retract for front-side service.
Design & coordination scope
Specialized sliding rails and integrated leveling adjustments provided the required movement and alignment. The design accommodated ceiling HVAC, electrical systems, window conditions, and server racks behind the display. Custom black trim concealed the support system and finished the surrounding areas.
Project focus
- Custom cantilevered support and sliding-rail system
- Integrated leveling and front service access
- HVAC, electrical, window, and server-rack coordination
- Fabrication drawings, black trim, assembly instructions, and installation coordination
Motorized horizontal display
The challenge
A heavy display needed to travel along a custom motorized track while fitting the site and surrounding finishes.
Design & coordination scope
The work covered the track and support design, wire management, finish details, control safety coordination, trade interfaces, and installation sequencing.
Project focus
- Motorized track and support-system design
- Wire management and service considerations
- Field conditions and installation coordination
Motorized vertical display
The challenge
A vertically traveling display needed to move through an existing structure while coordinating with building steel and architectural conditions.
Design & coordination scope
The project required mechanical integration, review of movement clearances and support conditions, field-team coordination, and installation guidance.
Project focus
- Display path and clearance coordination
- Chain motor and mechanical integration
- Existing steel interfaces and field review
Suspended multi-motor display
The challenge
A suspended display needed to fit through a constrained architectural gap while integrating with existing building conditions.
Design & coordination scope
The work involved support and clearance coordination, guidance to the architectural team, installation-focused detailing, and deconfliction of existing conditions.
Project focus
- Heavy suspended assembly coordination
- Constrained architectural clearances
- Building interfaces and installation planning
