Interior designers
Coordinate keypads, shade fabrics and pockets, speaker grilles, displays, controls and lighting scenes so technology supports the visual concept.
For interior designersFor architects, designers + builders Phoenix + Scottsdale, Arizona
Camelback Smart Homes helps design and construction teams coordinate luxury home automation, lighting control, automated shades, audio, video, networking and private cinema before details become conflicts in the field.
Technology belongs in the project conversation
Home technology touches the architecture, interiors, electrical plan, HVAC strategy, millwork and construction schedule. It deserves a coordinated scope—not a late collection of devices.
We translate the homeowner’s priorities into a clear technology plan and work alongside the professionals already leading the project. Depending on the contracted scope, coordination may address system intent, device and equipment locations, pathway and power requirements, shade and millwork details, product information, site questions, commissioning and client orientation.
Our role is collaborative and scope-specific. We support the architect, interior designer, builder and relevant engineering trades; we do not replace their professional responsibilities. The goal is a home in which the technology performs beautifully, remains serviceable and respects the design intent.
Choose your discipline
Each profession sees a different part of the project. These pages explain the decisions, documents and coordination that matter most to your work.
Coordinate keypads, shade fabrics and pockets, speaker grilles, displays, controls and lighting scenes so technology supports the visual concept.
For interior designersPlan equipment space, pathways, device locations, shade conditions, audiovisual requirements and controls while the architecture can still respond.
For architectsAlign scope, trade boundaries, rough-in, trim, programming and closeout with the construction schedule and one accountable technology team.
For home buildersA complete residential technology scope
We plan each discipline as part of one reliable, intuitive experience. Final scope is tailored to the residence, the client and the project team.
Unify lighting, shades, entertainment, climate, security and selected lifestyle systems through intuitive interfaces and thoughtfully programmed scenes.
Explore home automation ↗ 02Coordinate dimming, keypads and scenes around the fixture schedule, daily routines and architectural atmosphere.
Explore smart lighting ↗ 03Plan shade types, fabrics, power, pockets and controls with the window package and interior elevations—not after finishes are set.
Explore automated shades ↗ 04Deliver consistent indoor and outdoor listening with speaker locations, amplification and controls designed around the rooms.
Explore distributed audio ↗ 05Coordinate displays, sources, concealment, cabinetry, ventilation and control for clean rooms and uncomplicated viewing.
Explore distributed video ↗ 06Bring room geometry, sightlines, acoustics, loudspeaker placement, projection and control into one purpose-built cinema plan.
Explore home theaters ↗ 07Create the wired and wireless foundation for responsive control, streaming, remote support and the growing number of connected devices.
Explore home networking ↗ 08Integrate cameras, access, alerts and monitoring in a scope that considers coverage, visibility, privacy and everyday use.
Explore security systems ↗ 09Define cable, conduit, equipment locations, power and service access early so the finished system has a dependable backbone.
Explore low-voltage prewiring ↗ 10Coordinate thermostats, shades, fireplaces and selected comfort functions within the broader control experience.
Explore automated comfort ↗ 11Add professionally integrated voice control where it offers a natural, useful way to manage supported home systems.
Explore voice control ↗A coordinated project path
The exact deliverables adjust to the project, but the discipline remains consistent: define, document, coordinate, verify and support.
Clarify homeowner priorities, rooms, performance expectations, budget parameters, design constraints and who owns each decision.
Develop the system approach, infrastructure requirements, device locations, equipment needs and project-specific details.
Review interfaces with architecture, interiors and construction; resolve open items and document approved changes before installation.
Complete rough-in, trim and equipment work in planned stages, with field checks before conditions are concealed.
Program, test and tune the experience; orient the homeowner and project team; then provide a clear path for ongoing service.
What a strong technology partner contributes
The value is not just the equipment. It is the decisions made at the right time and communicated to the people who need them.
Camelback Smart Homes gives the project a single technology point of contact from planning through commissioning. We keep system choices connected to the drawings, finish decisions and construction milestones so the completed home feels intentional rather than added on.
A clear description of included systems, responsibilities, assumptions and exclusions.
Project-appropriate plans, schedules, submittals and field information for coordination.
Decisions and site needs surfaced before rough-in, close-in, millwork and finish installation.
Testing, homeowner orientation, system documentation and an accountable service relationship.
Partner planning questions
Practical answers for Phoenix and Scottsdale teams planning technology into a new build or major renovation.
Ideally, involve the integrator while layouts, reflected ceiling plans, window conditions, millwork and equipment spaces can still be coordinated. Early schematic or design-development conversations are useful even if products have not been selected. We can also enter later, but the team may have fewer options and more field changes to manage.
Deliverables are matched to the scope and phase. They may include a system narrative, proposal, device and speaker locations, rack and equipment requirements, cable and conduit needs, shade details, schedules, submittals, field markups, change documentation and closeout information. We confirm required formats and responsibilities with the project lead.
Yes. Collaborative work is the purpose of this partner program. We coordinate the technology scope with the professionals already responsible for the architecture, interiors, construction, electrical, HVAC and other disciplines. Our documentation supports their work; it does not replace professional design, engineering or permitting obligations outside our scope.
No. We can coordinate a broader residential technology scope that includes automation and control, lighting control, automated shades, whole-home audio, distributed video, private theaters, networking and Wi-Fi, security and monitoring, voice control, comfort integration, low-voltage prewiring and related installation support. The final package is tailored to the project.
We serve luxury residential projects across Greater Phoenix, including Phoenix, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley and nearby communities. For projects outside the core service area, contact our team with the location and schedule so we can confirm whether the right level of planning, installation and long-term support is practical.
Experience you can evaluate
Evaluate more than a product list. Meet the people behind the work, review completed environments, explore the technology partners we support and read what clients say about the experience.
Planning guidance on this page is general. Project documents, engineering, applicable codes, manufacturer requirements and field conditions govern the final scope.
