Whether you’re working on a recently purchased home, a new construction project, or a complete gut rehab, involving our team early in the process ensures a seamless integration of smart home automation systems with your home’s structure. The earlier we’re introduced, the smoother the installation and coordination—and the better the final outcome.
Our comprehensive services include coordinating efforts with architects, carpenters, electricians, and HVAC professionals, ensuring every aspect of your home automation project is executed flawlessly. If your team is already in place, it’s the perfect time to give us a call to ensure your smart home technology integrates seamlessly into your vision.
We work with both homeowners and developers across Chicago neighborhoods like Bucktown, South Loop, West Loop, Old Town, and more. Whether you’re designing a luxury residence or upgrading a current home, we welcome an introduction at any stage of the project to bring your vision to life.

Step 1:
Contact
Simply call or email us for an initial consultation. We’ll want to learn about the scope of the project in terms of the square footage and number of rooms in your home, your primary objectives, and an approximate budget.

Step 2:
Home Visit
We will personally come out to meet with you for a no-cost consultation. We want to hear your ideas and explore the potential of your home, sharing some possibilities that may not have occurred to you. Then we’ll evaluate the project based on your desired outcomes and the logistics involved in working with your space.

Step 3:
Proposal
With your goals and your space in mind, we’ll develop a preliminary custom design. You’ll be presented with a proposal that includes recommended products, functionality for each room and pricing.

Step 4:
Approval
This is the time for you to adjust any part of your design and offer feedback. The Big Picture will work with you to finalize all details and secure your stamp of approval.

Step 5:
Installation
Now that we have your design it’s time to let us take over. Depending on the scope of your project we will work side by side with the appropriate trades such as your general contractor, designer, or electrician. With a detailed timeline we can integrate into any construction schedule while allowing for unforeseen problems and delays.

Step 6:
Protection Plan
Rest assured, we’ll be attentive to your needs long after your project is complete. While today’s systems are very reliable, should you require service or decide to enhance your system, we’ll be there to ensure your needs are met.
