Engineering Disciplines
Acoustics, audiovisual and building technology engineering
IHD covers six technical disciplines that increasingly depend on one another. Designing them within one practice means one coordinated set of requirements, one network strategy and one point of accountability for the client team.
01 / Acoustics · 21 portfolio projects
Architectural Acoustics
IHD’s acoustic consultants shape how rooms sound and how buildings keep noise out — from performance venues and events halls to worship spaces, hotels and corporate offices across the Philippines.
- Architectural acoustics
- Environmental noise
- Mechanical system noise
- Noise mitigation
- Acoustic surveys
- Sound system design
02 / Audiovisual · 29 portfolio projects
Audiovisual & Multimedia
We design audiovisual systems that make presentations, collaboration, worship and entertainment work — and stay simple to operate — in boardrooms, auditoriums, ballrooms and public venues.
- Audio systems
- Display technologies
- Signal distribution
- Networked AV
- Lighting design & control
- Entertainment systems
03 / Security · 7 portfolio projects
Security Systems
Layered security that protects people, assets and operations — surveillance, access control and intrusion detection designed as one coordinated system with centralised monitoring.
- CCTV & video surveillance
- Access control
- Intrusion detection
- Visitor management
- Security command centers
- Integrated security platforms
04 / Information Technology · 10 portfolio projects
IT & ELV Infrastructure
The network is now the backbone every other building system depends on. We design resilient, scalable IT and extra-low-voltage infrastructure for hotels, offices, residences and resorts.
- Structured cabling & ELV pathways
- Network architecture
- Data center design
- Wireless solutions
- Unified communications
- Network security
05 / BMS & IoT
BMS, IoT & Smart Buildings
Connected buildings that sense, respond and improve. We design building management, energy monitoring and IoT platforms that link plant, devices and people to raise comfort, efficiency and operational performance.
- Building management systems (BMS)
- Energy & power monitoring (EPMS)
- Smart building platforms
- Sensor networks
- Automation & control
- IoT connectivity
06 / GRMS
Guest Room Management
Rooms that respond to guests and save energy when they leave. We design guest room management systems that bring lighting, climate, entertainment and services under one intuitive control layer.
- In-room automation
- Guest control interfaces
- Energy management
- Entertainment systems
- Door lock integration
- Maintenance alerting
Integrated Delivery
Why one practice for six disciplines
Many of our projects engage several disciplines at once — acoustics with audiovisual in churches and ballrooms, or all four of acoustics, AV, IT and security in resorts and residential towers.
01
Shared infrastructure
AV, security, IoT and guest room systems all run over the IT network. Designing them together avoids gaps and duplication.
02
Coordinated spaces
Room acoustics, loudspeakers, displays, cameras and sensors compete for the same walls and ceilings. We resolve that on paper first.
03
One accountable team
Owners and design teams deal with one consultancy for requirements, reviews and commissioning across disciplines.
