    Elevating SmartSpaces with STA Architectural

    Opening the door to a space that’s truly yours is what our SmartSpaces division within the is committed to – delivering elevated experiences with simplicity and efficiency. We specialize in creating fully integrated, custom-designed automation solutions that provide sophisticated, intuitive control over building environments with ease and precision.

     

    That ease and precision spans over 390 spaces across 85,000 square feet, including more than 80 luxurious units at The Estates at Acqualina. Here, Power Design partnered STA Architectural Group once again to harmonize elegance and cutting-edge technology into a single sophisticated experience.

     

    STA Architectural, a trusted partner, has grown alongside us in our journey of creating custom spaces. This collaboration has allowed both STA and Power Design to grow together in the SmartSpaces sector, building a more than 20-year-long partnership that has spanned thousands of luxurious square feet throughout the Florida market. What are the keys to this successful partnership? Hear directly from Isabel Tragash, Principal at STA Architectural Group below!

    Staying Ahead of Evolving Technologies

    Staying ahead of evolving technologies is essential in the dynamic sector of SmartSpaces. At Power Design, we embrace the challenge by taking a disruptive approach and strategically partner with organizations that prioritize continuous education, stay on the cutting edge of innovation, and actively immerse themselves in emerging trends.

    Through our extensive network of over 16 key partnerships – including leaders like Savant, Lutron, and Crestron – we gain early access to the latest technological advancements. These latest advancements are seamlessly integrated into our projects by our 170-person Systems Technologies team, ensuring the most innovative solutions with a future-ready focus are integrated into the design and installation of our SmartSpaces.

    Like what the team demonstrated for STA at the Estates at Acqualina, all our SmartSpaces can grow with the ever-changing tech landscape. This creates homes that grow with advancements and remain on the forefront of smart living.

    “We have seen how technology has evolved and it's one of the things that you really have to keep up with. That's where we rely on people, on companies that we partner [like Power Design] with to educate us and tell us what's new and what's coming and how it can be done.” Isabel Tragash | Principal | STA Architectural Group 

    Building Strong Relationships as Trusted Partners

    Strong relationships are at the heart of what drives innovation, creativity, and continuous growth within our SmartSpaces division.

    Our partnership with STA has created a seamless flow of communication, ensuring we are engaged with each project from start to finish. Our team isn’t just there to design SmartSpaces – we’re there from concept to completion, delivering a plusONE experience for all involved.

    “We started a project about 20 years ago, and we've evolved, PDI and us. We have zoomed through all the projects, and we've developed this great relationship, very personal, with PDI. They have the ability of assigning a group of people to you, where you actually get to know them, where you can pick up the phone and call them. That's a great relationship right there.” Isabel Tragash | Principal | STA Architectural Group 

    This close collaboration not only allows us to fully understand the unique needs of our clients but also enables us to deliver tailored, high-quality solutions in a timely and efficient manner. Through these trusted relationships, we can consistently exceed expectations and push the boundaries of what's possible in building automation.

    Precision and Efficiency Driving Results

    Delivering results is a core priority, but ensuring those results are achieved with the utmost efficiency is at the top of our list. Creating fully integrated spaces requires more than just seamless execution – it demands a level of proficiency that ensures every detail is carefully considered. This commitment to efficiency and excellence is what truly sets Power Design apart.

    With over 390 spaces successfully integrated to date, we take pride in the fact that our installations have never negatively affected TCO.

    “I always say audio, visual, lighting, electrical, there's always little bumps in construction. And what I really, really appreciate at PDI is when we call them, someone from their staff comes and they always have a smile. They're always like, ‘How can we solve it? We're here to help.’ It makes our clients feel very good, and it makes us look good when we can refer to them.” Isabel Tragash | Principal | STA Architectural Group 

    This track record speaks to our ability to deliver high-quality results while keeping completion dates in the back of our minds. Even when bumps in the road come up, our expertise allows us to consistently source and deliver the right materials at the right time, ensuring that every project is completed on schedule and to the highest standards.
