San Francisco (2021)
BBI was deeply involved in the creation of KQED’s beautifully upgraded headquarters in San Francisco. In addition to standard conference rooms, there are large presentation venues with voice lift systems, an impressive lobby with a large LED wall showing KQED produced media, and complex paging and signage systems. The jewel of the building is the Commons, a theatre with a complex and high end AV system that allows KQED to do an entirely new set of live events programming. When we attended the first show, it was a true pleasure to watch the pros at KQED operate the systems better than we ever could.
