We’re the Silent Partner for Flathead Valley Designers

Let’s Embark on a Journey to Engineer Invisible Luxury Together

When a carefully curated room is finished, the best technology experiences are felt. The boom of the surround sound, the awe of the onscreen visuals, and the ease of managing it all discreetly.

For interior designers and architects in the Flathead Valley, a common ghost haunts the final walkthrough: a bulky black television over a handcrafted mantel, or a cluster of plastic switches marring a custom stone wall. These technical eyesores disrupt your design intent.

Luckily, Eyehear is the design-build community’s silent partner, working hard to make technology serve the space, not the other way around. Over the last 25 years, we have refined a collaborative process that keeps your aesthetic vision the star of the show while the AV and smart control technology provides the invisible comfort your clients demand. 

Read along below to learn how we do it.

Collaboration Is Our Primary Driver

Of course, we install equipment, but our expert designers and technicians do so much more than that. We work as an extension of your design team by joining the conversation during the blueprint phase. We help you protect the integrity of your drawings with early planning that allows us to identify "tech-heavy" zones before the first stud is placed. 

We can engineer solutions that disappear into your millwork, ceilings, and wall finishes, ensuring that what you’ve designed for your clients remains exactly as you envisioned it.

Technology Meets Artistry with Our Smart Home Designers

There’s no need for bulky equipment or excessive wiring. Integrating technology into new home builds or retrofit projects is all about enhancing and elevating the elements already chosen for the home, including:

  • Architectural Lighting: Warm-dim and tunable lighting from brands like Ketra perfectly highlights the wood grains and textures you’ve selected, rather than washing them out with standard contractor-grade bulbs.

  • Motorized Window Treatments: Automated shades should move open and shut, of course, but their hem bars should align across the room and complement your design motif. We coordinate these details early so the hardware is completely recessed and out of sight.

  • Hidden Audio & Video: Imagine an ultra-high-def TV hidden behind a piece of motorized art, or invisible subwoofers installed in the drywall without an obtrusive grille.

Blueprint for a Smooth Project Lifecycle

The greatest friction in luxury construction often comes from poor hand-offs between trades. We eliminate this by adhering to a rigorous project management standard designed for the trade professional.

  1. Design & Documentation: We provide detailed low-voltage wire maps and trim schedules so your electrical and framing teams aren't left guessing.

  2. Infrastructure First: The "bones" of the tech, including cabling, thermal management, and AV racks, are tucked away in dedicated equipment closets, never encroaching on your living spaces.

  3. Finish & Calibration: Our technicians treat the job site like a gallery. We coordinate with your painters and finish carpenters to make every keypad and sensor flush, level, and color-matched to your palette.

Eliminate the Friction of Working with Other Trades

We know the frustration of working with integrators who don’t respect your timeline or fail to support the client once the project is over. For over a quarter of a century, we’ve built a legacy based on trust and long-term reliability. We provide your clients with white-glove support, meaning you won’t receive a late-night call because a remote isn't working. We take full ownership of the technology, so you can stay focused on the design.

Let’s Protect Your Next Design

Technology is at its best when it creates a sense of calm and simplicity. Let’s collaborate to ensure your next project in Whitefish or Big Sky is as functional as it is beautiful.
