When the task is to design and integrate the audio visual systems for the Sheikh Abdullah al Salem Cultural Centre in Kuwait, that's quite a challenge. It's the world's largest museum complex that features 23 galleries, 800 exhibits, a 4D theater and a 1 million-liter aquarium across 22,000 square meters. Add to that searing hot working conditions and the need to coordinate planning and deployment with hundreds of contractors over a 5-year period.

When you ask what it takes, who better to explain than two of the key Electrosonic players on the project - Simon George, Senior Entertainment Consultant, and Nerijus Linauskas, Senior Project Engineer. Electrosonic was involved from the outset, providing technical guidance to the design team, which helped the seamless transition from vision to installation. Automation played a key role in streamlining the many engineering decisions on-site and ensuring consistent quality across the site. Coordination with suppliers, logistics companies and partners on-site was crucial to maintaining the tight schedules. Most important, it was passion for the project that drove the team throughout. The project was so successful that it led to Electrosonic's award of the 2019 Best Museum Project by Commercial Integrator's Integration Award.
