THE TIN BUILDING

THE TIN BUILDING

ABOUT THE TIN BUILDING

Built in 1907, The Tin Building sits by the waters of New York’s East River, between the Brooklyn Bridge and Manhattan’s Financial District. It served as the backdrop to the 200-year-old Fulton Fish Market – one of the largest wholesale seafood markets in the world. Damaged by fi re in 1995, and closed in 2005, The Tin Building sat vacant until acquired by Howard Hughes Corp and leased by multi- Michelin star winning, French-born celebrity chef Jean George.

REQUIREMENTS

The objective was to create an audio system that delivered full-fidelity sound, combined with balanced even coverage throughout the entire building. The challenge was to do this across the 34 zones and 9 sub-zones of the different businesses, with varying ambience and atmosphere objectives. Additionally, the audio system had to blend aesthetically into the carefully curated and vastly varied interior design cues of the project.

THE CHALLENGE

The Tin Building now services as a culinary melting pot, featuring six full-service restaurants, six fast casual food outlets, three bars, and private dining experiences, plus markets with breads, pastries, fruit and vegetables, meats, confectionery, spices and aromatics, olive oils, coffee, and more; personally crafted by Jean-Georges and the world’s best artisans.

BEYOND SOUND

“Given their reputation, we were excited when SIA Acoustics reached out to us to provide system design support. We knew that if they were involved, it was going to be a high-profile and challenging project with big expectations from both the consultant and client alike. The various form-factors, combined with best-in-class sonic performance and clean minimalistic industrial design made Sonance Professional Series the perfect choice.”

– BRIAN DEMPSEY | SONANCE DESIGN SERVICES

METHODOLOGY

Over two hundred Sonance Professional Series loudspeakers were deployed throughout the project, including In-Ceiling, Pendant and Surface-Mount products across various sizes. Sonance’s consistent sonic voicing across form-factors and driver sizes allows the system to provide a seamless soundstage throughout the entire space, while Sonance’s laminated core transformer delivers full-fidelity performance in 70 Volts.

SONANCE PROFESSIONAL SERIES

RESULTS

“As the consultant on this project, we were aware that Jean George wanted to elevate the experience of not just fine food and dining, but also casual dining. So, whether you are sitting inside, or outside if the weather is nice, having high quality, uniform music that varies by zone, was very important to him. We asked Sonance Design Services to help us show that their products would achieve Jean George’s expectations, and they were able to do that by using software to provide coverage maps of the entire project. We got a great level of service from Sonance and the Tin Building is thrilled with the way it sounds.”

STINSON LAKE HOUSE

STINSON LAKE HOUSE

ABOUT THE STINSON LAKE HOUSE

“This home is meant to be experienced, not just lived in or not just turn on music. It starts as you walk and the lights come on  filling every corner of the space… It’s cool to me to know how much technology is in the space and where it all is and how it doesn’t feel that way, how it just is where it needs to be and it isn’t where it doesn’t need to be, but at the same time, it’s accessible and usable.”

ALEX LELCH – PRESIDENT, LELCH AUDIO VIDEO

REQUIREMENTS

Client expectations were clear – an immersive audio experience without the intrusion of visible speakers. Lelch Audio Video, the technology integration experts brought in to collaborate on this no-compromise project, were tasked with delivering exceptional audio while ensuring the technology seamlessly blended into the architecture. The speakers had to be discreet yet powerful enough to enhance the overall experience. Hiding the speakers was a given requirement, but it was critical for Lelch AV to craft an environment where sound would become an integral part of the living space.

THE CHALLENGE

Architectural elegance meets cutting-edge audio technology in a challenge that demands seamless integration. Charles Stinson, the visionary architect for this lake house project, faced the task of concealing speaker technology within the walls and ceilings of a luxurious home project in Lake Minnetonka, Minnesota. “The challenge was to create a space where technology complements the architectural beauty, enhancing the environment without compromising it” Stinson reflects.

BEYOND SOUND

“As an architect, you have to make a lot of things disappear because you just want to see the light in the space, but have it function. This need for invisibility extends beyond mere aesthetics — it encompasses the functionality of the space, especially when it comes to audio systems.”

– CHARLES STINSON, ARCHITECT

VIDEO SPOTLIGHT

METHODOLOGY

Collaboration between Stinson and Lelch became the cornerstone of the project’s success. “Our approach involved using Sonance and James, in-wall, and in-ceiling speakers” explains Alex Lelch, President of Lelch Audio Video. “Meticulous planning during the construction phase ensured optimal placement of Sonance Invisible and James Small Aperture speakers, guaranteeing flawless integration into the design of the home.” Stinson emphasizes the precision required, stating, “This was about more than just cutting holes; it was about careful planning to achieve a perfect balance between architectural design and audio technology.”

RESULTS

The meticulous planning and expert execution culminated in a home where technology and design coexist harmoniously. “The end result surpassed our expectations,” beams Stinson. “Each room now boasts an immersive audio experience without compromising the architectural integrity of the space. The speakers are virtually invisible, yet the impact on the atmosphere is undeniable.” Lelch concurs, “This project exemplifies what happens when design and technology collaborate. The speakers seamlessly integrate into the environment, enhancing the overall aesthetic.” In the end, the high-end home project stands as a testament to the successful fusion of architectural ingenuity and audio expertise. The collaboration between architect Charles Stinson and audio dealer Alex Lelch has not only met but exceeded the client’s vision, creating a home where every space is a symphony of design and technology

THE CHALLENGE

Imagine a lakeside home nestled in the tranquil woodlands of Michigan, where the serenity of nature meets the sophistication of modern design. This was the vision presented to Kelley Wunder, General Manager at Premier Systems, by the esteemed architect Jon Heinert. The challenge? To seamlessly integrate cutting-edge audiovisual technology into the architectural masterpiece without compromising its natural aesthetic.

REQUIREMENTS

The client’s unique taste called for hidden audio solutions that would blend seamlessly with the surroundings, both indoors and out. The goal was to create a space where technology would enhance rather than detract from the natural beauty of the environment. Specifically, the client sought an audio solution that would disappear into the slatted wood ceilings, ensuring a clean and unobtrusive look.

METHODOLOGY

Working closely with Heinert and his team, Premier Systems embarked on a journey to transform the lakeside retreat into a modern sanctuary. Leveraging their expertise in high-end custom audio and home automation, Premier Systems collaborated with the architect and interior designers to develop bespoke solutions tailored to the client’s needs. Central to their approach was the integration of James SA63 speakers, designed to seamlessly blend into the slatted wood ceilings while delivering impeccable audio quality. When drywall or wallpaper was the primary medium Sonance Invisible Speakers matched the aesthetic and performance needs of the client. Hiding technology outside was of equal importance. The James on-wall speakers hidden within the masonry along with James outdoor AT series created a barely visible immersive musical experience.

RESULTS

The collaborative effort resulted in remarkable outcomes. Premier Systems concealed James SA63 speakers within the wood ceilings, delivering premium audio discreetly throughout the lakeside retreat. Their attention to detail and innovative approach, in partnership with manufacturers like James and Sonance, crafted a bespoke audiovisual experience that surpassed expectations. This collaboration showcases the transformative potential of merging design and technology. Setting a new standard for luxury living, it exemplifies the seamless integration of nature’s beauty with audiovisual sophistication in Michigan’s woodlands.

THE CHALLENGE

 Creating a first-class experience for athletes at the 200,000 square foot Ravens’ Under Armour Performance Center presented a unique challenge.

The need for a seamless audio system became evident as the Ravens aimed to elevate their training environment and provide a rich, motivating experience for their players.
