New digs and virtual high fives. We’re celebrating some pivotal events of our past year.
Planned and unplanned moments of in person collaboration cannot be replaced and are greatly missed. Remote work has challenged us, but overall made us hang together in remarkable ways. We’ve grown – with cause to celebrate as we mark some key corporate milestones of the past year.
New Appointments!

New Office Headquarters!
After nearly 40 years at 44 Mobile Drive, we outgrew our premises there. November 1, 2020 was the official move date to our new headquarters at 90 Sheppard Avenue East. Suite 500’s spacious and mod new digs stand ready for our physical return to the office. In addition to a fresh new take on interior design, the move was an opportunity for a complete systems and technology reset, allowing us to showcase innovations in lighting and lighting controls, a robust and resilient ICT network, electronic security, AV presentation, room booking and digital signage systems, and office intelligence initiatives that tie all systems together. The tangible and the visual, together with all the “unseen functionalities” perfectly embody the firm’s commitment to an empowered and personalized experience, via light, systems and technology. The new office is getting rave reviews in the industry, including a shout-out as a lighting and lighting control success story!
