What AV Design & Integration does

AV Design & Integration Inc. is a privately held audio-visual design and integration firm founded in 1992, headquartered at 115 Wall Street in Valhalla, New York. The company operates a multi-vertical services model organized around three divisions — Residential, Commercial, and Multi-Dwelling Unit (MDU) — each marketed through a dedicated website (avdesignresi.com, avdesignbusiness.com, avdesignmdu.com). Core services include custom AV system design, installation, and programming for homeowners, businesses, and property developers, with use cases spanning home theater, smart-home automation, conference room AV, digital signage, and building-wide amenity systems.

The firm runs a sales-led, project-based engagement model with no disclosed subscription or recurring-revenue component. Customers receive custom quotes via phone consultations or website inquiries, with the company maintaining dedicated local phone numbers in Manhattan (646-873-7559), Westchester (914-345-2977), and Fort Lauderdale (954-960-3254) to support regional sales coverage. The technology is physical AV integration — audio, video, control, and automation components — rather than software or AI. The firm is small (11–50 employees), founder-led (Michael Demello, Founder & President), and has no disclosed outside investors, partnerships, or funding events.

Geographic footprint is concentrated in two U.S. coastal markets: New York (Valhalla HQ plus Manhattan sales presence) and South Florida (Fort Lauderdale). The company earned a feature in CEPro magazine in February 2020, providing industry-recognition credibility. Operating status is active; no financial figures (revenue, ARR, GMV), no customer logos, and no management-team rosters beyond the founder are disclosed, and the website carries a 2020 copyright, limiting insight into recent activity.
