DESIGN AND BUILD

Design and build removes the handoff that kills commercial projects. Instead of hiring an architect, then bidding it out, then discovering the design can't be built for the budget, one team owns the outcome from first sketch to final inspection. We design to your budget from day one, value-engineer while it's still cheap to change, and build it ourselves — interior work only, which is why our estimates hold.

  • Programming, test fits and space planning
  • Construction documents and MEP engineering coordination
  • Permit filing, expediting and inspections
  • Budget development and value engineering before drawings lock
  • Full construction management with a single point of contact
  • One contract covering design and construction

What's Included

Test Fits & Programming

We test layouts against headcount, workflow and lease square footage before design fees pile up.

Design Documents

Permit-ready drawings and specs coordinated with structural and MEP engineers.

Budget-First Design

Every design decision is priced as it's made, so the drawings and the budget never diverge.

Value Engineering

Alternates presented with real cost and schedule impact — not vague suggestions.

Permitting

Filing, expediting and AHJ coordination handled in-house, not passed back to you.

Construction

Our own crews and vetted trades execute the design we drew, under one warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose design and build over hiring an architect separately?

One contract, one accountable party, and pricing that tracks the design in real time. There's no gap where the design comes in over budget and everyone blames someone else.

Can you use our existing drawings?

Yes. If you already have an architect or a permit set, we'll build to it. Design and build is an option, not a requirement.

Is the price fixed?

Yes — once the scope is defined we lock the price. No surprise change orders unless you request a change.

Do you build ground-up?

No. We do interior build-outs, fit-outs, tenant improvements and remodels only.

Which markets do you serve?

New York City and Connecticut, Dallas–Fort Worth, and South Florida from Palm Beach to the Keys.
