Overview Today's corporation - large and small - cannot afford to create an office environment

that will not respond to change. Furthermore, conventional planning and construction continues to prove, time and time again, that it limits creativity, is inherently inflexible and any change that can occur is heavily laden with hard and soft costs. In a word, conventional construction is inefficient. Enter Architectural Interior Landscaping!  It is not uncommon for a corporation to go through the entire planning process for a new facility only to realize that they have changed their work processes before the space is even completed or to have simply changed their mind on the plan itself.  To accommodate these changes using conventional construction methods would cost thousands of dollars in change orders, thousands of dollars of wasted materials and lengthen the project schedule.  Architectural Interior Landscaping is the blueprint for a workplace that is efficient and effective.  It allows your team to work the best way they can to perform each and every function of their job as they know it today and the way it may be defined tomorrow.  A workplace that will minimize construction budgets, expedite move in schedules and maximize your investment in people and real estate.  It is pulling from the best sources and building a high performance, sustainable office environment.

Furthermore, Architectural Interior Landscaping minimizes electrical wiring, cabling and general construction contingencies and incidentals.  By utilizing pre-manufactured products for many of the "built-out" elements of a new office environment, project schedules are condensed and move-in schedules are expedited.

Modular Millwork Maintaining flexibility throughout the work environment and enhancing interaction

continues through the utilization of modular millwork.  Conventional built-in cabinets and various interior furnishings only limit functionality and can hinder productivity.  From break areas to work/mail centers modular millwork applies the Architectural Interior Landscaping concept to traditionally fixed in place construction while providing the superior quality of furniture craftsmanship.

Private Office Desking Solutions Desk and credenza - not anymore!  Support of technology, flexible and image

consciousness are the features that all take front seat to the old standard.  Mid management and up are demanding that their environment be just as functional as it is attractive.  As office sizes decrease it is imperative to produce new and innovative ways to create work space, support workflow and allow for interaction with others in the company.

Technology Integrated Presentation Furniture Bridging the gap between furniture and technology with fully integrated solutions

without the time and expense of construction.  Provide access to the latest plug-and-play technology necessary for high impact areas of your facility -  Conference Rooms, Boardrooms, Training Rooms, Executive Briefing Centers, Customer Presentation Centers, Network Operation Centers and Audio and Video Conference Rooms.   Finally, real solutions for real problems at a cost effective price.

Sound Masking Systems The addition of sound masking to the Architectural Interior Landscape provides

two critical benefits to the functionality of the facility.  First, the addition of sound masking is the acoustical equivalent to tripling the distance between workers. Second, because employees now have the same privacy at 15 feet of separation as they would from 45 feet a lower real estate cost per square foot per employee can be achieved.

Workflow Organization Tools To your workers this will be one of the most important issues they will encounter. 

Because everyone works just a bit different there has to be a degree of flexibility available to each person to "customize" his or her workspace.  Whether it is having "hot project" files at their fingertips or proper ergonomic support for their computer keyboard, allowing the creation of individual space can increase morale and productivity at every level.

Conventional Construction Inefficient use of labor and wasted materials Time schedules that are difficult to predict and even harder to maintain Project schedules which are codependent on multiple, independently operated

vendors, trades and sub-contractors Change order after change order costing thousands and thousands of dollars Finally move in and now the need to make a change. Take all of the above, add

more money and repeat. Conventional planning and construction continues to prove, time and time again,

that it limits creativity, is inherently inflexible and any change that can occur is heavily laden with hard and soft costs.

In one word conventional construction methods are – INEFFICIENT!
