Tenant Improvement Checklist

I have been asked so many times over the years, what is the process involved in designing and building a commercial space, a Tenant Improvement.  So I collaborated with a contractor to create a checklist which explains every step of the process.  Below is the first page of the checklist.  For the full checklist refer to our Tools page on the www.nminteriors.biz website.

The Retina Group - Sketch at Doctors Office Workstation

For the doctors private office the goal is to create a space that is somewhat flexible and open.  I designed an L-shaped workstation in order to keep the space open in the center of the room as much as possible.  The Doctor will have a small table in the center of the room for small meetings.  She likes wood furniture, but for her needs a wood-look plastic laminate is the answer.  See my rough sketch below and a photo of a similar workstation she liked.  So nice that the options keeping increasing so that we as designers can truly create a space that is specific to the needs of the user!

Sketches for the Retina Group

 

I have been working on a total remodel of an Eye surgeons office in Mesa over the last several months.  Quite excited as the design is developing nicely and the colors/finishes/textures are going to be fantastic.  The waiting room desk was a challenge.  The client/Dr. wants a nice separation between the waiting room and office area.  The solution is custom sliding glass window system which will serve to create some privacy and also give the client the spa-like appearance she wants.  See sketch above! Some of the glass panels at the sliding windows will be frosted.  I am excited to see the final product!
