COMMERCIAL ARCHITECTURE SERVICES

Improve your business with a building designed for better productivity ...

Built by experienced Hudson Valley commercial architects.

We believe that good architecture and good design are good for business.

The design, the layout, the form, the light, and the overall atmosphere are all aspects that contribute to the great experience of working in your building.

With the right team in place, you will have a space that fits your business goals and allows you to work more productively. This will save you money and support the long-term health and well-being of your staff and your customers.

Productive employees are more profitable

Maximize the efficient use of space in your new facility.

Maximum productivity with a high-performance building designed around how you work.

We plan every project with high detail to meet your specific needs. This means that your building will be optimized for the tasks and activities of you and your staff.

Your business will benefit from a thousand little details designed to make everything as efficient and productive as possible.

Tom Passero

"In my former building, there was a lot of wasted space and time because the layout was wrong.

Alfandre and his team did a comprehensive workflow analysis of how we see patients, how we manage them from their first visit to their last visit, and what sorts of tasks are done by different staff people.

With Rick's analysis, we went from under 50% efficiency to a targeted 80%.

 The change in health care came about shortly after we moved in here. The building helped us to be more efficient and maintain a level of profitability, even in a turbulent time for the industry.”

WITH OUR EXPERTISE IN SUSTAINABLE DESIGN, YOU WILL HAVE THE COST-SAVING BENEFIT OF ENERGY EFFICIENCY

Sustainable building is not just about reducing the environmental impact of building through efficient design and less toxic materials.

It’s also the most efficient and effective way to save money over the long term.

From the start of every project, we plan carefully to achieve maximum efficiency by making the most of every space and the materials used.

For the client, that means a reduction in cost, as well as a reduction in aggravation during the construction process because everything is designed to minimize wasted effort and wasted materials.

Once the design and build phase is over, you’ll truly begin to reap the benefits of sustainable design.

By using smart design, good materials and efficient systems, you will reduce your energy consumption. Through the use of solar panels, passive solar design, heat sinks, better insulation and many other such techniques, your energy consumption will be significantly reduced.

We will walk you through all of your available options so that you can decide which are right for your specific project.

An airtight building is a more efficient building.

"My building generates about 75% of the energy we consume, from solar panels on the roof."

"We know this building is going to save us even more money in the future. We used excellent materials and the heating system is extremely efficient.


In terms of energy consumption, we're using far less than we'd been in the old building that was actually smaller. We have a very environmentally sustainable building.”

COST SAVINGS IS NOT THE ONLY BENEFIT OF GREEN BUILDING

A green building is also a healthy building for you, your staff, and your customers.

Our focus on sustainable design means that you will have a healthier building with better air quality and comfort. Your building will support the long-term health and well-being of the people who occupy your space.

A comfortable workplace will increase the productivity of your staff and will make your customers happier and more engaged. They won’t feel too hot or too cold. They won’t feel stressed by noise or poor lighting. They won’t suffer the ill effects of poor ventilation or the off-gassing of toxic building materials.

They will have plenty of daylight. They will have clean, healthy, fresh air. They will have practical use of surface spaces, making it easier for them to conduct their business.

The details may seem mundane, but we honestly believe those details add up to nothing less than an elevation of the human spirit.

Maurey Levitz - Client

"You could try to save money and get an engineer to stamp a plan for you, but if you miss something that an architect would have taken into account, the money you saved by being cheap could end up costing you a lot more.

 

An engineer will make sure that the building doesn't fall down, but an engineer won't make sure that you angled something the right way so that you would see the view. You thought:  'I saved $12,000 by having an engineer instead of an architect,' but an architect can give you the idea you didn't have or catch the mistake that you didn't realize."

I had initially picked another site across the street for this building. I like the idea of a high perch, so I picked a space that was up a little bit higher [in elevation].

Rick pointed out, that’s a nice site, but it's going to cost you more in site prep to blast out stone that's in there, and that was not in the budget.

Rick's advice on site selection saved me a tremendous amount of money, probably over $200,000.”
