Core & Shell Core & Shell

A blank canvas holds limitless possibilities. For commercial property owners, our Core & Shell construction design provides just that – a blank canvas for future tenants to customize the space. We engineer the base build – the inside core and outer building envelope (shell) – and then work with building owners to understand tenant requirements, construction timelines, and budget. Every business faces unique challenges, changing trends, and demands in productivity. That’s why we design with both the tenant and owner in mind to engineer buildings that are ready for today and tomorrow.

Business Sector

We work closely with building owners to understand tenant and lease requirements. From new construction to renovation to adaptive re-use, we design flexible spaces to meet the needs of both the building owner and the end-user who will live, shop, or work in them.
