10 reasons to use architects in a commercial or office reloaction
Many commercial tenants search for new office space with pre-determined concepts. Here are 10 reasons to break that mold by enlisting the services of a professional architect: 1. Architects can reduce your square footage requirements. Workplace configurations and build-out options need to be considered for any new headquarters. Architects know the limitations and opportunities for any office space you are considering. By making the most out of your office, and thus reducing square footage needs, they can save you money over the entire life of your lease. 2. Architects will consider the nature of your business. For example, legal firms require more perimeter offices (with a window!) to satisfy their partners and senior colleagues. If your company holds frequent meetings, then you may wish to arrange for more conference or huddle rooms. 3. Architects will evaluate your space needs over time. If you are a rapidly growing company, you may need additional support areas such as kitchen facilities, mail rooms, etc. If your firm is struggling, you may need structural alternatives to reduce your office space in a timely manner. 4. Architects can affect employee productivity. The size, adjacencies and locations of workstations, offices, huddle rooms and conference rooms can affect workflow as well as employee work habits and output. 5. Architects can evaluate the building you select. An office building may have structural limitations based on a number of factors. Architects can evaluate these elements, even when your prospective landlord may hesitate or be uninformed about these matters. 6. Architects know how to evaluate space-related statistics. Architects are conversant with terms used to measure square footage including building loss factors, rentable square feet, carpetable square feet, etc., terms likely to come up during negotiations and in the boilerplate of your lease. 7. Architects can suggest ways to build your I.T. infrastructure and ensure scalability. The lack of scalability, a key watchword for many industries, can limit your ability to add new technologies as they become available. Architects consider these factors in all their permutations, an especially intricate task when we do not know what the next new technology will be. 8. Architects can interface and supervise key staff during construction. Architects know how to interface with general contractors and related specialists to ensure your office space achieves its full potential. They can also work with structural design and HVAC engineers, furniture vendors and other essential suppliers. 9. Architects can evaluate a building's design elements and their effect on your customers. Does the building and/or your new office project a sense of stability, modernity, hi-end service, etc.? 10. Architects work closely with real estate brokers and legal representatives to ensure all your needs are met. Article provided by SDA Architecture, Architects in Manchester
Commercial Architects how to choose the right one.
A good real estate development starts with the right architect. An architect is concerned not only with the concept but also the planning as well as designing of a building or any real estate development. A degree in architecture equips one with the knowledge of the building and operational codes that are to be adhered for every architectural design. Architects specialize in different fields among architecture i.e., land, land development, buildings, office parks, residential, landscape and the like. This specialization is a result of the increasingly fragmented, demanding and concentrated world. Thus, it is difficult for a single architect to be aware of the know-how of each of these fields and to accommodate the distinct demands of different clients. An architect plays a very significant role in a project from its conception to its construction. The final physical form of a building or any real estate development is designed by an architect who obviously considers the desires and needs of the client. As such, it is important to choose an architect who is well qualified as well as experienced in the specialized field of your choice. An architect who has been in business for at least 5-10 years must have developed a strong foundation of relevant concepts. He/she must possess the skills, knowledge and experience needed for a decent and fascinating project. This indicates that it is essential to review an architect’s qualifications prior to selection; his/her degree, experience and license – all should be checked before one hands over the project. An important point to note is that he/she should be experienced for five plus years in the particular field of the development project and not just as a general architect. Having said the significance of educational qualifications, it is time to review an architect’s affiliations and accreditations. An achieved architect should also be affiliated with a reliable institution, for instance, the American Institute of Architects (AIA), Royal Architectural Institute of Canada, Royal Institute of British Architects and the like. Affiliation with such institutes demonstrates an architect’s credibility and popularity in the industry. An architect who is affiliated and accredited by similar professional architectural organizations has certainly passed their comprehensive requirements. This is a strong recognition and a proof of their achievement. However, mere affiliation is not the only consideration before choosing an architect. Other relevant factors and elements should also be considered so that the ultimate decision is made bearing all concerns in mind. A good architect is the key to any real estate development. Once a solid relationship and understanding has been established with the right architects(s), the entire process of idea generation, conceptualization through to final construction becomes simpler and satisfying. A good architect is aware of all reasonable specifications and is filled with ideas that form successful real estate development strategies. Thus, it is absolutely imperative to choose the right architect - one who is aware, experienced and reputable. Article provided by SDA Architecture, Architects in Manchester
