The decision to build a new office or commercial building is the first of many decisions you will be making. Choosing ADI as your design partner is the one decision that can simplify all the rest.

Sometimes the choices can seem overwhelming, but you can depend on ADI to guide you through this exciting process. In cooperation with many major manufacturers we have samples available in our offices of the products which will become a part of your new building. You can see and feel the actual colors and materials. ADI can also refer you to manufacturer’s showrooms where you will work with their trained professionals.

There are some choices you can start to consider as soon as you make the decision to build. The following is a list of items to discuss. The experienced staff of ADI has the product knowledge to explain the benefits and drawbacks of each of these choices.

• Building Site - A lot in a planned commercial development or a lot of your own.
• Number of Rooms - Consider present and future space needs and room utilization.
• Profile of Building - Single story, multi-level, basement, walk-out lower level.
• Style of Building - Traditional, contemporary, transitional (an updated traditional), classic interpretation.
• Exterior Materials - Brick, stone, shake shingles, wood siding, vinyl or cement siding.
• Interior Materials -
  • Flooring - Carpet, wood, ceramic tile, marble, stone, vinyl.
  • Walls - Wood paneling, paint, painted faux finishes, murals, wallpaper.

At this point in the design process you’re not making final choices, but you can begin to clarify your general preferences by looking through magazines and noting the choices made in buildings you visit. This will give you and ADI a starting point in developing your dream design.
