Tenant Improvement & OSHPD-3

Corporate Board Room

Corporate Headquarters

We were very flattered when the St. Joseph Health System needed an Architect to design their corporate headquarters that they selected us from the dozens of architects they use. The Design and Construction Division along with the CEO and Board placed high expectations on us to keep the ambitious project on-budget and on-time.

The final scheme remodeled about 55% of the square footage, maintaining the existing waiting room, reception area, offices and lounge.

The project was designed to be executed in two phases, allowing the physcian […]
