Architecture Firm Expands Its Services
In a move to diversify, Clearwater based architectural firm, Design Styles, Inc. has announced that it is continuing to grow its services into the commercial arena.
“We will continue to develop the residential architectural designs that our firm is already so well known for” said Peter Fertig, AAIA, partner of Design Styles, “we have diversified our commercial architectural services to better serve the growing needs of our clients.”
The firm is already in the process of designing its largest commercial project yet - $5 million corporate headquarters for the nation’s fastest-growing direct mail postcard marketing company, PostcardMania. The project consists of a 22,800 sq. ft. office for 200 employees above a two story parking garage. The exterior of the building will be an urban industrial design intended to emulate a New York style warehouse circa 1920. The interior office space has been designed as an open, colorful and high energy avant-garde world with cost efficient materials such as exposed block walls, exposed mechanical systems and stained concrete floors.
“Our firm has grown significantly to where we’ve been able to expand our services” said Andy Dohmen, AIA, partner of Design Styles. “We are now able to offer our commercial clients the same quality and attention that we’ve been producing in our residential architectural designs. We pride ourselves in listening to our clients and designing creative solutions to suit their needs, ” Dohmen said.
Design Styles is presently in negotiations on other commercial projects in addition to the many single and multi-family projects they already have underway.
Dohmen and Fertig partnered in 1998 to form what is now known as Design Styles, Inc. Since its beginning, the firm has experienced tremendous growth in many areas including its size, services and client base.
