Office Space Planning, Done to Scale

A working floor plan turns square footage into workstations, offices, meeting rooms, and circulation that fit your building, your headcount, and your budget. We plan spaces for projects across the country, then carry the plan through to installed furniture.

What It Is

The drawing everything else depends on.

Space planning is laying out a floor to scale: verified dimensions, real furniture footprints, door swings, clearances, and circulation. A good plan tells you how many people fit, which rooms are possible, and what the furniture package will roughly cost, before you commit to any of it.

Buildings are stubbornly specific. Columns, window mullions, HVAC, power locations, and egress all constrain the plan, and your team's actual work patterns should drive it. We field-verify the space, plan around reality, and price the plan we draw.

Where It Works

When a plan pays for itself.

New Offices & Relocations

Know what fits, and what it costs, before the lease is signed or the movers are booked.

Renovations & Refreshes

Rework an existing floor with a plan that sequences around occupied space.

Densification & Growth

Add headcount to the floor you have without wrecking how it works.

Open Plan Corrections

Rebalance a layout with too few rooms and too much noise.

Department Moves & Consolidations

Restack teams logically instead of by whoever complained last.

Furniture Replacement Projects

New furniture on an old layout wastes the spend. Plan first, then buy.

Deliverables

What we plan and deliver.

Deliverables scale from a single-floor layout to a full multi-scenario planning package, scoped to the decision you're making.

Furniture Floor Plans

To-scale layouts with real product footprints, clearances, and circulation.

Test Fits & Options

Two or three layout scenarios, so decisions get made against alternatives, not guesses.

Room Counts & Space Programs

Offices, workstations, meeting rooms, and storage tallied against your requirements.

3D Views & Renderings

Visualizations for the layouts stakeholders need to see to believe.

Power & Data Overlay

Furniture power requirements mapped for your electrician before rough-in.

Budget Alignment

The plan priced as a furniture package, so the drawing and the number travel together.

Why This Is Quoted

No two projects price the same.

Planning is scoped by the floor and the decision in front of you. These variables set the effort.

01
Square footage & floorsArea and floor count set the base planning effort.
02
Existing documentationAccurate as-builts speed planning. Missing plans mean we measure.
03
Scenario countEach additional layout option adds planning and drawing time.
04
Headcount & program complexityMore departments, room types, and special spaces mean more coordination.
05
Rendering needs3D visualization is scoped separately from 2D planning.
06
Code & egress complexityOccupancy and egress awareness shapes which layouts are viable.
07
Reuse of existing furniturePlanning around inventory you're keeping adds measurement work.
08
TimelineLease and construction deadlines compress or phase the planning work.
How We Work

From first conversation to final walkthrough.

One team owns the project end to end. A single point of contact from consultation through punch list.

01

Consultation

We define the goal: headcount, rooms, budget range, and any existing plans.

02

Site Review & Field Measure

We verify dimensions, columns, power, and conditions as they actually are.

03

Design & Specification

We draw layout options with real furniture footprints and review them with your team.

04

Quote & Approval

You approve a final plan priced as a furniture package with lead times stated plainly.

05

Delivery & Installation

The same plan drives ordering, delivery, and installation. No handoff, no translation loss.

Worth Thinking Through

What separates plans that work from plans that look nice.

Verified dimensions or nothing

Plans drawn on old as-builts fail at installation. We measure the space that exists, including the column that isn't on anyone's drawing.

Circulation is a feature

Aisle widths, door swings, and clearances decide whether a dense plan is efficient or miserable. We plan to real clearance standards, not maximum cram.

Plan power with the furniture

Workstation power has to land where the furniture needs it. Our plans include the power overlay so your electrician roughs in once.

Design for the next reshuffle

Layouts built on standard footprints reconfigure cheaply later. One-off arrangements are custom forever, and we'll tell you when you're creating one.

How We Plan

Our planning practice is grounded in current workplace standards and the planning tools of leading contract furniture manufacturers, applied by the same team that stands in the finished space at punch list.

Questions We Hear

Space Planning FAQ

How much does space planning cost?+
Scope is set by area, scenario count, and deliverables, and planning fees are commonly credited against the furniture project that follows. We'll quote the scope after seeing the space or the plans.
How long does planning take?+
Simple single-floor layouts turn around quickly. Multi-scenario or multi-floor programs take longer. Deadlines drive the schedule, and we say up front what's achievable.
Can you plan around furniture we're keeping?+
Yes. We inventory and measure existing product, plan reuse honestly, and show where keeping something costs more than replacing it.
Do you check code and egress?+
We plan with occupancy, egress paths, and ADA clearances in view, and coordinate with your architect or code official where formal review is required. We'll flag anything that needs their stamp.
What do you need from us to start?+
Any existing floor plans, target headcount and room needs, and access to measure. From there we handle the drawing.
Do we get the plan files?+
Yes. Approved plans are yours, delivered in formats your architect, IT, and facilities teams can use.
