Flexible by design
An innovation hub may include open work areas, meeting pods, event space, maker shops, phone booths and cafes. Tenants come and go, so walls, power and data need to be easy to adapt.
We design for change with demountable partitions, floor boxes, ceiling-mounted power and generous cable pathways. This approach keeps future costs down.
Our trades under one roof
Our electrical crew installs lighting, power and data for open areas and private rooms. Our mechanical crew handles HVAC zoning, which is important when spaces switch between quiet work and busy events. Our low voltage team installs Wi-Fi infrastructure, access control and AV.
Interior systems, carpentry and painting crews finish the space, building the feature walls, kitchens and shared counters that give a hub its character.
- Demountable walls
- Event-ready AV
- Shared kitchens and cafes
- Secure tenant access
Maker and lab areas
Some hubs include workshops, prototyping labs or small production areas. These need stronger power, ventilation and floor finishes, and sometimes dust or fume extraction. We plan these zones early so they do not disturb quiet areas.
Budget and timing
Hubs often open in stages as demand grows. We can phase the build to match funding and tenant intake. Existing buildings, such as older warehouses, can give a hub character, but they bring structural and code questions we will assess up front.
A hub succeeds when its members feel at home. Small details, such as natural light, good coffee areas and comfortable acoustics, matter as much as the technology. Our carpenters and painters handle the custom touches in-house, and our project managers keep the work on budget so more of your funds go into the space that members see.
Funding for hubs often comes from several sources, each with its own reporting needs. Our project managers can break costs into clear stages and keep records that suit your funders. That transparency helps you plan phases, show progress and keep stakeholders confident as the building takes shape.
