Office Design & Build Out Costs

How much your office design and build out is going to cost will greatly depend on the type of building you choose. It also depends on the scope of the project and details such as the number of offices and conference rooms, how many people will be occupying the area, whether you want glazed or solid partitions and the finishing decor. Depending on whether you intend to go open plan or cellular, it may involve knocking down (or building) of walls.
New flooring, lighting and air-conditioning may also be required depending on the state of the space when you take on the lease. You will also need to take into account any office furniture that may need purchasing to replace broken items, as well as to ensure your office furniture complements your new office design.
To help you get a better idea how much your office design is going to cost, it's a good idea to ask your Office Designer to accompany you when touring potential office space. They will be able to give you an outline budget for each building and explain to you the scope of the work of that may need to be carried out.
