Complete Offices Designed, Built & Delivered 30% Faster
We bring the solutions and the architectural expertise – but it’s your vision we’re building, so we make it our mission to work closely with you every step of the way.
Before we start on the design process, we begin by getting to know you, your people and how your organization works, as part of our Workplace Analysis and Strategy services.
Workplace architectural services include planning, designing, engineering, and managing all technical requirements needed to build or renovate an office space. This covers space planning, 2-D and 3-D designs, MEP and structural drawings, cost certainty, permitting, building code compliance, and construction coordination. RI Workplace delivers this end-to-end as a unified team to ensure accuracy and consistency from concept through final approval.
A workplace architect designs office spaces that support business goals, employee needs, and regulatory requirements. They analyze how an organization operates and translate that into functional space plans, while ensuring every technical element – from engineering to code compliance – meets industry standards. Their work blends creativity with strategic planning to produce efficient, modern work environments.
Workplace architecture focuses specifically on office environments, blending design, engineering, and workplace strategy to optimize how people work. Unlike general architectural services, it involves studying collaboration patterns, workflows, and space utilization to improve productivity, culture, and efficiency. It also integrates specialized elements such as MEP planning, ergonomic layouts, hybrid-ready spaces, and brand-aligned design.
Yes, workplace architects manage the entire permitting and approval process. They prepare technical drawings, coordinate with engineers, submit permit applications, and ensure compliance with local building regulations. This reduces project delays and ensures a smooth path from design to construction.
Yes, workplace architects can create 3-D renderings and virtual reality walkthroughs to help clients visualize their updated workplace. These tools bring floor plans to life, allow teams to explore design options, and enable faster decision-making before construction begins. RI Workplace uses these technologies to showcase layouts, finishes, branding elements, and space flow.
We can create 2-D space plans, 3-D renderings and virtual reality walkthroughs to bring the potential of your new space to life. We scope out initial costs and timelines then take the plans through all the necessary technical architectural, building services and engineering requirement stages.
Among additional services we provide are structural and MEP drawings, value engineering, and construction management.
We bring our individual areas of expertise together as part of a wholly collaborative team – which creates a seamless project journey for all of our clients.
