SERVICES - DEVELOPERS and BUILDING OWNERS
A beneficial relationship thrives between Gio Tan Design and developers and building owners. Gio Tan Design recognizes the specific requirements of building owners and developers who are looking to either build new buildings or renovate existing buildings. We are able to help you meet several of these requirements through our comprehensive services listed below:
Building Floor Plates Studies And Space Efficiency Analysis
Numerous prominent Building Owners, Developers and Architects have retained Gio Tan Design's services to assist them in building efficient and easy to lease buildings. Having been involved with the majority of new major office buildings within the GTA, Gio Tan Design has become the dominant consultant in this field of expertise.
We work very closely with the architects to review proposed building floor plates and prepare studies and space efficiency analysis before the building's final floor plate has been established. This consists of a detailed examination and analysis of the building floor plates, combined with BOMA area calculations and rentable efficiency analysis. By suggesting improvements while the building is still in the planning stages, we can help make your new building more efficient, easy to split for Multi-Tenant use, and easy to lease.
