3 Ways Design-Build Enhances the Construction Experience

How Ceiling Clouds Bring Style and Functionality to Modern Building Interiors
Elevate Your Space
A traditional drop tile or drywall ceiling can be an economical way to finish an open floor plan while absorbing noise effectively. However, these conventional ceilings often lack visual interest—especially in spaces where one area flows seamlessly into the next. For building owners and designers seeking a fresh alternative, ceiling clouds offer a modern approach that marries form, function, and aesthetics.
What Are Ceiling Clouds?
Ceiling clouds are panels suspended from the ceiling to create a dramatic visual element while serving many of the same purposes as traditional drop ceilings. Like drop tiles, ceiling clouds help absorb sound and conceal beams, wiring, and supports. The difference lies in their look: ceiling clouds come in various shapes, sizes, and materials—ranging from foam to drywall, wood, metal, and even fabric—giving architects and interior designers more creative freedom in shaping a space’s atmosphere.
Transforming Yesterday’s Office Storage Space

In the past, businesses relied on ample office storage to manage physical files, records, and supplies. Filing cabinet systems, archive rooms, and large storage areas were essential parts of office layouts.

Many offices now find that these once-vital spaces have become clunky, underutilized, or even unnecessary.
Wainscoting for Style, Durability and Function in Commercial Buildings
Building Owners have been using a form of wainscoting in their buildings since the 14th century according to howstuffworks.com.

Commercial wainscoting comes in many materials for different uses including laminate, metallic, tile, vinyl (VCW) , fiber reinforced, or polymer (FRP) material to name most options.

What Makes a Design-Builder a Dental Construction Expert?
I’d like to address a question that has been posed to me about what makes a contractor specialized in Dental Construction. We’ve claimed for a couple of decades now to be an expert at dental office construction, but what does that mean? There are many out there that think a building is a building, but most Dentists will recognize that a design-builder that’s versed in dental operations will make a big difference in the final building design, quality of construction and completion date.
