Test Fits &
Tenant Improvements (T.I.)

We provide Test-Fits and Tenant Improvement Packages for various project types, including Office, Retail, and Warehouse, across Texas.

Test-Fits are often available for free from Motif.

Early Cost

Engaging an architect early in the process can provide you with preliminary cost estimates and potential tenant allowances. This insight helps you understand the financial feasibility of the project, ensuring that you allocate your budget more effectively and avoid unexpected expenses later on.

Planning

An architect’s expertise in site planning ensures that the land or space is utilized optimally. By analyzing the topography, zoning regulations, and environmental factors, they can identify potential challenges and opportunities. This proactive approach helps in making informed decisions about land acquisition or leasing.

Early Design

Early involvement of an architect facilitates initial design coordination. They can work with stakeholders, such as engineers and planners, to align the project goals and requirements from the start. This collaborative effort streamlines the design process, minimizing revisions and ensuring that the project progresses smoothly and efficiently.

Tenant Improvement Packages - Made Easy.

Personalized

Small architecture firms can offer a level of personalized attention that larger firms may struggle to provide. By working closely with developers and brokers, we ensure that every detail of the project aligns with the client's vision and requirements. This close collaboration fosters a stronger working relationship and a tailored approach to each project.

Synergy

At Motif, communication lines are often more direct and efficient. Our team works closely together, creating synergy in the design packages. This seamless communication helps to quickly address any issues or changes, leading to a more cohesive and well-coordinated project outcome.

Flexibility

Small firms are typically more agile and can adapt quickly to changes or new information. This flexibility allows us to be more responsive to client needs and any unforeseen challenges. Our ability to pivot and adjust ensures that the project remains on track and meets the desired goals effectively.
