Interiors
Can you imagine your house or office with white walls, beige floors, and standard fluorescent lighting? This is all you would be left with without interior design. We believe the interior of a space is just as important, if not more important, than the exterior of the building. After all, where do we really spend our time?
From its inception, Newman Architecture has always had a full-time, in-house, interior design staff. Our interiors staff contributes to all of our projects. From new construction and renovations to office finish-outs and furniture procurement, our staff brings functionality, vibrancy, and life to each space. We sincerely believe that the architecture and “feeling” of your facility should not end when you walk through the front door.
We’ll make sure your “identity” is reflected in your space. If you have multiple facilities, we can help capture and express that identity in all of your locations.
Remember, having a great interior doesn’t have to cost a lot of money! Let us show you what we can create with standard materials and finishes. We think you’ll be impressed.
