A new term for a not-so-new solution, industrialized construction is all around us. It's in our workspaces, schools, healthcare facilities, government buildings, etc. - all around the world, with demand only getting stronger due in large part to its flexibility, speed to market, and cost stability (and transparency). So... what is it?

A must-visit spot in Columbus, Ohio is the Japan Marketplace, home to six unique Japanese shops: Akai Hana, Belle's Bread, J•Avenue, Tensuke Express, Tensuke Market, and Sushi Ten. There is an abundance of Japanese cuisine and products available which allows for a great introduction to traditions and a celebration of culture - truly an immersive experience!

Situated in The Ohio State University's South Campus Gateway district, the first ever brick-and-mortar Old Spice location has just opened its doors to the public. 

DIRTT interior construction and integrated tech in the new City Hall for the city of Dublin, OH

Designed by miller/watson architects, we were proud to assist with our furniture, flooring, branding, and interior construction teams to help create this beautiful space. This latest collaboration of this can be found in one of the most iconic buildings at The Ohio State University!

The options and opportunities with DIRTT interior construction are about as limitless as your imagination, and when the City of Dublin needed to build out and create their new City Hall, DIRTT was the perfect solution that gave them the integrated technology and custom look they needed!

More than likely, you're going to have to make some changes to your workplace in order to safely return to the office. Frequent cleaning and disinfecting services, new safety signage and guidelines, and even rearrangement of your space to give 6-foot distances between your workers - they're all ways we're helping our clients get back to the workplace, but what will your unique space look like? How will you make it work in a way that looks great, works well, and doesn't break the bank?

Whether you’re planning your return to the office soon or are already there, the workspace lives on with new changes to keep us safe! Safety signage tells us where to go and how to use our new spaces, and reconfiguring furniture and areas helps us keep 6-foot distances, but what about larger changes? In these rapidly changing times, spending the time and money to construct permanent walls and other fixtures turns into an expensive decision that will likely have to change again as time goes on, so what can you do that will help your space (and team) both now and in the future?

COVID-19 has turned the traditional workplace on its head. As organizations around the world return to work, they’re seeing and planning changes for nearly every area of their space; from desk and workstation reconfigurations to common rooms, restrooms, and more, organizations are finding new ways to keep employees healthy, safe, and at least six feet apart from each other throughout the day.

“Form (ever) follows function” – it’s the mantra that pioneered and championed much of 20^th-century architecture and design language, and it means that the design of a building will be reflective of its purpose or function. Focus on the function of the building, and let the design be determined to fit.
