Story

With extremely short notice and no margin for error, Cox Medendorp Olson quickly assisted Spectrum Health by turning a vacant “white box” into a shining jewel in their new state-of-the-art, LEED-certified healthcare facility.  Given only 9 weeks for design, meetings, client approvals, construction documents and construction completion before the grand opening, CMO skillfully coordinated with construction managers, subcontractors, suppliers, engineering consultants, fixturing manufacturers, and numerous departments with Spectrum requiring approval of the design.  CMO’s ability to listen to our client’s needs, along with our retail expertise, allowed us to get the “right” design approved almost immediately.  A fast turnaround of very detailed construction documents resulted in minimal questions, firm bids from the contractors, earlier construction start, and equipment to be ordered to meet the deadline.  The design gives this shop a distinct and intimate feel, while fitting into the overall context and finishes of the entire facility.
