This confidential national homebuilding company partnered with IA Interior Architects Miami and Empire Office to design their new headquarters in Miami, FL. Empire procured, delivered and installed the ancillary furniture for the high-end workplace, which encompasses over 125,000 SF and spans five floors.

Furniture from manufacturers such as Andreu World, Bernhardt, Davis, and Steelcase were chosen to complement the upscale materials utilized in the build and achieve the desired luxe aesthetic. Numerous conference rooms, collaborative areas, and lounges are located throughout each floor to promote connectivity amongst employees. Office amenities include executive dining spaces and a full cafe that are brought to life with biophilic details. Additionally, Empire engaged custom millwork and furniture provider, Fabricate to design u-shaped sofas for the training and synergetic areas to enhance collaboration.

Related Group, one of South Florida’s largest Real Estate Developers, moved its headquarters from downtown Miami to Coconut Grove in 2021.
