Design 3,104-SF Retail Building

About the project

I have a clean site waiting for a 3,104-square-foot, single-storey mercantile (Retail Group M) building and I’m ready to move from concept to permit. The end use is a flexible retail store, so the interior must be laid out with open sales space, storage, an ADA-compliant restroom, and back-of-house zones that can adapt to a variety of tenants. Exterior character and finishes are still open for discussion; bring your own design language as long as it balances curb appeal with cost-effective construction. Scope of work • Schematic design: code review, dimensional floor plan, two exterior massing options • Design development: refined plan, four exterior elevations, roof plan, basic structural grid, outline MEP coordination • Permit/construction set: fully detailed, IBC-compliant drawings issued in both PDF and native Revit or AutoCAD formats Acceptance criteria • Drawings meet current local amendments to IBC and accessibility codes • 3D model (Revit 2022 + preferred) or layered DWG files delivered with all X-refs bound • Final set ready for direct submission to the building department and for GC pricing I will provide the site survey, zoning sheet, and any municipal checklists on award. Let me know your proposed timeline, your preferred platform (Revit, AutoCAD, or ArchiCAD), and examples of past retail work of similar scale so we can get started right away.
