If you’re down here as well please drive by our Jekyll Island Public Safety Building under construction…right near the putt putt & Redbug pizza. It will be the home for Georgia State Patrol and the JIA Fire Department. It should be completed by the end of the summer.

Exciting progress to share on our new state-of-the-art medical office building!   The first image shows the architectural rendering with abundant glass, clean lines, and contemporary finishes. We are thrilled with how the second image of the finished construction captures our team's flawless execution in bringing that compelling vision to reality - from the striking glass frontage and modern facade, to the spacious, light-filled layout primed to provide an outstanding environment for delivering quality patient care.   Our team's meticulous attention to detail ensured the building stayed true to that original design intent, creating a beautiful yet functional space with collaborative areas and ample natural light to benefit staff and patients. This is the third completed new medical office building for this client with two more to come. #healthcaredesign #betterbydesign #renderingmagic
