THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT SAN ANTONIO NORTH PASEO ADMINISTRATIVE BUILDING san antonio, texas FF&E Specification/Installation/Move Coordination Installation Date: October 2011 FF&E Cost: $1,827,348 Project Square Footage: Approx. 74,000 SF
The North Paseo Building consists of two office buildings totaling 74,000 SF designed to accommodate eleven different departments ranging from Vice Provost of Accountability and Institutional Effectiveness to Army and Air Force ROTC. Primarily consisting of faculty and staff offices, the facility also contains classrooms, training areas and ancillary support spaces. As part of our basic services we completed a comprehensive inventory of existing departmental assets to evaluate for potential re-use and determined that the furniture did not meet the University’s requirements for a new facility. A detailed recommendation package was prepared describing the findings which assisted in the University’s decision to proceed with new furnishings for the project. Our team was able to present a comprehensive design solution that addressed the needs of all the varied departmental groups in a holistic manner, and also ignited a spark of excitement in the group that has allowed us to build positive relationships with the end users.

TEXAN EYE CARE CENTER austin, texas AGC Design Award Winning Ophthalmology Offices Completion Date: March 2007 Overall Project Cost: $ 2.5 Million Project Square Footage: Approx. 19,000 SF
Texan Eye purchased the State Cosmetology Licensing Department's building with the intent of renovating the building to house their main ophthalmology practice. The renovation included the complete renovation of the first floor, re-creating the entry procession and faรงade and developing architectural elements to identify the building. The first floor was designed to increase the flow and productivity of the doctors. E+MID provided full service interior design services as well as the FF&E package. The lobby materials keep the warmth of the wood and earth tones as you enter and transitions thru a cut stone wall and curved wenge wood wall. The waiting rooms were to be configured in seating groups in lieu of 'bus station' type seating. The small groups of seating allow for an intimate setting that is relaxing and comforting. While the renovation was not required to be LEED certified, many elements of sustainable design were incorporated into the building. This new facility will support the practice well into the future with expansion on the second floor.

DELL CHILDREN’S MEDICAL CENTER austin, texas Opened in 2007 as the first LEED Platinum Hospital in the United States to receive recognition from USGBC. Completion Date: June 2007 Overall Project Cost: $ 137 Million FF&E Cost: $ Approx. $ 3.4 Million Project Square Footage: Approx. 470,000 SF
This nationally recognized facility consists of areas dedicated to patient care, public spaces such as café and lounge spaces, staff and administrative areas, laboratory and research spaces, inpatient and outpatient pharmacies and much more. As both an employee of the Seton Network Facilities Department and as a consultant, Harmony Edwards was the Owners’ representative for all of the facilities furniture requirements. By taking a cumbersome and lengthy specification and tasking bidders to propose ways to fulfill the entire specification with products that they represent or could outsource, she was able to streamline the procurement and installation process as well as shave nearly 1 million dollars from the furniture budget by maximizing product from each vendor. This process also allowed the facility to maintain a single point of contact throughout the multi-phased furniture installation process in which there was no room for error or delay.
Harmony was also responsible for coordinating the creation and installation of large scale custom artwork pieces for the facility and worked closely with local, national and international artists to provide one of a kind works for the hospitals public collection. Architect: Karlsberger
