Commercial Architecture · Greater Houston · Across Texas
Built with purpose. Designed to last.
Office, retail, industrial, medical, hospitality, multifamily, and institutional. Architecture, MEP, and structural coordinated under one contract — so you hold one agreement, not four.

Sectors
Seven building types, one point of contact.
Office
Shell buildings and full interiors built around demising flexibility, so leasable area survives a change of tenant.
View sectorRetail
Standalone pads, strip centers, and in-line spaces coordinated against landlord criteria and franchise prototypes.
View sectorIndustrial
Warehouse, flex, and light manufacturing — clear heights, dock configuration, and fire protection resolved early.
View sectorMedical
Clinics and medical office buildings planned around infection control, med gas, and the review path your AHJ actually uses.
View sectorHospitality
Hotels, restaurants, and event space where guest experience and back-of-house efficiency have to coexist.
View sectorMultifamily
Garden, wrap, and mixed-use residential where unit mix and parking ratio drive the entire pro forma.
View sectorInstitutional
Schools, places of worship, and community buildings — built for durability, accessibility, and public review.

Services
One contract, not four.
Architecture, MEP, and structural coordinated under a single agreement. You sign once, and coordination is our problem rather than yours.
Full Architecture
Programming through construction administration. MEP and structural engaged and coordinated by Temelar, so you hold one contract instead of four.
Tenant Improvement
Build-outs and interior renovations, planned against landlord criteria and turned around on a leasing schedule.
Owner's Representative
Independent oversight of your design and construction team — bids, invoices, change orders, schedule, and closeout.
Feasibility & Due Diligence
Test fits, zoning and code review, and order-of-magnitude sizing before you commit to a site.
