DEFINITION OF THE PROJECT
Project: Lawyers’ office building
Client: Rosa A. Fernandez
Rosa A. Fernandez, a client from Santiago de los Caballeros, wants to start her own lawyers buffet
and come to us with the ideal to construct an office building located in Los Jardines, Santiago.
The project has 400 square meters field to work. The client asked for a three floors
building, adapted to future changes and an ecological design. The project needs green areas to
enhance the visuals, a big lobby, four offices, conference room, and administration. The client has
20 million pesos, 20,000,000 $ R.D. , for the first investment of the project.
Already presented the needs and requirements of the project, such as comfort, interior and exterior
spaces, and others, we believe that IDC-homes can easily carry out this project, thanks to our
flexible design, but we feel in the need to subcontract the eco-technology. Finally, focused on the
economy, we can build this project as a simple building, but fully functional and aesthetic.

DESCRIBING THE PROJECT
Before you enter the building,
you will see a beautiful
landscaping work that contains a
big and colorful garden,
surrounding the whole building
with different kinds of flowers
and trees in every color and
sizes.

DESCRIBING THE PROJECT
Once you enter to the first
floor, you will contemplate
our big lobby that is open to
the views of the garden, so
you can enjoy the
landscaping work from the
outside and the inside.
The lobby has all the last details of the flooring
in a very exotic woodwork, and curtain walls to
close the area. Right in front of the
entrance, in the middle of the lobby, there is a
big electronic panel that gives you all the
information you need, and some details about
the building. Next to the panel, it’s the waiting
area and the secretary assistance.

any kind of activity that needs an open space. We will also decorate it with a small garden to
clear the views of the machines. We also designed a basement for parking area and warehouse.
