Find the right workspace with confidence

office selection

Up-to-date knowledge of Sydney’s commercial real estate market is an important part of finding an appropriate commercial space for your business. Our appraisal team have the insight and experience to understand your individual fitout needs and spatial requirements.

Good design and spatial planning are essential parts of minimising office fitout costs not only for your current situation but also throughout the term of your lease. To help achieve this goal Apex Executive Interiors developed its own state of the art spatial planning software.

Our pre-lease Building Suitability Report (BSR) will help you avoid the pitfalls and hidden costs of fitting out an office in the wrong location before you sign a lease. The report includes assessing if the floorspace is the correct size, general building condition, lifts, air conditioning, electrical systems, security, building management, parking and much more.

Our most frequently asked property questions

What is Net Lettable Area or NLA?

Net lettable area or (NLA) is essentially the term given to the area of your office that you actually pay for which can include support columns and dividing common walls both of which are wasted usable office space. It’s important to work out the difference between the NLA and the actual ‘usable office space’.

Yes, we assist a lot of our clients on selecting the most suitable building for their office fitout. We provide a short list of buildings and offices that are best suited to your business requirements, now and into the future.

Generally speaking a standard office fitout should not be less than 10m² per person. We’ve developed a new concept called “Collaborative Fitout” that allows this figure to be reduced and still be ergonomically friendly. For more info check out our easy to use cost calculator

This is the provision in a commercial lease that stipulates how a property should be left at the end of the lease term. It can evolve taking the office back to a bare open plan floor. Demolishing the entire fitout can sometimes be negotiated as a payment instead of carrying out the works.

This is a very common question we get asked and unfortunately one design does not fit all. The design perimeters of an office fitout can only really be determined by having a meeting with our highly trained interior designers who take all of your business requirements into account. They will design and plan your fitout not only for your present needs, but also for your future needs.

Spatial planning is the art of getting the most out of your available office space, not just for your budget, but also for your staff’s well being and efficiency.
