Site in the Spotlight

Francesca's Collections Corporate Office
Francesca’s Collections corporate office was completed October 2012 in Houston.  The goal was to transform a 220K-sq-ft warehouse into office space to house the Francesca’s corporate headquarters.  The J&S project team delivered an outstanding, modern 100K-sq-ft office space that genuinely represented our client’s upscale and classy style. 

The plans called for a 90-day substantial completion, a diamond-polished stained floor and did not initially include any finishes for the project.  The J&S project team, architect and owner met on a weekly basis to review any design issues and to select all the finishes as the project progressed, which was a big challenge. 

As deliberation for the finishes were made throughout the project and on the field, our team rose to the occasion, and overcame design obstacles and more than 40 change orders due to the decision-making process for the finishes. A project of this complexity and size is challenging in itself, not considering the time constraint, but was substantially executed within the 90 days. 

The office included an open floor plan with state-of-the-art features from the private offices to conference room, to the lavish restrooms and employee break room.  A unique touch that added even more flavor was the clean, hard-wearing and low-maintenance diamond polished and stained concrete floor. 

Congratulations on delivering yet another J&S quality product; a true display of how our project team shines through their hard work.
