Shell and core

A building that has a "shell and core" will have water and power, but won't necessarily have fixtures such as suspended ceilings, cabling or rest room facilities. As the name suggests, the building really is just a shell.

Category A fit out

This refers to a fit out where fixtures and fittings such as restrooms, suspended ceilings, cabling, partitions, lighting and similar are incorporated into the building. Frequently, this work will have been completed before the user rents the office, often by the landlord or developer.

Category B fit out

Obviously, each office has its own individual character and requirements. Category B office fit out Lismore businesses need includes items such as furniture, window dressings, carpeting, accessories, moveable storage, IT and other touches that reflect your brand and aspirations.
