It is scalable and can be utilized with any size space in a wide variety of industries (golf, restaurant, hotel, spa, recreational clubs and more).
Superior views, balanced site lines, privacy, energy, operational efficiency with optimal staffing, exceptional luxury and increased profits are central to Tom Hoch’s delivery of a signature, custom interior space that is the lifestyle centerpiece of clubs and communities. These inviting, comfortable and stunning gathering places are powerful marketing tools for owners, developers, membership directors and real-estate agents. Styles range from classic and neo-classic to contemporary and progressive.
Contracted design work is completed onsite in Tom Hoch’s 30,000 square-foot studio, a unique position in the category that leads to increased efficiencies and overall quality. An “American Craftsman” operation, projects are designed and built by highly skilled artisans, carpenters and designers, and installed by an in-house team with minimal outsourcing. Tom Hoch employs “green building” techniques and practices to deliver spaces and products which are environmentally sensitive.
