Announcements

ai Design Group Inc. today announced it has completed the interior design of Vision Loft Optometry at Concord Mills, a 4,500 square-foot optometry and eye care center located across from Concord Mills Mall.

aiDG Principal Kim Marks and Senior Designer Elizabeth Hamilton led the project with a goal of creating an upscale boutique feel and New York City-style loft appeal. The space includes a spa-like waiting area and dedicated kid’s waiting area, three pre-test rooms, five exam rooms, contact lens fitting area, optical technician’s lab and a frame showroom.

“We had some initial ideas, but the aiDG team's design and space plan showed us so many more possibilities,” said Dr. Bonnie Chen, owner and optometrist. "The round elements and the green colors used throughout really make the place stand out. We can’t wait to show it off to our patients at our grand opening.”

aiDG also created a central check-in area that allows visitors to circulate around the office and is also more manageable for a small staff. A fish tank as a design element in the waiting area is a focal point.

"We wanted patients and visitors to come in and quickly associate the design with an upscale boutique while also feeling comfortable and well cared for,” said Marks. "We think we accomplished that through color, finishes and overall space flow."
