Why the Triad is an Ideal Spot for Corporate Relocation

The Triad is North Carolina’s Beating Hear for Corporate Relocation

Cradled between the Appalachian Mountains and the Atlantic Ocean, the Triad brims with outdoor parks, community spaces and nightlife recreation. It’s also home to vibrant mixed-use complexes for work and play. 

In short, the Triad offers something for everyone, including commercial real estate (CRE) developers planning for a corporation’s strategic relocation and meeting its employee retention and workplace design goals. 

The Benefits of Boutique Workplace Design in the Triad

Among boutique workplace solutions, merging modern aesthetics with functionality is the latest trend embraced by CRE developers and the Triad is an ideal location for due to its: 

Unique geography

Located in the center of North Carolina, the Triad makes it easy for corporate relocators to find potential land or space to lease. This not only inspires unique design resources, but it also positions the relocating company near thriving metropolitan areas such as Winston-Salem, Greensboro and High Point. This immerses the corporation in nearby commercial hubs, cultivating networks and operational growth in the area’s numerous industrial parks. 

Positive work-life balance

The Triad offers both residents and commuters boundless activities and weekend recreation. This stimulates a vibrant work-life balance and increases employee satisfaction, a crucial component of workplace relocation and design. Not only does this element benefit employees, but it can also contribute to the company’s growth through the resulting workplace motivation. 

Dynamic design

From an architectural perspective, boutique workplace design reimagines the office setting, promoted by the Triad’s adaptive and mixed-use real estate opportunities. Conventional design is replaced by dynamic lighting, open spaces and collaborative amenities that stimulate team productivity. For example, STITCH Design Shop was part of Zeihl Abegg’s commercial property project in Greensboro, NC. Here, the commercial showroom and lobby are designed with tangible client benefits. This includes glass frontage that welcomes natural light, wide spaces for consistent ventilation and contemporary abstract lighting. 

“Not only does this element benefit employees, but it can also contribute to the company’s growth through the resulting workplace motivation.”

Triad Project Partners

Not only is the Triad a commercial and geographical haven, but it is also home turf for STITCH Design Shop. The headquarters office is located in downtown Winston-Salem, with a second office in Greensboro, where the firm partners with general contractors, non-profits and pillars of the construction community. In the Triad, CRE developer goals are supported with:

Adaptive reuse opportunities

Winston-Salem, Greensboro and High Point were founded in the 1800s, making the Triad home to a wealth of historic buildings and structures. Adaptive reuse opportunities abound and particularly attract CRE developers because they honor a community’s heritage while modernizing these unique spaces for today’s workplace needs. 

Economic project partnerships

Over the past ten years, STITCH Design Shop has held a leadership position in Winston-Salem’s business district, staying linked with key developers, city officials and industry experts. These partnerships optimize design projects with timely, order-of-magnitude pricing that values economic considerations and goals. This strategic Triad network identifies STITCH Design Shop as reputable CRE architects, designers and long-term project managers. 

Stimulating Business Sustainability 

The Triad’s relationship with its surrounding environments stimulates sustainable elements in adaptive reuse and new construction CRE projects in ways that value: 

Sustainable property management

The Triad’s parks and recreation facilities foster sustainability and environmental stewardship. Tanglewood Park Golf Clubhouse (Clemmons, NC) is set to open in 2025 and features water-saving landscape strategies and energy-efficient facades. Its rich geography allows CRE developers to seamlessly prioritize eco-responsibility in location, materials and design. 

Landscape integration and investments

At Jamison Park, the land informs architectural design to boost its relationship with nature. Located on a historical agricultural plot in Forsyth County, Jamison Park cultivates community through its eco-friendly relationship with the surrounding bike trails, outdoor classroom and trimmed landscape.

CRE developers work with STITCH Design Shop to advance their goals through the Triad’s unique identity, as our design services, project management and market knowledge allow clients to effectively communicate their unique stories.
