Interior Design & Space Planning in SoMa

A well-designed office in SoMa isn't just about aesthetics — it affects how your team works, how clients perceive you, and whether the space actually functions for the way you operate. Codi manages the full interior design and space planning process — from initial concept through final installation — so your team gets a finished office without managing a single vendor.

Most Codi clients in SoMa bring us in during a new lease, an office expansion, or a restack. We scope the project, source and coordinate designers and installers, and manage building access — all through one point of contact.

Interior design and space planning is a managed service for 11 out of 31 offices Codi manages in SoMa — most engage Codi at lease signing or during a restack.

One of our SoMa clients — around 125 people software startup near Townsend St — brought Codi in to manage the full interior design and space planning project — concept through installation. “We needed a full space plan before signing the lease. Codi came in, scoped it, and managed the entire fit-out.”

What Interior Design & Space Planning Covers in SoMa

Codi manages the full scope of interior design and space planning for SoMa offices:

• Space planning and layout optimization — desk configurations, collaboration zones, and private office placement
• Interior design concept and material selection — finishes, color palettes, and furniture recommendations
• Vendor sourcing and coordination — designers, contractors, and installers vetted and managed by Codi
• Building permit coordination — drawings, approvals, and landlord sign-off all handled
• Furniture procurement and delivery logistics — freight scheduling and building access managed
• Installation management — end-to-end coordination from demolition through final punch list

Interior design projects in SoMa and Financial District offices require building permit coordination and freight access planning. Codi manages the full process from concept approval to final installation.

How Codi Manages Interior Design in SoMa

  1. Submit a request. Share your square footage, headcount, and any specific goals — whether it's a full redesign, a partial restack, or a new build-out.
  2. Codi scopes the project. We conduct a walkthrough of your SoMa office to assess the current layout, infrastructure, and building constraints.
  3. Design is developed and approved. Codi presents layout options and design concepts for your review. We iterate until you approve before any procurement begins.
  4. Building coordination is handled. Codi manages all permit submissions, landlord approvals, and building management coordination required for your project.
  5. Installation is executed. Vetted contractors and installers complete the work. Codi manages scheduling, quality checks, and punch list resolution.
