SHERMAN DESIGN GROUP, INC., (SDG) provides a complete range of facilities planning and commercial interior design services, and has done so since 1984.

Planning and organizing the built environment combines several disciplines of professional design services. Facilities planning and commercial, or corporate interior design are comprised of planning and managing construction, finish and furnishing documents and administration. We believe in performance based design, a process that augments the efficiency of an organization and its employees.

We Design from the Inside Out

Our excellent reputation has been hard earned through quality service to prominent corporations, businesses, developers and individuals throughout the Western United States. With more than 40 years of combined experience in commercial interior design and facilities planning, SDG personnel have a unique ability to accurately assess objective project requirements in a timely manner. Functional and aesthetic goals of a project are blended to create efficient and attractive environments that are completed on time and within budget. Each stage of the project is personally monitored by Rayne Sherman, the principal of the firm.

The success of our design methods lead to a high rate of repeat and referral business and the establishment of facility design relationships with prominent corporations, developers, brokers, businesses and individuals. SDG staff employ state‐of‐the‐art techniques and technology to design standard as well as advanced environments. The technology we utilize enables us to provide accurate specifications, budgets, construction and graphic details and area calculations.

Experience, energy and commitment make SDG an ideal choice for commercial design and facilities planning, whether the project is a single regional facility, campus environment or a multi‐story corporate headquarters.
