Smart business interiors can support a multitude of activities and uses across San Diego’s energetic business landscape. Our expert team of designers knows how to optimize any space. We work directly with you to create dynamic workspaces that change as technology advances, your company grows, and your business culture develops.
bkm designers seek to utilize real estate for maximum productivity and increase work efficiency—all while crafting a beautiful environment that fosters collaborative inspiration.
Many of our designers have more than 20 years of experience in the industry, working with San Diego’s largest companies.
Our team believes in partnership and customer service; we know how to optimize top-quality Steelcase furniture and amenities to support you in your mission. Even more importantly, we know how to design a workplace that helps your employees to connect, learn, and grow.
The bkm team utilizes live design; let us walk you through your space using our 2D/3D CET Designer software platform. The virtual mockup we can create includes design features, specs, renderings, animations, and installation plans—all in one place! Customer feedback integration can take place entirely remotely if needed. We know some companies are currently getting back into the office and need full safety measures implemented, while others seek operational transformations to support remote work.
Know-how and experience establish the foundation of every project we take on here at bkm OfficeWorks. It includes constant training and updating, in-depth knowledge of our furniture manufacturer’s product lines, and recognition of the client’s unique needs. This makes it possible to meet and exceed function and aesthetic expectations with the help of our project management leaders.

Smart Tools
SmartTools by CET Designer
We have mastered the complexity of specifying office furniture with our proprietary software SmartTools. SmartTools is powered by CET Designer, Configura’s software for designing and specifying office furniture and interiors. It easily handles the specification of furniture, generation of 3D renderings, and stunning virtual tours of your office environment. This tool creates complete installation packages, including 2D and 3D drawings, tagging information, elevations, and everything needed for installers to quickly and efficiently do their work. It is compatible with other industry programs like AutoCAD and/or Revit xref.
Virtual Reality Experience
High-Resolution, Superior Image Accuracy, and Detailed Renderings
Dazzling rendering technology is now available for you to view your office space. This incredible animation tool uses 360° Panoramic Technology, allowing you to view 3D photo-realistic renderings of your space from a handheld smart device. By lifting, lowering, and turning, the user sees everything from the furniture to the floor/ceiling.
3D Flythrough Animation
See What Your Space Can Do
Once design and furniture specifications are developed, we can render a fly-through of your space within hours. See your furniture, lighting, tech, finishes, paint, and flooring on display before placing a single order.
