BUILDING MATCHMAKER

Before you commit to a lease, I help you confirm the space truly fits your business. I review layout potential, code considerations, and growth goals so you can choose a property with confidence instead of guesswork.

FEASABILITY
STUDY

Found a building you love but unsure if it works? I assess zoning, codes, and renovation realities to give you clear answers before you invest. You’ll know whether to move forward, renegotiate, or pivot.

CONCEPT
DESIGN

This is where your vision takes shape. I translate your ideas into thoughtful layouts and visuals aligned with your brand and operations. You’ll clearly see how your space will function and feel before construction begins.

PERMIT DOCUMENTS

I prepare permit-ready drawings that guide your project from approval through construction. During the build, I can stay involved to review progress and answer questions. The goal is ensuring the final result reflects the design you defined.

CONSULTATION

Sometimes you just need focused guidance. I provide practical insight on layout, zoning, code, or design decisions tailored to your immediate questions. You’ll leave with clear direction and confidence in your next step.

HI THERE, I'M TIERSA

I founded Brick and Mortar Design Studio to preserve existing buildings and transform  them into memorable experiences for customers and staff alike. At BAM, we believe that well-designed commercial spaces can lift up communities by creating a sense of place and boosting the local economy.

 

I work with small business owners (just like you) to create physical spaces that share your unique story and build brand enthusiasts. My designs are warm, inviting, and functional, and they always keep the customer experience in mind.

KIND WORDS FROM ONE-OF-A-KIND CLIENTS

"...Tiersa was very knowledgeable, personable, and great to work with. Taking the time to learn about the variety of factors that influence the customer experience of a business was well worth it. It has helped us immensely in the planning process and saved us from pitfalls that could have been very costly to redo in the future."
