Project Description
Location: Mooresville, NC
Size: 2,500 SF
3TEN Construction completed an interior tenant upfit of an existing 2,500 SF retail space for an American-owned, global hearing aid manufacturer. The space houses a hearing center clinic that provides testing services and hearing aid solutions for individuals with hearing impairments, as well as an adjoining retail area dedicated to a specialized brand of hearing protection and enhancement products featuring automatic suppression of noises over 85 dB.
With individual storefront entrances and branded reception lobbies, these adjoining clinics share common areas, including restrooms, a conference room, an employee break room, and a central lab and triage space. Each clinic offers a distinct ambiance and patient experience, reflecting its primary focus—either reparative or preventative care.
The hearing center emphasizes a welcoming, hospitality-inspired reception area. Its design evokes a restorative and uplifting atmosphere, with soft curves flowing throughout the space to subtly reference sound waves. Warm, rich neutral tones paired with wood accents create a calm and grounding environment. Additional program spaces include an audiometric testing suite, offices, and fitting rooms.
In contrast, the preventative clinic features an energetic and vibrant aesthetic, defined by bold colors, dynamic lines, and materials influenced by the automotive industry. This design is tailored to the brand’s target audience, including law enforcement personnel, hunters, industrial and construction workers, and motorsport professionals.
3TEN’s construction management and self-performing teams completed the installation of new walls, ceilings, flooring, lighting, HVAC, and sprinkler systems. 3TEN was able to expedite the project schedule by getting a head start on demolition and framing activities while working hand-in-hand with the design team and owner to finalize the finish selections.
