Shaw Create Center
August 21, 2025
The new 67,000 SF Shaw Industries “Create Center” is adjacent to their manufacturing plant and houses the corporation’s marketing, design and innovation associates. The Create Center utilizes an open work space with no ceilings.
AHA provided MEP/FP Design, Technology Design, along with LEED Energy Modeling and MEP Documentation services. Our work allowed for the creation of a “smooth” distribution of ductwork, piping, and conduit. The design included roof top units with variable air volume distribution and LED lighting. These high efficiency systems contributed to the 20.7% reduction in energy usage as confirmed by our energy model.
