Southfield Chrysler-Jeep
Southfield, Michigan

Being a highly successful dealership and familiar 12 Mile/Telegraph landmark for many years, Southfield Chrysler-Jeep has undergone an “Extreme Makeover”.  In an effort to enhance and improve their facility for customer enjoyment and brand recognition, Dorchen/Martin Associates, Inc. was commissioned to upgrade customer accessibility and dramatically transform their present interior and outdoor display areas.  The resulting renovation design includes a new monumental entry feature, two outdoor covered display areas and a 21st century showroom that features a state-of-the-art furniture and brand display system by Knoll.

Sleek horizontal canopy bands, an impressively dramatic brushed aluminum paneled entry and polished metal accents are just a few of the design elements that have made Southfield Chrysler-Jeep the newest “polished gem” in their commercial neighborhood.  

     
 

Crestwood Dodge
Garden City, Michigan

Crestwood Dodge had undergone an extensive building program several years ago with an innovative 20,000 sf Service Department and Write-Up Reception addition. The latest in technology and design was incorporated into the addition to challenge the 90's product line and continue to improve the Customer Satisfaction Index.

The recent Showroom Renovation completes a total dealership transformation from the standard 25-year-old Chrysler facility.

Sophistication, elegance and openness were the design goals to achieve - SUCCESS!
