28%

Auto-set by layout. Enclosed/traditional (18-22%): predictable corridors, repetitive bays, minimal informal zones. Mixed (25-30%): standard Class A/B, corridor + open zone blend. Open plan (30-35%): wide aisles, collab pockets, soft seating throughout. Activity-based (35-42%): neighborhood connectors, variety zones, generous informal pathways. Downtown Class A typically runs 2-4% higher than suburban.

15%

Full-floor tenants: 20-30%; multi-tenant/divided floors: 30-40%. Suburban flex / single-story: 5-15%. Adjust to match your building.
