A duplex is a multi-family home that has two units in one building — regardless of how those homes are arranged. Units can be side-by-side or stacked on top of each other.

Duplex buildings also have two separate entrances for each unit. This means each tenant has their own entrance. An example of a duplex is a house with two doors side-by-side that enter into different living spaces in one home, one upstairs and one downstairs. These two separate units are typically similar in size.

There are other types of housing that have multiple homes within one building, like a triplex and fourplex. But the term duplex is reserved exclusively for multi-family housing with two homes.

"OFFICE INTERIOR"

Office design is vital to both employees and customers. For employees who spend a large part of their day in an office, it is crucial to create a space that’s functional, visually appealing, comfortable, and inviting—all of which promote productivity and efficiency. For customers, office design sets the tone for a business and tells a story about the brand, professionalism, and success.

Similar to evidence-based design in healthcare settings, interior design—no matter what the location—affects people’s moods, attitudes, inspiration, drive, and everything in between. That is why building a space conducive for owners, employees, and customers is no longer being considered just a luxury, it’s becoming a necessity.
