Repeat franchise client — second Hand & Stone location delivered.
For a Hand & Stone massage franchise in Pearland, QD Design provided architecture and MEP design plus fire marshal and TDLR accessibility coordination. Spa franchises need quiet, humidity-stable treatment rooms, generous hot-water capacity, and privacy-driven space planning that still satisfies egress — the kind of program where having the architect and MEP engineer be the same firm eliminates redesign loops. This was QD Design's second Hand & Stone location, evidence of repeat franchise trust.
