Commercial construction has become uber-adversarial and high-risk for developers, IconX Builders is the antidote.
Who is IconX
IconX Builders began in 2014 as the design and construction division of our own retail center development firm using the La Madeline French restaurant concept as a primary anchor tenant in upscale, super fast growing counties in Texas and Colorado. Our objective was to stand out in a sea of sameness with our designs by working with the finest architects in Dallas and Denver and accelerate past other builders by attention to granular detail and precision execution. We succeeded.
IconX earned the opportunity to build for other developers and seized it with pleasure. Our seasoned, commercial construction management team has built over 30-hotels for premiere hotel groups like Marriott, Hilton and IHG, primarily in Texas and surrounding states. They have also worked alongside elite global architect and engineering firms like www.humpreys.com and www.jacobs.com to construct a 200,000 SF, 500-bed luxury student housing project called The View on the Square (www.theviewonthesquare.com) in addition to other multi-story, multi-family projects and retail centers in Dallas and Austin.
IconX also vertically integrated by forming a site preparation and wet utilities division that has completed projects ranging from a 14.7 acre multi-use site in Leander, TX, to complex sites on steep hillsides near downtown Austin like the www.westlineaustin.com and www.thecolorfieldaustin.com or the super-dense multistory, multifamily site for the www.emmabrowning.com.
Please give us the opportunity to build for you.
Our Ethos
-
Construction is tough work, no need to make it harder by acting tough. We treat every person whether owners, lenders, professionals, trenchers or framers the way we want to be treated. Building strong, mutually beneficial relationships with our clients, partners and employees starts with us. A positive attitude and a smile inspires others to have the same.
-
Designs and structures are often complex and communications time sensitive, detailed and impassioned; we use concise, accurate words spoken with kindness to define a collaborative course of action. Especially where we have been the bottleneck, we will be the first to call it out and do the right thing.
-
Listening, embracing diverse perspectives and collaborative analysis that engages each person’s expertise promotes creative thinking that delivers better buildings.
-
A healthy, safe work place inspires creativity, friendship and a commitment to excellence. We define healthy as the best people, in the best environment with the best tools. Add to this proper training, the safety process begins long before any construction is started. Safe construction means work delivered on time and efficiently.
-
A continuous two-way transfer of information is an imperative. We want and need our clients to see, hear and touch everything.
How We Build
“The IconX team believes commercial construction is, at its core, precision execution through well defined, proven process managed by sharp-minded people across the most diverse and challenging topography of any industry – boardrooms to basements, office towers to ditches and every conceivable place in between. A successful project begins and ends with the people directly responsible. Bright, inspired people in love with what they do who are empowered by best-in-class technologies are the key.
Let’s be clear, the project is only as good as the people who are making things happen.”
— Dan M. McReynolds, CEO
