The design process of this law office was based on the clear potential of the space- a large open space surrounded by curtain walls with a stunning sea view. Right from the beginning it was clear that the main focus of this project needs to be the view and the different ways that it can be conveyed.
Although the program required a clear separation of zones, it was important to maintain a light and airy feel. The row of private offices is gently screened from the corridor and lobby, remaining visually connected and enabling the surrounding panorama to penetrate inside. The spacious library with a see-through bookcase conveys the open mood of the entire office.
The sole contrast is the black box housing a production and storage area, yet even this element is softened and does not appear out of place. This element is using a black painted glass finish which serves as a focal point thru reflecting the over space and the ocean view.
In the case of this project, the requirements of working parents were in the forefront. The resulting “kids room”, adjoining the kitchenette, provides a dedicated space for children’s after-school activities while parents work only steps away.
The interior design projects not the staid, conservative image so often associated with law firms, but a welcoming environment for professionals, their children, and clients.
