Manhattan Law Firm

Expanded, Light-Infused New Facility Optimizes Desirable Location

A complete renovation of this open style, 5,000 square foot facility allowed a Manhattan law firm to remain at a desirable address, double their existing footprint, and create a more appropriate brand image. Nine-foot high corridors terminate in windows so daylight infuses the circulation spaces. Private offices are open to the 13-foot exposed structure above and maximum glass frontage takes further advantage of natural light. Specially designed wood doors define each private office entrance. A sweeping curved reception desk with radiating ‘beams’ illuminated by sprays of light is a distinctive feature conceived by celebrated lighting designer, Howard Brandston. Two large conference rooms, ample workspaces for ancillary staff, and a polished concrete lobby floor add to the new facility’s functional yield and aesthetic appeal. Project completion is planned for the close of 2012.
