The design brief for this leading London law firm called for minimal detailing yet high performance. The client's desire for a move away from the traditional corporate look provided scope for the creative use of glass and manifestation in order to create a light and airy working environment.

Optima's 117 single glazed system with acoustic glass and virtually invisible Nebula dry joints provided the perfect solution for the fee earner floors. Single glazed doors in Microflush frames provided high levels of acoustics without the need for timber doors, thereby ensuring maximum light penetration to the heavily cellularised space. Optima's Advanced System Drywall formed the divide between offices, with crisp shadow gaps at the head and vertical abutments reflecting the level of quality and attention to detail throughout the installation.

Manifestation was used on the fee earner floors as an effective way to inject colour into the scheme. For the client meeting rooms, where Optima's double glazed mullion-free Revolution system with flush double glazed doors in Microflush frames was installed in order to further enhance the acoustic performance, digitally printed manifestation of woodland landscapes created maximum impact in a space that perfectly reflected the requirements and needs of the client.
