Through spatial organization and imagery, the firm’s aggressive nontraditional approach to practicing law is articulated in a synergistic environment that encourages the interchange of ideas through a team approach. The progression from the elegantly proportioned traditional envelope to the inner core, which is reduced to geometric forms and materials, reveals the firm’s emphasis on a streamlined, interactive method of practice. Central to the concept is the “forum” space featuring computer and audio-visual systems; playfully disguised as a basketball court, it promotes the exchange of ideas and exemplifies the firm’s unique culture.
