MIDTOWN INVESTMENT OFFICES

AN OPEN AND ADAPTABLE OFFICE LANDSCAPE ABOVE CENTRAL PARK

For the offices of JS Capital, the clients desired an open plan that maximized visual transparency with retaining acoustic privacy in the partner’s offices. The space is focused around a large board room with stunning views of Central Park. Two distinct paths lead to the board room, one for staff and one for visitors, each defined by distinct finish palettes.

Our idea is referential to history of office design, and makes use of the best features of the vintage Emery Roth building, while minimizing the effects of aging building elements and low ceilings.

We designed active flexible workstations for the office staff, with motorized standing desks for trading and seating arrangements that encourage communal work.

Given the extent of the exterior glass and the need for occupancy day, night, summer and winter, we paid special attention to flexible lighting, programming specific scenes that respond to the varying lighting needs.
