Smooth lines guide the user journey in a transparent law firm interior

The interior design for Houthoff is based on the sightlines along the central core, consistently pursuing the rounded shape of the building. This guiding principle is emphasized by the materialisation of the integrated cabinets and separations. Each floor is accessed at its heart, an open, communicative space which features a pantry, touchdown meeting places and a conference room.

Parallel lines
The cabinets separating the private offices are placed perpendicular to a distinctive transition of colour in the floor, on an offset running parallel with the building core. Precisely on the separation of the floor transition, the cabinets give way to a transparent wall. This system provides sufficient seclusion to guarantee the confidential work processes and concentration of the employees, but also contributes to the open and transparent character of the rest of the floor. By allowing the lines in the ceiling to follow a different parallel, the design results warmer and more intimate. The gradual spatial transitions are enriched with curtains in the conference rooms and large planters at the open office zones.
