For Man Group, a highly active investment firm, creating a dynamic workspace that could continue to evolve with their growing team was a top priority. Combining elements of modern architecture with rich materiality to build upon global branding concepts, the design reflects the consolidation and expansion of three entities, while celebrating the unique attributes and heritage of each.
An open environment to drive interaction.
A custom glass and white terrazzo communicating stair serves as the main focal point of the space, connecting the reception and main trading area to the main café on the 26th floor. Taking advantage of the spectacular 360-degree panoramic views of Manhattan, the new office utilizes an open floor plan with multiple breakout environments, conducive to Man Group’s highly interactive trading environment. Accommodations for state-of-the-art technology, including a full tele-presence facility, were incorporated throughout.
