Futureproof
Savile Row were mindful of future change requirements,
undertaking a future proofing strategy by specifying moveable
office furniture systems in open plan areas to accommodate
future layout changes which provide an inexpensive method of
flexibility. Centrally located coffee and print stations throughout
all five of the office floors ensure close-range access to support
facilities while project rooms and work zones that are also
located close to the cafe pause area benefit from dramatic
views into a light filled atrium.
Design Features
The reception on the 12th floor makes reference to a ‘Lawyers’s
Library’ with wall ladders propped against bookshelves framed
by black stained ash wall cladding. Hazelnut leather upholstered
banquet seats with button detailing sit alongside contemporary
80
high back armchairs in the waiting area. A feature spiral stair-
case links the reception to the 14th floor, housing the executive
dining room, bar lounge and outdoor deck area. These uppermost
floors were designed to provide a welcoming platform that is
both elegant and timeless by using a sophisticated palette of
contrasting dark and light materials.
A neutral base of black, greys and crisp whites are offset
by warmer finishes in the form of brass, timbers and game
leathers which are further enhanced by a range of muted greens,
aubergine, navy and burgundy colour accents that speak to the
diversity of the practice.
A variety of medium to large sized meeting rooms are placed
alongside the reception to accommodate client meetings and
negotiations with opponent lawyers.
Linen wallpapers, stucco wall finishes, graphic glass decals and
a matching custom broadloom carpet add texture and pattern to
