The new Berlin office of US American Law firm Ogletree Deakins International LLP is located within a historically protected building at Tauentzienstraße in the district of Charlottenburg.
Following the tradition of United Architektur, we created a 1:50 physical model to help explore design ideas and present them to our clients in the clearest way possible. Our design concept makes internal circulation the central theme. The cellular office structure on both sides of the corridor is broken up by four communal areas for special uses: Office library, conference and meeting area, flexible working and office kitchen. The areas differ in terms of their shape, furnishings and lighting concept. Glass walls create an atmosphere of openness. They contrast with new color layers of complementary colors such as blue and red tones. This creates constantly changing and surprising impressions between the objects and wall levels, filling the office with life.
