Angelo, Gordon & Co.’s new London offices evoke their excellent reputation in alternative investments and embrace the surrounding Savile Row streetscape throughout. Designed as a hub for their European business, the bright and spirited offices are flooded with natural light and incorporate Angelo Gordon’s preference for openness and transparency. White walls, bold color accents, warm materials, and a distinctive art collection create a welcoming and crisp environment for clients and staff.

Program: Reception, open work area, private offices, conference rooms, pantry and support spaces
The streetscape is made part of the design through carefully planned vistas and framed views of surrounding buildings and streets. The plan is organized into three areas: a centrally located reception area, an open work area designed for collaboration, and, a large conference/meeting wing that culminates in expansive views of Savile Row. Folding and pocket doors in the conference wing provides flexibility and acoustic control, allowing for numerous simultaneous meetings, major investor presentations, or social events.

Our Philosophy
We are committed to creating inspiring and humane contemporary architecture that helps people live better in our time.
We believe that design can enable change and create identity in order to flourish in a globally connected, rapidly changing and multi-cultural world. It can also provide a powerful connection to local surroundings and culture. Despite the ability to instantly communicate worldwide today, we see the need for public spaces that encourage social interaction, collaboration, and community, as timeless and more important than ever. Each of our projects is a unique opportunity to create a balance between an innovative contemporary architecture, an expression of each client’s aspirations, and a subtle response to local place.
