ALLEN & OVERY – Modern Law Flexible Office in Karlín, Czech Republic by Studio ReaktorJune 11th, 2022 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Studio Reaktor Can we take the DNA of a successful law firm and transform it into a modern, open and airy space? How do we combine teamwork with complicated or discreet meetings? Our solution reflects the dynamic and flexible nature of the contemporary world. We turned the old cliche, that barrister’s chambers have to have high pile carpets, leather club chairs and an understated lobby, on its head. We drew our inspiration from the client’s work and from its key output – a contract. In our case a contract with design. A contract with a refined space for lawyers, who need focus rooms and teamwork spaces and who often work from home, but need frequent access to modern technology, which is mostly cloud-based.

This Mulberry tree was a very old and mature landscape element when the site was first visited. The placement of the tree became the paramount device to configure the residence design that gave the house its unique identity.  Image Courtesy © DADA

Developed from the simplicity of the Modern-Minimal Style, the house is decorated with only a few numbers of items, yet all are incredibly unique and reflective of the owner’s character. Unintentionally, the understated elements of modern industrial materials such as steel, mirror, and other materials whose true, natural attributes are left exposed, are combined and integrated to the house’s Mid-Century aesthetics. The house is among over 10 residences the owner owns, and each has its own highly unique character and identify. MAISON T. is designed to be a party house to accommodate gatherings and parties between friends and acquaintances with a high level of privacy and safety in the time of COVID-19.
