Can Craft Breathe New Life Into Workspace Design?

The Trilegal office, designed by Studio Lotus, acquires an identity of its own through its balanced expression that unites the law firm's roots in Indian culture with the egalitarian spirit and aspirations of its new-age workforce

- 

The contemporary workplace is in a continual state of flux. Workspaces today are expected to reinforce the company culture through their planning and design vocabulary, instill a sense of belonging and well-being, and spark innovation and exchange of ideas.

Known to be one of India's leading law firms, Trilegal's project brief for the interiors of their new office space called for creating a distinct brand identity-representative of their nationwide presence and embodying their future-forward vision. The office is designed to optimise workflows and promote collaboration, cocreation, and innovation-ideas central to Trilegal's ethos.

The office occupies the entire first floor of a commercial tower in the corporate heart of Gurugram. Spread across 19,000 sq.ft., the layout is split into two zones on either side of a 'Town Hall' a notional extension to the reception that serves as a breakout zone where employees can interact and decompress.A corridor from the reception leads visitors into the workspaces and a sequestered zone comprising shared amenities such as a cafeteria, a library, and private booths. This zone is configured for both staff and guests to easily access it without disrupting workflows.
