HEADQUARTERS · SEATTLE
No corner offices
Gensler helped Davis Wright Tremaine choose the site and design its new downtown Seattle headquarters, using its research on legal workplaces. The firm wanted a hospitality experience: an expansive reception area can host large functions. Office sizes were standardised and corner offices removed to make room for meeting spaces. Glass office fronts let daylight reach the interior and open up views, and an interconnecting stair joins all floors so lawyers and staff move easily between them.
