The global headquarters of Grey Group, one of the world's leading marketing communications companies, is in a landmark building in New York's renowned Flatiron district. Studios Architecture worked with Grey to create a design that highlighted the original features of the building while creating a collaborative environment with a warm modernism. Authentic materials are used throughout from reclaimed wood to raw cork to the original restored red concrete flooring. Light floods the space thanks to the new 15-story glass curtain wall. Art installations in wood, neon and metal dot the building and add to the creative cachet. Modern furniture is used throughout from the likes of Hans Wegner, Flos, and Moooi. The project also features products manufactured by De La Espada including Hepburn Modular Sofa by Matthew Hilton; King Lamp, Mushroom coffee table and Sledge by Autoban; and Lin Bench by Leif.designpark.
