Location: Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Hourglass, Amsterdam
The Law of Attraction
During times of Covid-19, Powerhouse finalized the Hourglass office interior for a top tier law firm in Amsterdam. In 2018, we won the pitch to design this interior by creating a space that embraces the firm?s values such as transparency, inclusivity and high quality. For this design we worked within the architecture of Dam & Partners? hourglass-shaped building. By reshaping and softening the spectacular main atrium of the design we sculpted an open space that warmly welcomes clients and employees ? and beautifully balances the more closed and compact office spaces required for legal work. With its emphasis on projecting approachability and allure, as well as traditional trustworthiness, the Hourglass creates a new blueprint for law firms.
A welcome feeling
Our design opens up the lobby, greeting clients with an impressive welcoming gesture. Sweeping stairs, set against a green wall, lead upwards to the expansive atrium bathed in light. The lobby coffee bar adds to the feeling of informality and hospitality. For the law firm, the interior needs to combine very different needs: atmospheric public spaces like this for clients, staff meetings and socializing, and private working spaces for legal work.
