Comprehensive multi-level office fitout for Duncan Cotterill Lawyers, featuring open-plan spaces and transparent partner offices, designed to foster collaboration and informal interactions in the heart of Christchurch.
2015, Central City, Christchurch
When Duncan Cotterill Lawyers became the anchor tenant of what is now known as ‘Duncan Cotterill Plaza’, +MAP was commissioned to design their large, multi-level office fitout, along with that of several other secondary tenants.
While carefully following Duncan Cotterills’ corporate identity guidelines, +MAP helped establish a new open-plan structure to the large law firms’ operating system. A combination of open plan spaces, flanked by transparent offices for partners were arranged, and a collection of informal breakout spaces were positioned at intersecting points help encourage informal meetings and unplanned encounters.
