Glass partitions for agile working at Withersworldwide

We were happy to work with KKS and ISG on the design and creation of these new spaces.  A range of glass partitions for agile working achieved a stunning interior, fit for purpose.  The design also achieved a BREEAM excellent rating proving it’s sustainability credentials.

Introducing light and space

Firstly, with a common sense approach to reduce its city rent bill, Withers brief was to increase the use of agile working within its new premises at 20 Old Bailey.  The company experimented with glass partitions for agile working in some of its teams and due to the success is now rolling this out in their new offices.  

Where space was more limited, meeting rooms onto the central atrium used our Kinetic Aero sliding doors. Kinetic Aero is a contemporary fully framed sliding door with an enhanced slam post which offers an improved acoustic seal over frameless sliding doors. Furthermore the framing profile to the leading edge of the door houses a centrally positioned lock.  Therefore, the use of glass doors and glass partitions for agile working enhanced the space and made it functional.

In addition, at the entrance to the stylish cafe, the Edge Symmetry glass doors enhance the sense of light and space within the area.  Similarly, in other parts of the scheme, Revolution 100 provided a high level of acoustic privacy whilst Optima 117 Plus partitions offered privacy for some of the office spaces.

100 year heritage

Above all they advise clients on their business and personal legal needs around the world. They are one of the largest law firms in the world dedicated to the needs of successful people, their families, their businesses and their philanthropic work. Finally it is true to say that in this fast-moving and increasingly regulated world, the need for integrated advice has never been more important. We are proud of the stylish and functional interior fully ultilising our glass partitions for agile working.
