For the past decade, IA has partnered with Womble Bond Dickinson to redefine its traditional law firm environment through progressive, forward-thinking workplace design. Our collaboration has focused on striking the perfect balance—professionalism with hospitality, efficiency with elegance, and regional identity with brand consistency.
Each location is influenced by the design’s emphasis on optimized layouts, engaging workspaces, and environments that reflect both local culture and core values. Key objectives include enhancing efficiency through refined floor plans, maximizing natural light and views, maintaining privacy, and integrating dynamic collaboration zones that support diverse legal workflows. Offices are thoughtfully designed to embrace their regional context, with curated material palettes—along with the firm’s extensive art collection that enriches each space—reinforcing brand identity, elevating the workplace experience, and contributing to a strong sense of place.
Natural light and the strategic use of materials create an open yet private atmosphere. Multipurpose collaboration spaces—featuring adaptable meeting areas and operable partitions—provide the flexibility needed for various work functions. Material selections from rich wood tones to textured wall treatments balance modern professionalism with a warm, residential-inspired ambiance.
Reflecting modern workplace principles, each location integrates universal-sized offices, flexible meeting areas, and collaborative zones. Full-glass fronts and open sightlines maximize daylight penetration, ensuring a sense of openness and connectivity. Residential-inspired elements, regional artistic touches, and cultural references create an inviting atmosphere. Multi-functional spaces and standard-size offices ensure future adaptability and expansion.
These benchmark designs set a new criteria for the legal workplace—where functionality meets elegance and employees and clients feel at home. By embracing regional influences, optimizing space efficiency, and integrating flexibility, the offices establish a forward-thinking model for Womble Bond Dickinson’s future transformations.
The latest completed projects in Atlanta, GA, and Greenville, SC, exemplify this approach, each incorporating unique location-specific design elements. Greenville’s office reflects its riverfront setting, while Atlanta’s design references classic Southern architectural traditions, ensuring both spaces are deeply connected to their surroundings.
