State-of-the-art Tech

The new offices at Latham & Watkins’ Manchester location are an impressive blend of comfort, innovation, and efficiency. Carefully planned and executed, the design represents a departure from traditional law firm offices, introducing a fresh approach to the workplace. The new office layout features sit-stand workstations, providing employees with the flexibility to choose their working posture throughout the day. These workstations are designed with ergonomic principles in mind, enhancing productivity and the overall well-being of the staff.

State-of-the-art AV technology has been integrated into the meeting rooms, making collaborations more efficient and engaging. The cutting-edge systems include interactive displays and advanced conferencing tools that facilitate smooth communication both within the team and with external partners.

Beyond the workspaces, the office includes comfortable break-out areas where staff can relax, have lunch, or enjoy a coffee. These informal spaces are furnished with plush seating and a soothing ambience, offering employees an inviting place to take a break or engage in casual conversations with colleagues.

The collaboration between K2 Space and the Latham & Watkins team led to a new workplace design concept that not only meets the demands of a modern legal firm but also creates an environment that fosters creativity, teamwork, and comfort. By incorporating elements that promote physical wellness and seamless collaboration, they have succeeded in transforming the Manchester office into a space that supports and enhances the way their staff works. This innovative approach reflects a forward-thinking vision in law firm office design, acknowledging the evolving needs and preferences of today’s workforce.
