Chicago Family Law Lawyers
The Architectural Design of the Law Offices of Nottage & Ward
June, 1988
PRESS RELEASE:
The Law Offices of NOTTAGE & WARD
A private elevator takes one up to the Penthouse law offices of NOTTAGE & WARD, designed by Chicago-based FERNANDEZ & GEORGE Inc. This renovated loop space is loaded with custom details including atrium skylights with architectural elements based on the Villa Derveni in Greece. A subtle palette of ivories and warm greys are reiterated by an ample use of exotic marbles, granites, and stainless steel. All of this is juxtaposed against sleek black leathers and luxurious upholstery, creating an intelligent and tranquil atmosphere for very personal lawyer-client conferences.
As opposed to the traditional law office decor, (lots of wood, rigid furniture, and a general sense of outdated machismo) FERNANDEZ & GEORGE created what’s been called “the most streamlined legal offices” in the loop. By accenting the building’s inherent angles and axial skeleton, FERNANDEZ & GEORGE developed a smooth and architecturally significant series of suites.
Moreover, after considering this firm’s heavy volume of divorce cases, FERNANDEZ & GEORGE added a spectacular bar in the executive conference room for “those extra tense moments”.
