Pinsent Masons’ new Melbourne workspace redefines the concept of an office and explores new ways of working with a variety of responsive and inclusive environments.

 

Occupying a single-floor space within the prestigious 101 Collins Street, the fitout is reflective of the multinational law firm’s culture, showcasing global excellence with a distinct local identity.

Pinsent Masons were seeking to shift their aesthetic away from a startup feel to a more mature and sophisticated atmosphere with warmer tones. The change aligned with the growth of their Melbourne presence, marking a new beginning as their employees returned to the office.

The new fitout draws on a textured, neutral palette to convey the strength and endurance of Pinsent Mason’s global brand, their established presence in the Australian market, and the warmth of their people and culture. Equal value is placed on the visitor and staff experience, with a singular design language throughout.

The open plan layout is designed to minimise hierarchy and foster a more collaborative atmosphere. Being anchored to the central core of the building allows for focussed work in high acoustic settings, whilst maximising natural light and 360-degree views to the workspace neighbourhoods.

The hybrid environment provides employees with a choice of how and where to work, including collaborative areas, flexible offices, multi-purpose rooms, library quiet spaces and bookable meeting rooms.
