Article Abstract:
Interior designer Clara Igonda executed the design of the first offices of the law firm Pircher, Nichols and Meeks in 1984. When the law firm moved to a new office in a Century City high-rise, Igonda was once more commissioned for the office interiors. Igonda captured the same light, airy quality while following traditional spatial organization. The center of the design drama consisted of the main reception area where a staircase enclosed in gracefully curving walls joins the two levels. Stainless steel rails provide a high contrast to the satin finish.

Architect Rick Mather incorporated Oriental influences in the interiors of the Now & Zen restaurant located in London's West End district. The central features of the design include a glass dragon made up of rough-cast glass bowls which stream water from one bowl to the next and a curving mezzanine. The graceful mezzanine contrasts with the glass, steel and bright lights of the interior. Colorful highlights consolidate the design from one level to the next, while providing the accent for certain areas.

Article Abstract:
The Brobeck Phleger and Harrison law offices in Los Angeles, CA, features a design which establishes the firm's progressive image and status. The designers created an interior design which reflects the Kohn Pederson Fox building's exterior design elements without replicating them. The result is an office where forms and textures subtly echo the outside through the use of Italian marble, horizontal reveals and custom and stock furnishings.
