Article Abstract:
Roundtable Press commissioned design firm HughesGroup to redesign its Manhattan, NY, offices at a limited budget. Hughes designers prepared an austere package based on the principle of maximizing space use. Roundtable executive offices were positioned along an arched window wall and separated with a partition to create private areas. The angled glass which was used to separate the executive offices from the general areas added to the illusion of space and allowed the passage of natural light.
