Designing a new hub for corporate and investment banking

BNP Paribas,
New York

This project represented an opportunity to create new space for the corporate and investment banking activities of BNP Paribas (BNPP). The new work environment, which includes an executive area as well as other amenity space, is highly collaborative and designed for the next generation of technology. Project implementation was based on multiple phases to accommodate the handover of new floors and the build-out of interim space for phasing.

Enhancing the work experience

Four floors were connected by extending and upgrading an existing stair to provide a vertical connection of these floors. The design achieved the client’s aspirations while also developing a new workplace standard for the commercial investment bank. The new space is fluid, transparent and harmonious, and maximizes natural daylight to enhance the work experience.
