Crafting Spaces That Reflect Your Brand

CDI Solutions is thrilled to present the interior design for the 24,000-square-foot headquarters of Gordon McKernan Injury Attorneys, a project that embodies the perfect fusion of functionality and aesthetic appeal. With a budget of $5,000,000, this headquarters showcases our expertise in creating corporate spaces that reflect the client’s brand identity while delivering an inviting and professional environment for both staff and clients. 

Thoughtful Design

The design’s color palette plays a crucial role in setting the tone for the entire office. Soft neutral hues are balanced with rich walnut accents, creating a cohesive and polished visual language. Materials were selected for both durability and refinement, ensuring the space can withstand the demands of a busy law firm while maintaining its sophisticated look. This thoughtful selection supports the well-being and comfort of both employees and visitors, aligning aesthetics with practicality. 

A Space That Meets Every Need

Versatility is a cornerstone of the design, particularly evident in the “mock” courtroom located on the ground floor. This space is an invaluable resource for the firm, allowing lawyers and clients to simulate courtroom proceedings. Designed with a judge’s bench, jury box, and attorney tables, the room’s sophisticated design includes a blend of light and dark wood stains. The courtroom can also be transformed into a large conference room thanks to modular low-wall dividers on 360° casters, maximizing the space’s usability.

Crafted for a Cohesive Experience

The flow and connectivity throughout the headquarters were carefully considered in the design. In the lobby, a ceiling cloud with reveal lines breaks up the surface area, visually connecting the second-floor conference rooms to the main lobby. This design, combined with neutral tones and walnut accents, creates a harmonious and elegant atmosphere. The second-floor conference rooms mirror this attention to detail, featuring subtle patterns in the flooring and ceiling soffits that enhance the professional yet welcoming environment. These rooms offer flexibility, accommodating both large meetings and smaller, more intimate gatherings.

Functional Spaces That Enhance Every Experience

The overall design philosophy for the Gordon McKernan Injury Attorneys headquarters was rooted in creating a contemporary yet comfortable space. Warm finishes were chosen to avoid a sterile feel, and the materials and color palette reflect the firm’s corporate identity. The result is an office that balances professionalism with approachability, ensuring both clients and staff feel at ease upon entering. In conclusion, the successful completion of this headquarters highlights CDI Solutions’ ability to create sophisticated, multifunctional corporate environments. Through careful attention to detail and a focus on quality craftsmanship, we’ve delivered a space that not only meets the functional needs of a law firm but also enhances the experience of everyone who enters. This project exemplifies our dedication to designing spaces that support both professional and personal well-being.
