Shoosmiths is the law firm clients choose for excellent service, incisive thinking and above all for its ability to focus on what matters. From offices across the UK and Brussels, the firm supports some of the world’s most exciting and ambitious businesses; amazing clients making an impact.
The move to Grade A office space at the BCO award-winning 103 Colmore Row reflected the firm’s innovative and client-focused approach. The 223,631 sq ft building boasts a mix of top class offices and high-quality amenity spaces - including a two-storey, top-floor restaurant and ground floor café - as well as a range of technological innovations. We knew that the project was big news for Birmingham, with such a pre-eminent law firm establishing its new home in the city’s most iconic new development.
Our brief was to deliver a shining example of post-pandemic working, including creating a ‘destination office space’ fit for a hybrid environment, where clients and colleagues could do business.
To achieve that goal, the final design would need to be much more than just an ‘office space’, instead it would need to represent a new home that embodied Shoosmiths’ identity, culture and values.
