Wall Street Financial Services Firm

A State-of-the-Art Trading Floor Packed with Amenities

In our trading floor design and planning, we see technology as an elegant, discreet enabler for the activities and communications there. This means that the careful calibration of plan geometries, seating & desking distances, relative heights, display arrays, personal geographics, and so on, form the ‘toolkit’ for design and planning an effective trading floor.

Our client already occupies half of floorplate, so the project needed to be constructed in two phases. We have designed and executed dozens of project under such circumstances, including trading floors/workplaces for them. There are mission critical systems needing close attention during this period: IT infrastructure, power supply & UPS, 24-hour cooling, air conditioning, lighting,.etc.

We created seamless integration of human and tech needs in this project, We admire and respect that they are the market leader in technology applied to quantitative trading. Uniquely, our designers and our IT/AV colleagues sit together, working as a team, and collaborate fluidly to share creative ideas and explore innovative solutions. We successfully intergraded space planning, design, IT and AV in the business environment.

We successfully delivered a vibrant, stimulating, technology-driven environment that promotes creative problem-solving, collaboration and innovation. Productivity and efficiency on the trading floor and support zone balanced by opportunities for client to ‘let their hair down’, feel at home and have fun.
