Ospraie Management, a growing asset firm, wanted an open, welcoming environment. They found their new headquarters in a 15,000 square foot office in a prime Park Avenue location. TMA demonstrated an intelligently designed elegant space comprising of private offices, open areas, conference rooms and a trading area. Architectural elements, with a classically modern design, not only define the space but also act as a “roadmap” to help navigate around the core and also highlight key functional elements throughout the space. A glowing onyx wall provides a dramatic backdrop to the dark brown, wenge wood reception desk, which also acts as a secure home for the technology that supports the receptionist. Upon leaving the reception area, there is a ropery cherry wall that acts as a space divider and as a storage closet with multiple file drawers. Another onyx feature, lit primarily by daylight, acts as the front wall of one of the client conference rooms and provides a focal point that draws one towards the boardroom. Along this corridor is a volume of ice-blue glass that is the trading room.
