In 2016, when law practice Boies Schiller Flexner (BSF) decided to relocate its Manhattan office from traditional, disjointed Midtown quarters to four contiguous floors in 55 Hudson Yards—a new skyscraper by KPF that was under construction at the time—the firm commissioned Schiller Projects (SP) to invigorate its workplace by reflecting its increasingly collaborative culture.

The resulting data enabled the design team to clearly communicate its strategy to the client and develop a program that would substantially revise the way it does business.
