BP Spotlight

As leading experts in workplace strategy, planning, and design, Gensler’s workplace projects draw from global experience with clients across every major industry sector, including professional services firms and law firms. We have the distinction of having worked with the most respected firms in the practice of law, groups that are large and nationally or internationally known as well as those determined to maintain the benefits of a smaller organization. Quality is our highest priority and is at the heart of everything we do.

Unique Approach:

Our most defining feature and point of pride as a firm is our ability to truly collaborate with our clients. Your satisfaction and how we can leverage our experience, research and benchmarking to support your business drivers and foster your culture is the foundation of our work. Our tremendous investment in workplace research informs a data-driven approach to design that’s further enhanced by benchmarking from our vast clientele. We see beyond the present and design with intention instead of reaction; our upfront real-estate and visioning strategies paired with creative team engagement will lead the most dynamic approach to your project.

Legal Thought Leaders:

Our global portfolio of law firm projects is unparalleled. Our practice completes millions of square feet every year for our law firm clients, using design thinking to help solve business problems. We leverage the best benchmarking from our extensive legal industry experience while listening and collaborating with you every step of the way.

Robust Research Network:

The Gensler Research Institute is a network of researchers within Gensler with a singular focus: developing a deeper understanding of the connection between design, business, and the human experience. Through a combination of research grants and external partnerships that are given, we seek insights that will help solve our clients’ most pressing challenges. We are committed to unlocking new solutions and strategies that will define the future of design. Further, we create software and tools to facilitate exploration, amplify the creative process and enhance the delivery of our projects.

Real-Time Data & Benchmarking:

As a result of our extensive project base, Gensler has enviable access to some of the most prominent and successful firms in business today. We have a large pool of current clients from which to gather feedback, both formally and informally, to increase our knowledge base and inform our decision-making. Our continuously updated in-house communication channels and methodologies, including written research products, webinars, practice sector meetings, and special interest groups and publications, help keep all team members informed. Our database is invaluable in establishing strategic programs, benchmarking data, and evaluating the effectiveness of design solutions for our law firm clients domestically and internationally.

Multi-Disciplinary, Diverse, & Local Team:

While we are global, we are also local and are committed to bringing the best talent to each project from any of our locations to wherever our clients are. We have the ability in house to craft a multi-disciplined team, with local specialists not only in architecture, interior design, and law firm strategy, but professionals focused on brand, signage & wayfinding, sustainability and wellness all working together to create thoughtful, original, and compelling solutions. We believe that teams who are embedded within their local community, from diverse backgrounds and talents, ignite our design innovation and support our expertise.
