The Interiors Group fits out Stone Harbor offices

The Interiors Group has recently fitted out new offices in a high quality landmark development in Mayfair for Stone Harbor Investment Partners, a global fixed-income investment manager.

The Interiors Group was chosen by Shiro Muchiri of Interni Design Studio as its partner to create a new office environment for Stone Harbor's new European headquarters.

After a rapid growth, Stone Harbor decided to relocate to larger premises and take a floor of the corporate headquarters at 48 Dover Street, an office and retail development positioned off Piccadilly in Mayfair.

Noise levels, a comprehensive lighting design and the creation of a gym were all an important part of the brief.

Stone Harbor also wanted to form a corporate identity that reflected its American classic culture.

A specialist lighting designer was briefed to design the lighting system following the strategy, which was 'task lighting', not just random ambient lighting.

The lighting scheme was based on the use of LEDs and fluorescent lamps to create a low-energy space.

Light fittings were also specified to be in keeping with the overall design theme.

Another unusual office-lighting element was the backlit Barrisol ceiling, which created a skylight effect.

The additional benefit of this was it performs well for video.

The reception area has been fitted out with panelled walls and a bespoke reception desk with complementary neutral stone-colour flooring.

The meeting rooms vary in their size and design and include privalite curved glass and doors, which turns opaque.

The bench desking was selected to create 20m of seamless working area, giving the client maximum flexibility, with Mirra chairs selected for comfort and adjustability.
