King & Spalding
Structure Tone New York helped King & Spalding relocate its New York office across Four floors at 1290 Avenue of the Americas. The workplace brings together private offices, workstations, meeting and conference spaces, and high-end amenities, creating a sophisticated environment with a variety of settings for focused work, collaboration, and gathering.
At the heart of the office is a two-floor conference center, consisting of boardrooms, a multipurpose space, studios, and meeting rooms. Three interconnecting staircases create strong visual and physical connections between floors, including a sculptural curved stair framed by glass railings, integrated greenery, and a multi-story light installation.
Workplace amenities include a café and barista area, a warming pantry and other food service stations, wellness rooms, and a range of informal seating and gathering space. Wood detailing, curved architectural forms, integrated planting, and contrasting light and dark finishes give the interiors a distinct character, while enclosed booths, communal tables, lounge seating, and open work areas provide employees with different ways to use the space.
Four landscaped terraces totaling approximately 20,000sf extend the workplace outdoors, providing multiple settings for working, meeting, and gathering against the Midtown skyline. Expansive glazing throughout the office draws daylight into the interiors and strengthens the connection between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Behind the finished environment, the project included significant infrastructure and support components, including MDF/IDF and UPS rooms, copy and print areas, storage, and an exterior façade upgrade. Together, the three-floor workplace balances the functionality of a modern law office with high-end architectural detailing, extensive amenities, and generous outdoor space.
