concept and inspiration.
the design of this high-luxe law firm is influenced and inspired by woman's empowerment, specifically minorities. Near and dear to the owner's background and way of life, she tirelessly has aimed to not only create spaces but to help women of color step into their light and lead with confidence and full support behind them. the concept of this space is inspired by the delicacy yet the strength of a feather, one that is dipped in gold and held on a silver platter
the importance of diversity plays in welcoming users into an empowering environment that allows specifically those of color to embrace, connect and commune in a safe and comfortable way. the aesthetic and physical nature of the firm will create a luxurious, elevated ambiance that woman will feel their best in
