Consulting Client LA
An elevated, hospitality-driven workplace with sweeping views of Los Angeles.
Building on a long-standing client partnership and a series of successful national projects, HLW’s latest Los Angeles workplace design reflects a refined evolution in design thinking. Located on the 39th floor of a landmark Century City tower, the new space captures panoramic views from the Pacific Coast to Downtown Los Angeles. Designed to create a welcoming and memorable client experience, the floor introduces hospitality-inspired comfort, warmth, and connection through flexible gathering zones and an expansive café.
The workplace supports a team-oriented culture, with individually scaled work bays interspersed between social and amenity spaces to encourage movement and collaboration. A key architectural intervention extended an existing internal staircase to link three consecutive floors, transforming it into a vertical feature that enhances connectivity and visual impact. The new stair is unified through a continuous wall graphic and lighting composition that visually connects the levels.
The reimagined café anchors the floor as a bright, all-day destination that maximizes natural light and city views. A continuous timber ceiling unifies reception, collaboration, and work areas, creating a cohesive architectural language that balances warmth, openness, and acoustic performance.
