10 S Riverside Spec Suites

Chicago, Illinois

Our client asked OKW to envision attractive spec suites at 10 S Riverside. OKW created a concept that selectively partitions the office into different work spaces, using a central node called the Knuckle to unify the two.

Much like the River, the office flows effortlessly from one space to another. Using architectural detailing, such as slatted millwork and decorative light fixtures, the Knuckle becomes a gathering place for both conferences, collaboration exercises, and social gatherings.

The furniture selections reflect a natural palette, which combined with blue, green, and aquamarine tones in the wall coverings and upholstery, result in a serene and calming office, evocative of the Chicago River just outside.
