Allen & Gledhill is one of the largest and leading law firms in Singapore, with a notable and growing presence in the Southeast Asian region.

The first office in Shanghai, China, is designed by UNION and constructed by Aegis Architecture. The office design maintains a classic interpretation of a law firm, incorporating elements of Chinese tradition such as water graphics and mountains, which are extracted and reimagined in a modern style.

The blend of solid wood and marble creates a sophisticated and luxurious atmosphere in the space. Contemporary versions of traditional Chinese patterns are artistically crafted into stylish metal frames on the walls and partitions.

The design prioritizes acoustic solutions and incorporates soft, ambient lighting throughout. Easy maintenance was a key consideration for the designers, ensuring practicality in keeping the space clean and well-maintained.
