Associate and Senior Designer, Anna Reiderman-Hickey, recently shared insights on the products shaping law firm interiors in a recent issue of Metropolis magazine.

Anna highlights the growing importance of hospitality-inspired design in law firms: “Because of the confidentiality required in law firm work areas themselves, the places where people mingle become even more important to building the sense of community that fosters attorneys’ most creative thinking.”

Congratulations to our summer intern, Rianna Reynolds, on being named the recipient of this year’s IIDA New England Croquet Scholarship!

Rianna is a rising junior interior design major at Wentworth Institute of Technology, with a passion for integrating universal design, advanced spatial planning, and sustainable practices across a wide range of projects and fields.

The Croquet Scholarship recognizes exceptional students pursuing a degree or certificate in Interior Design or Interior Architecture throughout New England. Scholarship recipients were announced at IIDA New England’s annual Croquet Tournament at the end of July.

We’ve loved having Rianna as part of our team this summer and are so excited to see all that she accomplishes next. Congratulations, Rianna, and best wishes for the year ahead!

For those putting the finishes touches on your World Interiors News (WIN) Awards submissions, Senior Associate Lawrence Ko, one of this year’s judges, shared this advise:

“Often your work must stand on its own, but your submission offers an opportunity to articulate the ideas and concepts behind it. Put forth a cogent point of view. You may have numerous drawings and many ideas to convey, but a focused narrative paired with carefully selected visuals will have greater potency and impact.”

The deadline is tomorrow August 6. Best of luck to everyone entering!

Insight: With construction costs rising, the balance between experience and efficiency can't be an afterthought — designers must engage with budget realities from the very first conversation. Every dollar has to work harder, and cost strategy and design intent need to develop together, not in sequence.

To ensure its clients stay ahead of emerging trends in law firm workplace design, Elkus Manfredi produces a biannual Legal Workplace Snapshot© research report featuring proprietary analysis and insights.

Senior Associate and Director of Sustainability, Kristen Fritsch will join the Global Network for Zero's July webinar, "Beyond Carbon: Why Water and Waste Are Central to Net Zero Success."

As the built environment evolves, sustainability leaders are looking beyond operational carbon to embrace a more holistic approach to resilient, high-performance design.

With more than 20 years of experience advancing sustainable architecture, Kristen has helped integrate energy efficiency, resilient design, material transparency, and green building strategies into projects across a wide range of sectors. Her work reflects a simple truth: achieving net zero isn't just about reducing carbon emissions—it's about creating buildings that perform better, last longer, and deliver greater value for people and communities.

Join Kristen and an outstanding panel of industry leaders on Tuesday, July 28, at 12:00 p.m., as they discuss why the next generation of sustainability leadership must address water, waste, resilience, and whole-building performance alongside carbon.
