Haynes Boone HQ

The Haynes Boone HQ in Dallas, Texas, embodies a modernized workspace designed to meet the evolving needs of the firm’s personnel and clients. Crafted by the renowned architectural firm Gensler, the interior merges advanced technologies with eco-friendly functionality, reflecting the values of the firm’s lawyers, professional staff, and clientele.

The reimagined office prioritizes community, sustainability, and interactivity. It features expanded multiuse common areas alongside efficiently designed individual offices, fostering collaboration while maintaining a sense of personal space.

A standout design element is the striking “Starburst” installation above the primary staircase, created with Maxxit’s Tignum Traditional baffles. These baffles, with a sleek 1.5” x 6” profile, radiate outward in a captivating pattern, symbolizing boundless reach and innovation. The finishing—a Rift Cut White Oak woodgrain veneer with a clear coat—harmonizes seamlessly with the warm wood tones found throughout the office, including reception areas, the staircase, and furnishings.

This design’s natural aesthetic is further enhanced by its relationship with the space’s blue glass sculpture, which evokes the fluidity of water, while the woodgrain finish reflects the grounding element of earth. Together, these materials create a balanced and inspiring environment, showcasing the synergy of natural elements and thoughtful design.

The Haynes Boone HQ exemplifies how design can blend functionality, sustainability, and artistry to create a space that supports the needs of a modern law firm.
