The design for the New York flagship office of Elan Pharmaceutical, an Irish pharmaceutical company, centers around the desire bring daylight and views into the interior. Natural lighting comes from a single wall of south-facing windows. 

We introduced transparent dividing walls to the executive offices along that facade that allow light to penetrate deep into the inside. In front of these offices, a gently curving wall tracks the sun's progression. Materials become progressively more solid further inside the office, transitioning from glass to wood to steel at the entrance. The use of a strong blue element emphasizes the firm's brand.
