Connell Foley LLP, a New Jersey-based law firm, recently opened its new corporate headquarters at 56 Roseland. The new 75,000-sf space was designed by Gensler and resides in a 400,000-sf suburban office building.
The contemporary space includes a conference center, attorney offices, and support operations on the first floor. The second floor houses a work café/event area, additional offices, and administrative workspace. Bright accents of green and orange throughout the café and support areas juxtapose the subdued color palette of the workspaces. A glass and tile staircase connects the first and second floors.
The partner offices are approximately 150 sf and have full glass office fronts for light and transparency. The new headquarters space has two entrances: a first-floor visitors’ lobby entrance that incorporates a centralized conference center and hospitality area, and a second-floor entrance for employees that leads to a work café.
Mountain Development Corp. and Square Mile Capital own the building.
