Financial services firm Rockefeller Capital Management was established in 2018 as a relaunch of John D. Rockefeller’s family office. With the formation of the new firm came the architectural challenge of creating a new office space that would express the company’s vision for its future and commitment to innovation and excellence, while evoking the prestige and history of the family name.

The design of the project sought to

• Create a space that embodies the new firm’s vision and helps establish its unique identity within Rockefeller Center.

• Tie the existing building context with the new architecture, bringing elements of modern sophistication into an industrial backdrop.

• Introduce a 95% open concept meant to enhance cross-collaboration, communication, and connections within the office.
