SM&W Contribution
Shen Milsom & Wilke (SM&W) provided acoustical consulting services for WilmerHale’s new San Francisco Office. WilmerHale is a leading international law firm with more than 1,100 lawyers throughout 12 offices. The new office was designed by LSM Architects. It is comprised of two floors, tenant improvement included multipurpose room, workstations, review rooms, conference rooms, private offices, and amenity spaces.
Special considerations for upgraded mechanical equipment provided unique design challenges. Mechanical rooms located at the floor above required cost-effective noise mitigation measures during a very tight schedule. SM&W acoustical consulting provided sound isolation design between acoustically sensitive spaces, and mechanical, electrical, and plumbing noise and vibration control.
Interior finishes included exposed concrete and acoustical finishes to provide sonic balance with visual aesthetics. The sleek design provided WilmerHale with an updated modern office. SM&W’s project scope spanned design development, construction documents, and construction administration for the tenant improvement scope.
