United Kingdom Supreme Court

A landmark in constitutional and legal history was reached in 2009 with the creation of the UK’s new Supreme Court. And, to some extent, a landmark was created in the refurbishment of the flamboyant Edwardian architectural curiosity in Parliament Square where it now resides.

Our involvement came as a result of designing the prize-winning library for the Supreme Court in Edinburgh five years earlier.

The furniture scope included three court- rooms, a library, and the justices’ private rooms.

Court 1 is the most impressive of the new courts; all the carvings, stained- glass and decorative metal-work has been retained, revived and restored but modern desks and shelving have been designed to accommodate up to nine justices.

Court 2 is the only completely modern court, seating up to five justices.

Court 3 also seats up to five justices, and will be predominantly used for hearing cases submitted to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council from the Commonwealth.
