Piercy&Company

London-based Piercy&Company crafts commercial and adaptive reuse architecture characterized by precise urban sightlines, retained historic masonry juxtaposed with glazed structural grids, and modular interior spaces softened by diffused light. The portfolio provides a strong reference when detailing the structural junction between legacy masonry and contemporary glazed entrances, or when designing modular interior millwork within open-plan workspace and cultural environments.

Interiors projects

An interior precedent for custom floor-to-ceiling timber shelving punctuated by striking vertical structural accents, suitable for libraries and study spaces.

What we like about this project
Vertical red members neatly divide the expansive book wall into distinct structural modules.

Geometry
Grid of orthogonal timber shelving bays divided by prominent vertical red columns.
Structural guess
Timber shelving supported by vertical steel or timber columns
Spatial scale
Human-scale shelving wall extending from floor to ceiling, approximately three meters high.
Lighting
Even diffused interior illumination, highlighting book spines and shelving joinery.
Atmosphere
Calm, intellectual, and tactile space dominated by paper textures and warm wood.
Environmental context
Indoor library or reading room setting.
Spatial experience
Intimate interaction with a dense, wall-to-wall library display that frames human scale against vast book collections.
Composition rhythm
Strict vertical and horizontal grid rhythm interrupted by the asymmetrical placement of the human figure.
Style reading
Contemporary tailored architectural joinery
Program
Library / bookstore / residential study
