01 UBER OFFICE

Location: Guayaquil, Ecuador

Spring 2019

Uber’s new workplace in Guayaquil, takes place on the top floor of an existing building. The interior was polished to take advantage of the texture of the existing concrete walls and the ceiling was removed exposing existing pipes and wires, giving the whole office an industrial style. Steel is featured prevalently in the space, especially found in the detailing on the many custom furniture pieces and existing beams.

The company ethos and brand are carried throughout the space by incorporating their corporate identity colors, graphic prints, and raw materials as specified in their global design guidelines. These prints were strategically placed to bring a vibrant, bright, and playful feel.

The design of the new office wishes to bring people together by offering spaces to connect people like breakout rooms, open workstations, and conference rooms.
