Interior architecture and design services for Vuori’s new 133,000 SF headquarters, blending clean, neutral aesthetics with functional creativity. The two-building campus includes collaboration zones, private offices, product development areas, a large welcoming lobby and a central breezeway that acts as the main interlacing component between all departments, amenities and buildings. Our team led visioning, programming, and test fitting, ensuring seamless integration between the strategic reuse of architectural elements and clean, modern materials.
Vuori’s main focus for their new headquarters was the integration of multi departmental cross-over through primary gathering hubs. The company’s intent was to bring back together two main buildings and remote workers into one unified campus, to encourage collaboration and creativity. Our design team not only emphasized Vuori’s brand and culture through implementation of their already strong design language within retail locations but also focused on creating a soft and welcoming space featuring textural finishes such as plasters, white oak wood tones and textiles that would serve as a background for their creative teams to use as a canvas.
Ware Malcomb initiated the design process with visioning and programming services, through which the firm gained a deep understanding of Vuoris’ brand identity, goals and expectations. This programmatic information was soon after translated into a test fit that ensured the design would meet Vuori’s functional, spatial and creative needs. Collaboration and creative sessions between Ware Malcomb, Vuori’s leadership and designers were key components throughout the design and construction process to encapsulate the brand’s core identity.
The headquarters brings over 500 employees together in a cohesive environment that supports teamwork, innovation, and brand development. The thoughtfully designed workstations and open collaboration zones encourage collaboration and spontaneous brainstorming sessions, while the serene aesthetics and inspiring surroundings reflect the Vuori coastal California lifestyle brand. The neutral design palette allows Vuori’s vibrant apparel to stand out, while natural light and airy layouts including open loft workstations and large sliding doors encourage well-being and creativity. The large double ceiling height lobby with stadium seating serve as an active gathering space for yoga classes, breathwork, and teambuilding to bring a sense of mental and physical health into the workspace.
