In today's fast-paced urban world, the concept of workspace design is rapidly evolving. As leading global companies like L'Oréal seek to create inspiring environments that balance privacy, collaboration, and aesthetics, UVO's modular space solutions are redefining how professionals connect with their surroundings.
This project, “Riverside Multifunctional Space,” is situated on a vibrant riverside and showcases how architecture, technology, and human-centered design can seamlessly blend to create a multi-dimensional, multifunctional sanctuary within a modern office environment.
A combination of tranquility and refinement
River views , a bustling city skyline , and quiet private retreats —three elements that rarely coexist—are perfectly integrated in this hotel's space.
Employees and visitors can temporarily escape the stresses of daily life, clear their minds, and rekindle their creativity.
According to CBRE's 2024 Global Workplace Survey , 68% of professionals say that a calm environment can significantly improve creativity and mental health. The Riverside project perfectly embodies this principle, offering not only an inspiring landscape but also a tranquil haven in the heart of the city.
Modular concept: Changing productivity in 6 square meters
UVO's modular design philosophy centers on adaptability and efficiency.
This 6-square-meter multi-functional pod offers everything in one place —from phone booths and private offices to meeting spaces—allowing for seamless transitions between work modes without leaving the office environment.
Each Pod is equipped with advanced sound insulation , ensuring absolute privacy for conversations and deep work. According to the Gensler Workplace Performance Index , noise interference is the number one obstacle to productivity in open-plan offices. By integrating high-performance acoustic materials, UVO's solution directly addresses this challenge, providing employees with a quiet, focused sanctuary.
Color Language: Multi-zone, Multi-emotional Design
The riverside project introduced an innovative color-coded zoning strategy :
Gray, blue, green, purple, and orange zones – each zone is designed with a unique emotional narrative.
-
🩶Gray Zone: Simple, Neutral, Professional - Suitable for focused work.
-
💙The blue area represents calmness and composure, supporting analytical thinking.
-
💚Green Zone: Fresh and Natural - Inspires Renewal and Creativity.
-
💜Purple area: Elegant and thoughtful - perfect for strategic discussions.
-
🧡Orange area: Full of energy and vitality - promotes collaboration.
This thoughtful application of color psychology was supported by the University of Texas Center for Environmental Design Research, which found that the proper use of color in the environment can increase workplace satisfaction by up to 30% .
Each space in the project is an independent module , ensuring complete privacy and acoustic integrity , while the language of color enhances the mood and purpose.
Privacy, well-being, and human-centered design
Each unit operates as a completely independent unit, providing complete privacy and sound insulation.
Employees can focus, collaborate, or relax without distractions—a fundamental element of today's hybrid work culture.
A Harvard Business Review study (2023) confirmed that employees with access to private areas were 31% more productive and 24% less likely to experience stress-induced fatigue.
By implementing UVO's modular design, companies like L'Oréal demonstrate their commitment to creating inclusive and adaptable work environments that enhance performance, productivity, and well-being.
Beyond Functionality: Space for the Future
What makes this project unique is its scalability and sustainability .
Modular design minimizes construction waste and downtime, enabling rapid installation, relocation, and expansion.
All materials meet low VOC environmental standards, contributing to improved indoor air quality and environmental responsibility.
The Riverside project is more than just an office upgrade; it's a vision for the future of work , blending technology, flexibility, and human comfort to create an inspiring and relaxing experience.
