The design concept of the new 30,000-square-foot office captures the VIVEX branding and its DNA helix logo听
Leading global design firm听听has completed the interior design of听鈥檚 new headquarters in Miami, Florida. The 30,000-square-foot space for the听leading regenerative medicine company, specialized in the development of naturally sourced treatment options,听boasts modern interiors and finishes highlighted with bright green hues representing VIVEX鈥檚 brand identity. Stantec provided the interior design as well as the structural architecture for the facility expansion, which included the addition of production and research departments and administrative offices.
VIVEX is a pioneer in regenerative medicine with a mission to provide advanced medical solutions to help those suffering from musculoskeletal injuries, wounds, and burned skin. Their brand identity exemplifies their mission of health through听channeling the body鈥檚 inherent healing qualities听using clean, contemporary colors with pops of blues and vibrant greens which represent VIVEX鈥檚 innovative regenerative solutions.
鈥淲e designed a modern and elegant headquarters for VIVEX that serves as its welcome card and fosters collaboration,鈥� said Raed Alawadhi, senior designer, Stantec. 鈥淭he high-quality finishes and lively interiors radiate the unique identity of the company鈥檚 brand and encourage engagement and socialization.鈥�听
For the project interiors, splashes of VIVEX鈥檚 greens along with bright blues and yellows were dispersed against the white marble porcelain tile floors, white oak wood accents, neutral yet sophisticated corridor carpet tile, and clean white walls. The pops of colors make a statement and bring life to the open offices, executive offices, meeting rooms, employee lounge, furniture, and even the bathroom mirrors.
Upon entering the office reception, employees and visitors are welcomed by a custom, sleek reception desk that serves as a sculptural showpiece with white staggering wood slats behind it. Large green glass doors make a grand entrance and lead to the main building.听
An emphasis on human-centric design led to the flexible spaces where employees have the option to collaborate or work in private as needed. High partitions were added for the staff that required more privacy and low partitions for those who work more collaboratively.听Throughout the office, there鈥檚 a mix of large and small breakout spaces plus two large executive conference rooms with foldable partition walls that can open up to the employee lounge area.
鈥淭he main point of the flexible partitions is to have the adaptability of creating a functional space for any type of office function whether large or small,鈥� said Maureen McLaine, interior designer, Stantec. 鈥淭he high-end finishes throughout each space create a cohesive, vibrant, and sophisticated experience for whichever room size is needed.鈥�
The expansive employee lounge is an engaging space with bright-striped walls with various seating options ranging from small dining tables and bar stools to comfy sofas and playful pods. Vivid colorful tiles adorn the kitchen backsplash while a custom, white-slatted light fixture suspended over the bar continues the theme from the reception area.听An adjacent multi-purpose game room was also designed to offer employees the opportunity to relax and play ping-pong and shuffleboard.
