Adidas Group AG

Dubai, U.A.E.
A Running Theme of Fitness

The new offices and showroom space for adidas needed to represent the office of the future—designed to enhance productivity, improve communication, focus on health and well-being of staff, and anticipate future head count. Our client asked us to design a space to embody ambition, performance, innovation, technology, sustainability, and collaboration. The office needed to be more than an office, it needed to be a community. So, we set out to create a place that helps people perform better, play better, feel better, break records, set trends, and make history—every day, and all over the world.

The Hip Hop corner inspired by the “Originals” brand theme with adidas’ line of headphones, means that Adi-citizens can work away while listening to music. The backdrop is a graffiti wall with lyrics from the “My Adidas” Run DMC song and the actual original record is encased.
