Fuhu – El Segundo Offices
Kamus + Keller Interiors | Architecture have created a new office space for software company Fuhu located in El Segundo, California.
Topping the Inc. 500 list for two years in a row, Fuhu, creator of nabi, has grown at an astonishing rate, handily outpacing some of the giant competitors in their industry. To accommodate such rapid growth, Kamus+Keller was tasked with transforming their new 17,500 square foot space on a $2.25/sf design budget, keenly balancing function and style that reinforce Fuhu’s brand value to “keep it simple and fun”.
Employees are present throughout the office 24/7, so creating an environment emphasizing health, home and comfort was of paramount importance. Cozy niche seating and warm wood accents encourage workplace relaxation; a modern gym allows staff to relieve stress and energize body and mind; the grand, contemporary kitchen and breakroom are consistently stocked with free food and drinks for busy employees, with ample seating and large‐screen televisions that help foster socialization and camaraderie.
The operational spaces are a harmonious blend of the practical – clean, modern workstations and contemporary lighting – and the whimsical – bold pops of lime green and red brand colors, large‐scale inspirational wall graphics, concrete floors and exposed, industrial‐style ceilings. As a result, Fuhu’s headquarters reflect an innovative juxtaposition of the company’s buoyant company culture and aggressive business expansion.
