Peloton is one of the world’s leading companies in the field of connected fitness and wellness, combining high-quality fitness equipment with digital training experiences and a global community of millions of members. This focus on exercise, wellbeing and connection is also reflected in the design of the working environment in Bentonville, Arkansas.
The office has been designed to encourage collaboration, focused work and informal interaction, combining open-plan workspaces with meeting rooms and communal areas. Warm materials, carefully selected colours and an inviting architectural style create an environment that encourages interaction whilst providing comfortable workspaces.
The lighting concept is based on various versions of the ‘Beam Me Up’ luminaire family. Throughout the open-plan office area and circulation spaces, pendant luminaires with white housings and gold reflectors provide pleasant general lighting whilst lending warmth and depth to the ceiling design. The metallic reflector adds a subtle visual accent and contributes to the calm, harmonious character of the interior.
Above the conference table and the communal kitchen island, bespoke ‘Beam Me Up’ pendant luminaires with black exteriors and golden interiors become striking architectural features. Their two-tone finish gives these meeting points a distinct identity and naturally draws attention to the places where colleagues meet, exchange ideas and socialise. The luminaires not only serve as decorative elements but also emphasise the spatial hierarchy and reinforce the character of the communal areas.
With its distinctive conical shape, ‘Beam Me Up’ reinterprets the familiar pendant luminaire through a sophisticated, contemporary design language. The consistent use of the luminaire family, combined with project-specific finishes, creates visual continuity throughout the workplace whilst doing justice to the individual character of each room. Here, bespoke colours are more than just a design detail. They become an integral part of the architecture and support wayfinding, the atmosphere and a unified spatial identity.
