WeWork 1 Belvedere Dr. Co-Working Space

WeWork 1 Belvedere Dr. Co-Working Space is an innovative interior design project located in Mill Valley, California, that exemplifies the evolution of contemporary workplace design beyond traditional urban environments. Completed in March 2019, this 18,150-square-foot facility represents a sophisticated approach to collaborative workspace design, incorporating Northern California's distinctive aesthetic sensibilities and natural elements. The space is distinguished by its extensive use of white oak, a locally sourced material that appears throughout the interior in various applications including pantries, bookshelves, coffee tables, desks, and custom millwork. Drawing inspiration from architectural influences such as John Lautner and Sea Ranch homes, the design seamlessly integrates with its surrounding natural landscape while maintaining a professional atmosphere. The interior features carefully curated artwork reflecting Bay Area heritage, custom lighting solutions, and versatile spaces designed for multiple functions. The main lounge area incorporates a community bar that doubles as a reception area and can be transformed into a DJ booth for events, while the primary conference room includes soundproofing technology for its dual purpose as a performance venue. The project, which earned a Bronze A' Design Award in the Interior Space, Retail and Exhibition Design category in 2020, demonstrates exceptional attention to material selection, spatial planning, and functional versatility. The design successfully addresses the unique demographics of Mill Valley while creating an elevated professional environment that serves both as a productive workspace and an engaging event venue.
