Uber Freight and Uber Center of Excellence

GREC ARCHITECTS | TOM HARRIS PHOTOGRAPHY

Remaking five floors of an iconic West Loop building in Chicago, Uber Freight and the latest Uber Center of Excellence have developed an environment focused on durability, efficiency and collaboration.

The two branches' brands and cultures were brought together through a unified palette and similar architectural solutions. However, there are nods to each business unit, such as steel, container-inspired walls in the freight area. In addition to workspaces for more than 800 employees, there is a game room and multiple meeting areas. The café was given special attention, as employee meals are catered daily, making the space a hub of collaboration and catching up.
