The JUMO Darkside Office Interior Design is the third installment in our ongoing collaboration with this pioneering fintech client. While the previous offices embraced brightness and open energy, this space explores a more dramatic, immersive concept—a galaxy-inspired office experience rooted in bold design and futuristic function.
Our goal for this JUMO Darkside Office Interior Design was to create an otherworldly workspace that reflects depth, innovation, and growth.
To achieve this, we introduced:
Custom meeting pods that feel like futuristic capsules
Portal-style entryways to guide users between zones
A lush living wall that adds freshness and biophilic texture
A raised comms room and two smaller pods for private meetings
Open-plan workstations and informal booth areas for team flow
These elements were all designed to support JUMO’s expanding team and dynamic work culture.
The increased demand for focused and collaborative spaces gave rise to a mix of enclosed and open zones. A full-height living wall grounds the space in nature, contrasting the darker industrial finishes. Meanwhile, acoustic treatments and glass walls provide both transparency and privacy—a critical balance for hybrid collaboration.
The use of a monochromatic palette, punctuated by greenery and indirect lighting, reinforces the sleek, galactic aesthetic.
What makes this space successful is its unified design language:
The “Darkside” theme is consistent in material, light, and spatial storytelling.
Brand personality is subtly layered through form and function.
The workspace is not just beautiful—it performs.
It’s not just an office. It’s a narrative space that supports focus, flexibility, and team culture.
The JUMO Darkside Office Interior Design demonstrates how interior design can reflect company identity and inspire productivity. It’s a bold step forward for a company that’s already defining the future of finance.
