Scooter’s Coffee, headquartered in Omaha since 1998, has experienced exponential growth in recent years, opening approximately 300 new drive-throughs each year. The company desired a new, larger space for their corporate headquarters to support this growth and showcase their brand. Scooter’s Coffee also wanted a space centralized to the heart of Omaha. This project was a complete floor tenant improvement within an existing office building. Built in the 1990s, the shell had some challenging features, such as crescent windows which would need to be incorporated, if not showcased, within our interior design.

Environmental Graphics
Employees of Scooter’s Coffee are passionate stakeholders because of their local roots and the company’s tendency to promote from within. A space which reinforced their brand through vibrant, core colors, while meeting the flexibility requirements of a post-Covid workforce were the factors driving design.
Hoteling Concepts
Space Organization
Scooter’s Coffee’s previous space had a living room concept which the employees loved and wanted to retain. From the moment visitors walk off the elevator, they are greeted with an old coffee shop vibe and welcomed into a lobby full of comfortable couches. The brand’s promise and mission are displayed as artwork. Warm tones run throughout the wood flooring inviting employees to relax. Naturally, this space also includes a full-service coffee bar, encouraging employee connections.
