Celebrating iN STUDIO’s ARIDO Award Wins — and Slyde’s Role in Supporting Modern Workplace Storage

We’re proud to congratulate iN STUDIO on receiving two ARIDO Awards in the Work category for their exceptional design of Google’s 65 King St. East and Google BRT3 offices. These projects showcase what forward-thinking workplace environments can look like when architecture, function, and employee experience come together.

Slyde Innovations had the opportunity to contribute to these award-winning spaces with our TOTem and EVO modern office storage solutions, helping support the project teams’ goals for clean, flexible, and highly functional work environment

How Modern Office Storage Shapes Award-Winning Workplaces

The ARIDO Awards recognize projects that push boundaries in workplace design, and one of the driving forces behind these spaces is the need for modern office storage that keeps teams organized without sacrificing aesthetics.

In hybrid, unassigned, and activity-based workplaces, storage is no longer an afterthought—it’s core infrastructure. The right solutions help:

  • Reduce clutter

  • Support mobility

  • Strengthen clean-desk policies

  • Give employees a consistent personal storage experience

  • Maintain a refined, modern look across the floorplan

This is exactly where products like TOTem, EVO, and other modern office locker systems elevate the environment.

TOTem & EVO: Designed for the Way Teams Work Today

Our storage products were selected for these Google spaces because they deliver on several priorities that top design firms—and employees—expect from modern workplace storage.

TOTem – A Smarter Alternative to Traditional Lockers

TOTem offers a streamlined, modern approach to personal office storage. With its compact footprint and adaptable design, it supports hybrid workstyles where employees rotate through shared desks and need personal storage that moves with them.

EVO – Efficient, Durable, and Aesthetically Clean

EVO provides centralized storage that blends seamlessly into open environments. It supports everything from personal items to team equipment, helping maintain a clean, organized workspace across large floors.

Both solutions help organizations transition away from bulky traditional storage and into modern office lockers and hybrid workplace storage systems that better fit today’s office culture.

Why Storage Matters in High-Performance Offices

Award-winning workplaces aren’t just defined by lighting, material choices, or meeting rooms. The backbone of a truly functional office is storage that actually works for the people using it.

Modern office storage helps companies:

  • Keep shared spaces organized

  • Improve employee satisfaction

  • Support mobility and hybrid schedules

  • Reduce visual clutter

  • Protect personal belongings securely

As workplace design continues to evolve, storage must evolve with it—and this project is a perfect example of how thoughtful storage contributes to a successful build.

Congratulations to iN STUDIO

We’re thrilled to see iN STUDIO recognized for their exceptional work on these Google projects. Their commitment to pushing workplace design forward is clear, and we’re grateful that Slyde Innovations’ TOTem and EVO solutions could play a part in bringing these award-winning spaces to life.
