# Cycle-In Offices Studio RHE Designed This Building with Bike Ramps for Cycling Straight into Work By Cadhla Gray | Published 2015-09-16 | Updated 2015-09-18 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bike-ramps References: [dezeen](http://www.dezeen.com/2015/09/16/studio-rhe-alphabeta-london-finsbury-circus-first-cycle-in-office/) & [studiorhe](http://www.studiorhe.com/) Encouraging commuters to cycle to work, this refurbished office building includes bike ramps that allow cyclists to roll right into the office. Designed by [Studio RHE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-barn-1), the office features yellow and black striped ramps that connect the outdoor bike path to the basement of the building. The bike ramps roll riders straight into a storage space where bicycles can be parked. The space is outfitted with change rooms and lockers as well. Hailed as London's first "cycle-in office," this design makes biking to work easier and faster than ever. The entire building is suited for shared work and social space, including a nine-storey glazed atrium at its heart. With things like bike parking spaces, a bike lift and repair shop in an apartment building designed by [Foster + Partners](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/50-electric-boulevard), bike-friendly buildings are on the rise. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 63% | Activity: 48% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) > [Eco Architecture](https://www.trendhunter.com/ecoarchitecture) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Bike-friendly Buildings:** Designing office buildings with dedicated bike ramps, storage spaces, and repair shops provides a disruptive opportunity to promote a more eco-friendly mode of transportation. - **Communal Workspaces:** Creating shared work and social spaces within office buildings is a disruptive innovation that promotes collaboration and a sense of community among employees. - **Micro-mobility Solutions:** Integrating micro-mobility solutions such as bike ramps and storage spaces into buildings provides a disruptive opportunity to improve accessibility and encourage the use of sustainable transportation modes. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Real Estate:** Developing bike-friendly buildings is a disruptive innovation that can provide a competitive edge and attract environmentally conscious clients in the real estate industry. - **Transportation:** Integrating micro-mobility solutions into buildings is a disruptive innovation that has the potential to transform the transportation industry and promote more sustainable modes of transportation. - **Architecture and Design:** The trend towards bike-friendly buildings and communal workspaces presents a disruptive opportunity for architects and interior designers to create innovative and sustainable spaces that promote collaboration and well-being. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Office-Friendly Electric Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tatamel-bike.md) - [Sleek Bicycle Store Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bicycle-store.md) - [Dynamic Skateable Architecture Stores](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vans-west-end.md) - [Underwater Bicycle Parks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ijboulevard.md) - [Sloped Timber Skate Ramps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rampitecture.md) - [Workstation-Equipped Electric Bikes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buck-bike.md) - [Curved London Office Buildings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/50-electric-boulevard.md) - [Bright Colorful Workshop Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/office-sm.md) - [London-Inspired Vibrant Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/area-office.md)
