Facebook Headquarters Interior Design by Studio O+A

A new headquarters office for Facebook in Palo Alto, California have been designed by San Francisco based interior design firm Studio O+A. A new headquarters that facilitates interaction and connection, reflecting the company’s mission as a social networking website provider.

Formerly a laboratory facility for high-tech manufacturer Agilent Technologies, the 150,000-square-foot structure at Palo Alto’s Stanford Research Park brings together more than 700 employees originally scattered throughout 10 locations in and around downtown Palo Alto.



The design of the space relied heavily on input from the users, appropriate for a flatly structured company that weights every employee’s opinion equally. O+A designers interviewed employees about what they wanted from their new headquarters.



The Facebook platform was used to conduct company-wide polls about design decisions, post construction photos and updates, and keep everyone informed of the thought process behind the project. An advisory board of employees from every department collaborated with the design team on the design process, from space planning to finishes to final move coordination.



Because the new facility houses employees coming from various locations, the company wanted to maintain each division’s distinct identity. The design takes its inspiration from the patchwork nature of Facebook users and employees, bringing together seemingly disparate elements to form a cohesive pattern and using color and interior spacing to create neighborhoods within the open plan space.



The company’s executives sit in central areas, accessible to all employees. Large lounges and open spaces provide venues for the community to come together. A kitchen and café continue Facebook’s tradition of providing gourmet meals to staff at all hours, while drinks and snacks are available at micro-kitchens throughout the headquarters.



Reflecting employees’ desire for a green headquarters, the facility is the first commercial project completed under Palo Alto’s 2008 Green Building Ordinance, making extensive use of existing architectural features, recycling millwork from the original lab, and repurposing industrial components for post-industrial use. Other sustainable features include high recycled-content carpet and energyefficient lighting.



The design goal for the new facility was to maintain the history and raw aesthetic of the building and create a fun dynamic appropriate for the company’s youthful staff. Many walls and spaces are left unfinished: employees are encouraged to write on the walls, add artwork, and move furniture as needed, allowing the building to evolve continuously.

Automotive Showroom and Leisure Centre by Manuelle Gautrand Architecture

This beautiful car showroom and leisure centre is an architectural project designed by French architects Manuelle Gautrand Architecture located in Cairo, Egypt. This modern architectural design structure is based on a series of connecting circles and spherical cavities.

“The intersection between them creates all the circulations, atriums, and visual perspectives through the whole building,” says the architects.



This automotive showroom and leisure centre is made of concrete, the building will be made up of identical modules which can be added together to form larger showrooms.

The program is a mixed-use one, with show rooms dedicated to several car brands, and also a lot of common facilities, around leisure: several cafés, a food court, a media park, two cinemas. The richness of this program is very interesting; with the potential of giving a vibrant place of attraction to the new district Allegria.

The UN-PRIVATE Apartment Interior by HARIRI & HARIRI

Gisue Hariri and Mojgan Hariri have designed this UN-Private apartment interior design. "To live with the artwork all around them, the home had to be designed around the artwork." So goes the grand idea behind the design of these two adjoining New York apartments located in a 1971 tower halfway across town from Museum of Modern Art. The Hariri sisters (of Hariri & Hariri—Architecture) are responsible for putting together the works of Damien Hirst, Phillipe Starck and Shirin Neshat in the same home harmoniously.



Given the International Style building's rigid structural grid and 9-foot ceilings, the overall openness is all the more impressive. The apartment may have been conceived as a gallery for contemporary art, however the result is child-friendly, practical, and tactile. Frosted-glass partitions—most are actually sliding doors—admit sunshine while maintaining privacy. Light fixtures are effective yet well hidden.

Copenhagen Penthouse Interior Ideas by NORM Architects

“We tore down a substantial part of the concrete walls and cut all doors open to the ceilings, in order to create an open plan and increase the feeling of height. To increase the feeling of one space a white resin floor was cast to connect all the rooms. To divide the living areas from the bathroom a core was constructed, containing cupboards, fridge, etc., to one side and a flat screen to the other.

The core was painted in a mat black color to contrast the white walls, floors and ceilings. Underneath the black core we installed hidden lighting to give it a hovering feel and a sense of lightness.”
