Facebook HQ






Although I have resisted the trend to put my little tinki self on the social network site, Facebook, there are apparently 200 million plus people who couldn't resist, and hence the necessity for their 850 employees to have a beautiful and inspiring place to spend their days! Too bad I live so far away, maybe I could have gotten a job there! Still, below are the architects description of how they came to create the images seen here and what they had in mind!

  2. That was interesting. I did join Facebook because my adult kids are on it and send messages and post pictures. But I don't go to it very often because a large part of the concept totally escapes me.

  8. Lucky employees. I know they have 300 million users but I didn't think they turned a huge profit yet? Regardless, I'd work there :-)
