MENLO PARK, California: The official name of Facebook's newest Menlo Park building, MPK 21, may evoke computer jargon, but the gleaming new offices at its headquarters are anything but mundane – they offer a village where employees can gather, create and relax.
Employees have started moving into the company's new offices in a long, airy building, which features a “main street” meandering down the middle, along with office “neighbourhoods” that have sprouted off to the side. Workers can stroll on a rooftop, gather in “town squares” featuring redwood trees, or pause in a terraced area called “The Bowl” that is like a botanical garden.
