If you've ever wondered what Google's offices look like, now you can get a glimpse into the Google Engineering headquarters in London. The new office has received a cool and contemporary interior design from upcoming architecture and interior design brand Penson.
Penson has infused the Google Engineering headquarters with cool design elements and a futuristic aesthetic, with vibrant glowing hallways and pristine white rooms. The design includes everything from gaming rooms and music studios to a coffee lab -- which is made of compressed sheets of spent fresh coffee shavings, according to the designers -- and flight pods. The flight pods, innovative lounge areas and meeting spaces, were actually invented by Penson specifically for Google. What's more, most of the walls at the Google Engineering headquarters are made with magnetic white board laminates, giving the space a glossy look and enabling the engineers to write or draw wherever they are.
