Worksite Design: Facebook (temporary) HQ

from Reuters:

...... The old HP research facility was refurbished for comfort, not for luxury. Facebook tore out a sea of cubicles to reveal wide open spaces for desks and oversized terminals. Nearly everyone sits there, including all company executives.

The result is something like a dream college dorm, with good food available throughout the day in a cafeteria. .......

Privacy is afforded in meeting rooms, some with names that are mashups of video games and condiments, like Donkey Kong Chutney and Guitartar Hero.......

Facebook has 700 employees in the building and another 200 in other cities. It will stay in its new home for a few years, until Stanford — which owns the land — wants it back.
