GOOGLE PLEX
The Office Biosphere
The expansion of Google’s headquarters is revolutionizing the campus model and the way we think and design buildings.
On 60 acres of land, a series of modular buildings, gardens, playgrounds and other facilities will be covered by an artificial sky composed of four huge glass canopies, each stretched over steel pillars.
Below the artificial sky it will be possible to regulate the microclimate and light intensity to allow 10,000 employees to move and work in a condition similar to an open-air office. Google Plex will be open to the public and parks and squares on the ground floor enriched by shops and other business activities will be accessible to citizens.
The trend towards corporate campuses is still very present especially in big new economy companies.
