1. Iconic “Googleboxes” at Google’s Victoria office

These big red phone boxes are called “Googleboxes.” We imagine they don’t have any actual payphones inside, but the beanbags on the floor mean they could be a good place for a private call on one’s cell phone. As you can see, Google branding is a prominent design element at the Victoria office. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
2. London, England (Victoria)

Compared to Google’s Soho London workplace, the office in Victoria seems to take a more minimal approach – although it’s no less impressive. These chairs have a ‘60s feel, which is enhanced by the bright orange lamp and the coffee tables. The local flavor is also obvious. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
3. Free bumper car parking

One characteristic shared by Google offices all over the world is an element of fun. We’re guessing that the bumper car in this photograph doesn’t actually move, but Google’s Victoria employees are soon set to. In 2016, the company is planning to relocate from Victoria to King’s Cross. No doubt, the new office will be even more spectacular. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
4. London, England (Soho)

Google has three offices in London, and this is their Soho campus. Architects Penson Group (who also worked on Google’s London Victoria office) designed the 160,000-square-foot office to be both comfortable and visually inspiring. Complete with plush cushions and bright colors, parts of the office look as if they’ve taken inspiration from the ‘70s. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
5. Vault chic

It’s not all squishy pillows and comfy cushions, though. The airlock-style door and black and orange coloring give this large room a definite futuristic feel. This is where Googlers come to lift weights and keep in shape. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
6. A colorful conference space

A bright blue curtain sections off this meeting room. But aesthetics aside, the Soho offices have been designed with the environment in mind, and many of the materials used for construction were recycled or reclaimed. What’s more, the principle is still adhered to now: as you can see, the waste is separated to make recycling easy. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
7. A spacious cafeteria
After interviewing Google employees in Moscow, design firm Camenzind Evolution found that workers wanted an office that reflected the company’s values and identity with a local twist. The cafeteria, for example, took inspiration from classical Russian dining rooms, and local monks made the tiles of the buffet counters. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
8. Moscow, Russia
Here, in the Moscow office’s hub, Googlers can meet, talk and relax under an inviting-looking tree that looks straight out of a Russian fairytale. Unlike in regular offices, the lighting here is intimate and magical-seeming. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
9. Reception at the Moscow Google office
The Moscow office’s main reception area features brickwork reflective of the Kremlin. This being Google, though, it’s not all serious, and the office space also contains table tennis and video gaming spaces. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
10. A super-stylish microkitchen

Thanks to its calming green color scheme, this microkitchen seems like a relaxing place for Googlers to hang out in; in fact, it’s reminiscent of a bar. Google’s Chelsea Market office benefits more than just its employees, though, as the company has created a free WiFi zone that’s the largest in New York City. It’s a move that’s bound to have made them popular with the neighbors. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
11. New York, USA (Chelsea Market Space)

Dragging yourself to work on a Monday morning is made far more bearable at Google’s Chelsea Market Space-based office in New York City. The office includes this open lounge room, complete with a slide – which is definitely more fun than just taking the stairs. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
12. Seating area in the Water Tower Café

When it comes to lunch, employees are spoiled for choice, with five separate cafeterias. One of them is the unusual Water Tower Café, which actually looks a bit like a sauna. Yet whatever it resembles, the fact that employees can eat here for free is bound to make mealtimes more fun. (Written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
13. A “moo-ving” designer meeting room
Meanwhile, the meeting rooms all have different themes based on Swedish inventors and inventions. This one is a tribute to Gustaf de Laval, who made huge contributions to the dairy industry in the late 19th century. (Written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
14. A table tennis cafeteria
The cafeteria pictured was designed to bring people together like a traditional town square. It’s located between the engineering side of the office, which was created with rural Sweden in mind, and the sales and marketing side, which used more urban design elements. (Written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
15. Stockholm, Sweden
Google’s Stockholm office was also designed by Camenzind Evolution. Like the Tel Aviv and Moscow offices, the Stockholm headquarters reflect the values of Google both internationally and locally. Thus, many Swedish elements were included. (Written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
16. A picturesque seating area
One of the features of the Tel Aviv office that stands out is the high number of meeting spaces it contains. Almost half of the office space has been allocated to communication zones where employees can work together. That said, in this particular seating area it might be hard not to get distracted by the view. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
17. Seats with a view at the Tel Aviv office
The office is spread out over eight floors of the well-known Electra Tower. Swiss design firm Camenzind Evolution worked with Israeli design companies Setter Architects and Studio Yaron Tal to create the fabulous workspace. With the stunning ocean and city views visible from the building, the designers had to ensure that the office interior was equally impressive. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
18. Tel Aviv, Israel
Google’s Tel Aviv office opened towards the end of December 2012. Designers have drawn inspiration from nature, with lifelike trees scattered around an office that also uses the colors of the desert and the ocean. And as shown in the image, there’s enough room for a bit of fun as well. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
19. Designer fun at the Tel Aviv office

"Imagine working in an office that looks like a spaceship, or perhaps one that’s part rainforest. Just think of the ideas you could come up with while lying in a bathtub filled with foam, staring at dreamy-looking fish tanks. It may sound too good to be true, but for Google employees around the world, imaginative and unusual designer workspaces are a daily reality." (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
20. Google office in Soho, London

“What’s important is recognizing [that] people don’t necessarily work best sitting at a desk,” says Google London’s Director of Operations Matt Brittin. “Playing on the Wii or going for a run might fuel new ideas. We look after our staff so that they want to come to work.” Looking at the offices, it seems as though this is a philosophy Google takes seriously. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
21. A curtained-off conference area at the Zurich office
According to Google, “Though no two Google offices are the same, visitors to any office can expect to find a few common features: murals and decorations expressing local personality; Googlers sharing cubes, yurts and “huddles”; video games, pool tables and pianos; cafes and “microkitchens” stocked with healthy food; and good old fashioned whiteboards for spur-of-the-moment brainstorming.” But see for yourself. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
22. Meeting pods at Google’s Zurich office
Everywhere from Zurich to Tel Aviv, Google offices are great examples of work environments with a difference. Looking at these photographs, you get the impression that designers have been allowed to let their creativity run wild. They’ve managed to come up with environments that are inspirational and conducive to work, yet comfortable and inviting at the same time. It’s a far cry from the way we tend to picture the daily grind, and with such variety, there’s sure to be something for everyone. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
23. Meeting capsules at Google’s Zurich office
Before starting work on Google’s Zurich office, Camenzind Evolution interviewed the employees who would be working there. The Googlers – or Zooglers, as they’re known in Zurich – asked for practical private workspaces and fun and creative communal spaces. They also requested “enjoyable and entertaining qualities to stimulate creativity, innovation and collaboration.” (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
24. A “train carriage” conference room
This mini conference room recreates a train, complete with colorful graffiti. There are small meeting spaces like this all over the Zurich office. Some are modeled on ski resorts, others look like New York taxis, and then there are the strange alien pods. (written by: Yohani Kamarudin)
