Recently, Twitter moved into a much larger office space in San Francisco, California. Aren’t you curious to see what it looks like? Several employees have taken pictures to show you. Bonus points go to the readers who can spot some familiar Twitter-esque imagery.

Some of the space seems depressing while other portions are very refreshing. I like the birds. Thanks for the inside scoop on Twitter offices!
Best,

Jaime, do you know who made the tree clock? I forgot from who it is.

YES it is from a post 2 years ago – but the answer is that the Cuckoo Clock pictured in the Twitter office was purchased at a cool independent design shop in San Francisco – ATYS. http://www.atysdesign.com. They are in the Cow Hallow area hidden in a little courtyard. AMAZING products.

Hey Kim, yes — it’s available through momentoitalia

I agree with Cococozy-I’m sure the reception area looks better in real life.

i’m amazed ! twitter got the most boring office ever…. if comparing it to google offices it will be called hell :) sorry but i’m not impressed at all.
as a revolutionary medium twitter offices should enforce the feeling of creativity and freedom.
think about an interactive spaces changing all day long the same like twitting….

What a missed opportunity at creating spaces that could challenge the notion of socializing and work/office environments. My architecture and interior designer colleagues would be appalled at people calling this design. Maybe this should be called DIY decorating. What happened to rigorous design concepts and solutions? Putting silhouettes of birds on a wall does not cut it for me in regards to making an unique identity, space, and experience. This is the problem with design and architecture today. Lack of rigorous ideas and visions of how people will work, live and play. It’s unfortunate the people behind Twitter didn’t take this design problem seriously.

Overall good, but not great. I personally think it pales in comparison with Facebook’s office, but it is definitely not diatribe-worthy (OV). Twitter doesn’t have the following or resources of Facebook, so it should come as no surprise that their workspace reflects that; however, I expected more. Twitter is definitely on the ups, though!
