架构师提供的文本描述。随着科技公司在空间有限的城市地区扎根，硅谷的合作精神在高层建筑和改造后的工业设施中找到了新的表达方式。我们设计Yelp的关键是一个垂直校园的概念-一个多层堆叠的包罗万象、自成一体的社区。Yelp把总部从旧金山的一个较小的地点搬到了一个典型的金融区高楼。和大多数多层住宅一样，Yelp的设计挑战是促进群体动态，让人们在不同的楼层工作也能相互交流。

Text description provided by the architects. As tech companies take root in urban locations where space is limited, the collegial spirit of Silicon Valley finds new modes of expression in high-rise buildings and converted industrial facilities. Key to our design for Yelp was the concept of a vertical campus– an all-encompassing, self-contained community stacked on multiple floors. Yelp moved its HQ from a smaller site in San Francisco to a classic Financial District high-rise. As with most multi-story occupancies, the design challenge at Yelp was to facilitate group dynamics so that people interact with each other even though they work on different floors.

换句话说，你是如何在塔楼里建立社区的？

In other words– how do you create a neighborhood in a tower?

一种方法是给每一层楼一个对所有楼层都有吸引力的目的地。在Yelp，我们在8楼放了一间设备齐全的咖啡店，5号有靠窗的休息室，11号有半私人的棋子和聊天用的豆荚。因此，每个楼层的公用区域对整个公司来说都是共同的，而不仅仅是对那些工作站占据这一水平的人而言。

One way is to give each floor a destination that will appeal to all the floors. At Yelp we placed a fully-equipped coffee shop on the 8th floor, a break room with window seating on the 5th, and semi-private pods for chess or chatting on the 11th. Each floor’s common areas thus become common to the company at large and not just to those whose workstations occupy that level.

 Floor Plan

在一个高楼的校园里，中心聚集地是垂直中心.Yelp的接待区在9楼，上面和下面还有其他部门。为了使接待值得在电梯里上下移动，OA创建了一家“普通商店”，这是对Yelp在新的商业创业世界中的地位的一种现代弹出式即兴创作。从另一个商业时代的线索，糖果在罐子里出售，招牌是在窗户上画的金叶，我们创建了一个大厅，布局的零售业务。布局，但实际上，不，功能-展出的“商品”没有一个是出售的，老式收银机在接待处严格为展示。然而，客人们可能会自食其力。

In a high-rise campus the central gathering place is vertically central. Yelp’s reception area is on the 9th floor, with other departments above and below.  To make the reception worthy of a trip up or down in the elevator, O+A created a “General Store,” a modern pop-up improvisation on Yelp’s place in the new world of commercial entrepreneurship. Taking our cues from another era of commerce when candy was sold in jars and signage was gold-leaf painted on a window, we created a lobby with the layout of a retail operation. The layout, but not, in fact, the function—none of the “merchandise” on display is for sale and the vintage cash register at the reception desk is strictly for show. Guests, however, may help themselves to the candy.

呼应这一点头过去，是在整个叶利普的整个校园的精心制作的门从原来占据该网站的办公室回收。许多这些门包括凹槽或磨砂玻璃板和门把手来自另一个时代。结合在Yelp总部每一层都普遍存在的裸露砖块，这些接触给一个坚定向前看的设计增添了历史的分量。

Echoing this nod to the past, is the placement throughout Yelp’s entire campus of finely-crafted doors reclaimed from offices that originally occupied the site. Many of these doors include fluted or frosted glass panels and door-knobs from another era. Combined with the exposed brick that is prevalent on every floor of Yelp’s HQ, these touches lend the weight of history to a design that is looking determinedly forward.

也许最平滑的新旧并列发生在咖啡吧里。砖墙和丰富的自然光的座位区给空间一个SOMA咖啡馆质感，而厨房包括最现代化的工匠热饮设施。进入酒吧储藏室和服务区是通过一扇似乎是光滑的木墙的盲门。自定义照明在这一地区是悬挂在绳固定装置单独手工编织。与当地的咖啡公司如蓝瓶和酒杯旋转咖啡师在酒吧，主题手工制作，一流的生产是重复在每一个细节的空间。正因为如此，Yelp的员工们总是有一杯免费的拿铁在他们的指尖-和一个独特的空间来喝它。

Perhaps the smoothest juxtaposition of old and new occurs in the coffee bar. The brick walls and abundant natural light of the seating area give the space a SOMA café texture, while the kitchen includes the most modern artisan hot beverage facilities. Access to the bar storage and service areas is through a blind door that appears to be a smooth, wood wall. Custom lighting in this area is suspended from rope fixtures individually hand-woven. With local coffee companies like Blue Bottle and Sightglass rotating baristas in the bar, the theme of handmade, top-quality production is repeated in every detail of the space. Because of it, Yelp’s employees will always have a free latte at their fingertips—and a unique space to drink it in.
