Text description provided by the architects. One of Europe’s leading interior design and architecture studios PENSON has delivered Google’s new super HQ at Central Saint Giles, Covent Garden, London. The 160,000sq.ft HQ covers an amazing variation of floors including the Main Reception, a Lala Library, Gymnasium, Cafés & Restaurants, a Town Hall and many other trinkets all with long reaching panoramic views of London’s skyscape. It’s simply awesome.

CSG使谷歌的销售部门和其他部门更接近他们的客户。这个内部与彭森最近在维多利亚发布的谷歌工程总部(Google Engineering HQ)的另一个版本截然相反,后者在全球引发了相当大的轰动,因为它与这个世界的“太空漫游”和“星际企业”(Starship Enterprise‘s)有关的视觉事件。CSG是伦敦乡屋的混合版本,有毛茸茸的起居室或奶奶平铺的地板,顶部有屋顶花园。
CSG brings Google’s sales and other departments nearer to their clients. This interior is at the opposite end of the spectrum to PENSON’s other recent release of the Google Engineering HQ at Victoria, which incidentally caused quite a stir globally for its visual affair with the “Space Odyssey’s” and “Starship Enterprise’s” of this world. CSG is a hybrid version of a London Townhouse, with things like woolly living rooms or granny flat floors with roof top gardens at its pinnacle.

通过非常精明的变革管理和彭森的战略性工作场所精神,高度商业化的统计数字已经实现。有1250张桌子
Through very shrewd change management and PENSON’s strategic workplace ethos, highly commercial headcount statistics have been achieved. There are 1250 desks & 1250 meeting chairs or collaboration seats, within a floor area that is no different to any other. Whilst walking through PENSON’s workplace inventions such as Secret Gardens, Allotments, Google Green, Google Park & Grannies Flat, you realise that these shrewd commercials are beautifully disguised. Effectively PENSON has developed a master-piece of cohesion between visual fun, unique un-themed concepts and commercialism that other organisations should look at very closely indeed.

下一步的天才是,这个计划没有涉及到大量的开支,因为智能使用的材料和出色的利用空间的贡献很大的整体影响。这种方法,再加上特殊的优先支出,如定制的潜艇式“噪音-密闭”门,“不要转向开放”,带来了一个轻松的古怪的大溅。这个空间也是“生态大”的。这是几个钉住LEED白金。它使用了非常高含量的再生或回收材料,效果很好,符合谷歌自己的“红色清单”,该名单高度调整,通过使用许多基于水的产品来去除材料中的所有有害成分。这个地方甚至闻起来很健康。木地板,与生态胶合板周长和牙齿汇聚地板完成在一起将老化随着时间,这是另一个精明的方面表明,彭森已指定的空间,以改善随着年龄的增长,并使用它自己的髌骨。
The next touch of genius is that this scheme hasn’t involved a massive spend since intelligent use of materials and the excellent use of space contributes heavily towards the overall impact. This approach, combined with special touches of prioritised spending such as the bespoke submarine type “noise-tight” doors with “Do Not Turn to Open”, bring a big splash of light-hearted quirkiness. The space is “eco-massive” too. It is a few pegs short of LEED Platinum. It uses a very high content of reclaimed or recycled materials to great effect and complies with Google’s own Red List, which is highly tuned towards removing all of the nasty ingredients in materials through the use of many water based products. The space even smells healthy. Timber floor boards, with Eco plywood perimeters and tooth converging floor finishes together will age with time, which is another shrewd aspect showing that PENSON has specified the space to improve with age and use to develop its own patina.

分配款是我们以前在办公室里从未听说过的东西。尤其是在九楼。然而,这些都是小迷你浴缸,由认证的IPE木材制成,这将从深而丰富的颜色老化到银色的免费完成时间。谷歌员工已将自己的名字列入等候名单,以获得分配。规则是规则,所以如果有人不维持他们的分配,他们将被删除,下一个人在等待名单上得到他们的机会。它辉煌地使用根,蔬菜和草药作为过去的工作时间,同时协助内部合作。我们想知道,谁将赢得今年最大的骨髓竞赛?
The allotments are something that we’ve not heard of before in offices. Well, especially on a ninth floor level. However these are little mini tubs, made from certified IPE timber which will age from a deep rich colour to a silvery maintenance free finish in time. Googlers have put their name onto a waiting list to get their allotment. Rules are rules, so if someone doesn’t maintain their allotment they will be removed and the next person on the waiting list gets their chance. Its brilliant using root vegetables and herbs as a past-time at work whilst aiding internal collaboration. Who will win this year’s largest marrow contest we wonder?

秘密花园也很棒。这些都是被太阳困住的阳台空间中的小私人展位,为这些广告创造了一个独特的外观,但却是座无虚席的区域。这些展位可以容纳一到四名谷歌员工,他们有一个真正的盒子、篱笆墙,以创造隐私,并充当挡风遮阳的角色。谷歌员工将在谷歌无线笔记本电脑上竞争这一领域的工作。
The Secret Gardens are also amazing. These are little private booths in a sun trapped balcony space, which create a special looking, yet densely seated area for those commercials. The booths seat one to four Googlers with a real box hedge wall to create privacy and to act as a wind/sun shield. Googlers will be competing to work in this space on their laptops on Google’s wireless.

秘密花园从主咖啡厅通过隐蔽的小花园大门进入。他们还连接到谷歌公园,这是一个巨大的花园区,也在一个遮阳阳台上。这家咖啡馆看起来又是非商业性的;它从上面通过水基油漆吸进了天蓝色到天花板,从外面的公园里吸进了阳光和有趣的气氛。它采用了一种“奶奶公寓”的复古风格,在伦敦的背景下,被真正的树篱所包围。这是个很棒的空间。当然,旅程还在继续。谷歌绿色是一个内部空间,可以俯瞰整个秘密花园,并与咖啡厅、市政厅和小的办公区域相连。这一空间是灵活的,因为它可以用于“所有的手”会议,一对一的懒散在凉爽的莫罗索沙发,或可用于招待大批市民,同时在他们的午餐或咖啡休息时间。灵活性也是这个空间全面揭示的东西。
The Secret Gardens are accessed from the main café space through little concealed garden gates. They also connect with Google Park, which is a huge garden area also on a sun-trapped balcony. The café again looks non-commercial; it sucks in sky blue from above via water based paint to ceilings, draws in light and fun atmospheres from the park outside. It adopts a kind of “granny flat” retro, come dated feel which is surrounded by real hedge against the backdrop of London. It’s a fantastic space. Of course the journey continues. The Google Green is an interior space which looks out across the Secret Gardens and joins the café, Town hall and small desking area. This space is flexible, as it can be used for “All Hands” meetings, one-to-one slouching in cool Moroso couches, or can be used to entertain large groups of Town Hall guests whilst on their lunch or coffee breaks. Flexibility is also something that this space reveals across the board.

市政厅有能力展示200名客人在一个全天鹅绒窗帘大厅,开放的暴露天花板,一个巨大的视频墙,惊人的音响和高保真功能。这一空间已放置在中心的地板,连接到主要接待与画廊的艺术作品和小饰品。闪闪发光的墙壁,溅起巨大的联盟杰克也有助于庆祝英国,同时增加了一个经济的完成,看起来很神奇,而水为基础。体育馆南面有一些最好的风景,提供非常奇特的淋浴、换洗和按摩设施,配备凉爽的自行车,为自行车提供空中悬挂空间,并为返回通勤提供干燥的空间。这项发明也被证明是非常受欢迎的。一个舞蹈工作室不仅有助于灵活性,而且还有助于谷歌员工在工作中的健康和健身。淋浴块是用一种令人难以置信的明亮的橙色油漆,它敲打你的一巴掌的能量。
The Town hall has a capacity to showcase two hundred guests in a fully velvet curtained hall, with open exposed ceilings, a massive Video Wall, amazing acoustics and hi-fi capabilities. This space has been placed in the heart of the floor connecting to the Main Reception with a gallery of artwork and trinkets. Glittery walls splashing huge Union Jacks also help to celebrate the UK whilst adding an economical finish that looks amazing whilst being water based. The Gymnasium has some of the best views across to the south, and provides very quirky shower, change and massage facilities, with a cool Bikedry which provides hanging space for bike gear to air and dry for one’s return commute. This invention has also proved highly popular. A dance studio not only assists in flexibility but also in Googlers health and fitness at work. The shower block is painted in an incredible illuminous orange paint that whacks you with a slap of energy.
