The Top 10 Most Searched Office Designs

Why do big brands have the best offices in the world?

Big brand companies have the best offices in the world because they view workplace design as a major strategic asset. Whether it’s to attract and retain the best talent, impress clients, communicate ambition or reinforce global reputation, office space can be leveraged as a competitive advantage – not just a perk or functional necessity. High-quality workspace signals stability and cultural clarity. And it can strengthen productivity by blending ergonomics, technology, wellbeing and hospitality‑level comfort.

Big brands also have the best offices because they have global budgets and long‑term real‑estate commitments, with the resources to invest in architecture, sustainability and bespoke craftsmanship that smaller firms simply cannot match. Above all, their offices become physical expressions of identity, underscoring brand values to drive engagement with key stakeholders.

Top 10

Looking to enhance employee engagement and workplace performance, many companies have recently redeveloped and revamped their office spaces. Here, WRKPLC looks at the UK’s 13 coolest office spaces of 2025. 

1/ Google’s Bay View Campus

Google’s Bay View Campus is a sweeping, canopy‑roofed workplace on the eastern edge of Mountain View, California, overlooking the wetlands near the San Francisco Bay. The first campus the tech giant has built from scratch in its 20-year history, Bay View sits on a 42-acre site boasting the largest geothermal installation in North America. The building was designed to maximise daylight, natural ventilation and flexible team spaces. Its dragon‑scale solar skin powers the site, while elevated paths and restored habitats weave technology, ecology and human movement into a spacious, landscape‑driven environment.

Key project info

• Size: 1.1 million SQ FT
• Location: California, USA
• Sector: Technology
• Standout feature: Dragon-scale solar roof/canopy
• Office designer: Bjarke Ingels and Thomas Heatherwick

WRKPLC’s verdict

As you’d expect, Google’s Bay View Campus is a truly stunning development. The solar canopy is a remarkable feat of design and engineering and one of the site’s showstopping features. With 40% of the campus’s energy coming from the overlapping dragon-scale tiles, it’s a major sustainability gain, while the rest of the campus is fully electric and net-water-positive. We also love the interior, which is flooded with natural light and comprised of vast, open-plan spaces, promoting a sense of wellbeing and calm.

2/ Apple Park

Apple Park is Apple’s circular, ultra‑sustainable campus and HQ in Cupertino, California. The vision of founder Steve Jobs, the building’s 2.8‑million‑square‑foot ‘ring’ is wrapped in the largest panels of curved glass ever made. It blends precision engineering with Californian landscape. The building itself ‘breathes’ through natural ventilation, meaning there’s no need for heating or air conditioning for most of the year. And with the roof covered in solar panels, the campus runs entirely on renewable energy, making it one of the most energy-efficient buildings in the world. Set within orchards and meadows, Apple Park functions as a serene, high‑tech environment that dissolves boundaries between architecture, nature and collaborative work

Apple Park is quite simply one of the most remarkable corporate centres ever built. We were particularly impressed with the wealth of greenspace inside the ring, which encompasses an orchard, meadow and large pond, plus grassy fields and over 9,000 native and drought-resistant trees. There’s two miles of walking paths and running tracks, a fitness centre and a 1,000-seat auditorium – quite remarkable facilities and experiences for Apple Park’s 12,000 employees.

For example, the reception desk, which is one massive LEGO brick; the wall-mounted LEGO figures, representing real people; and the huge botanical green wall made entirely from LEGO plants and flowers. It’s typical of the brand’s creativity and playfulness.

Its architecture mirrors Williams’ power and precision, blending sculptural forms, sustainable materials and collaborative workspaces.
