  • New Twitter Headquarters in San Francisco
    We've seen the inside of several funky corporate offices, including <a href="http://inhabitat.com/google-employees-in-zurich-zooglers-have-the-worlds-coolest-re-purposed-office/">Google</a> and Facebook, but Twitter might have outdone them all with their new green-roofed headquarters in San Francisco. Part of the city's plan to revitalize a seedy neighborhood, Twitter was given a tax reprieve for moving into the 11-story art deco office building on 10th and Market street renovated by <a href="http://www.interiorarchitects.com">Interior Architects</a> and <a href="http://www.lundbergdesign.com">Olle Lundberg Design</a>. (RMW Architects is the base building architect.) But the new headquarters for 800 employees also reflects something of a <a href="http://inhabitat.com/interview-yves-behar-on-sustainability/">sustainability ethos</a>. Hit the jump for the deets and flip through the gallery for a closer look.
