Friday, March 30, 2012 Jealous Much? Google Campus London's Gorgeous New Offices Is your office half as swanky as Google's new London Campus? Raw chipboard walls, industrial light-fittings and colourful cafe-style break-out areas are features of the new start-up centre. Seven stories of high design house 100 start-ups in London's Tech City, and Google hopes it will create future internet giants. A graffiti bear where ideas can be scrawled and plants that tweet when they need watering are just some of the features designed to inspire the future of London tech business at the new centre. Eze Vidra, Google's head of campus said: "Campus's goal is to create a central meeting point for London's booming tech startup community. East London is emerging as a world-leading entrepreneurial hub, and we're excited to be a part of it." Vidra said the search giant is not seeking to find firms to invest in. He told the BBC: "Google is a start-up all about technology. We don't have to get anything out of it, it's a bit of a gift to the community. Our investment is the building, and in the long run, if more people use the internet to be successful, that's great for all of us who are online." Click the photo above to see more images.
