The new St Petersburg office of Yandex, the largest search engine in Russia, was designed by Za Bor Architects. As a rapidly growing organization,Yandex wished to impress its visitors to their new redesigned office, a long corridor like space in a 1970s building.
Familiar computer symbols are used for shelves, cupboards and separations and employees work amongst giant cursors, pixels and arrows throughout the various sections of the 200m long space. Visitors are welcomed at a desk resembling a text box and even the iconic Pacman is represented within the decor.
This unique office space, which is a 24/7 operation, is fully equipped for the comfort of its employees with recreational zones, a gym, cafeteria and lounge areas for the fortunate people who work in this excitingly different, colourful environment.
