The Springline Complex in Menlo Park, California, may look like a high-end hotel, but it is a "work resort." On its website, the creators indicate they designed an "engaging destination where people are coming together to connect, collaborate, create, relax and play. We've poured over every detail to create a place that draws you in and offers an ongoing sense of place, inspiration and community." The office offers fountains, "lush landscaping," and "seating areas styled like an outdoor living room." It provides an event calendar, a gym, food options, and other ways to come together. According to the New York Times, this type of work environment is popping up all over the world.
