Why Google Is Involved In Building  Design and Construction

"Everyone knows Google for lightning fast search results, advanced technology, self-driving cars, and having fun with our logo.  Not everyone knows that our people work in buildings that are just as innovative as our technology.  Constructing buildings isn't our core business, but we apply the same focus as our products, putting users first.  The result:  we create healthy and productive work environments that inspire and energize our people"

More Freedom for Design and Construction Teams

"Google's Portico is an online resource for architects, designers and contractors to find the latest innovative healthy materials and products to specify for Google projects.  As more products and materials are entered into the database, architects and designers enjoy increasing freedom to design the most innovative, creative, productive, and healthy buildings possible."
