"It's kind of surreal." Office space: A vast, sun-flooded floor serves as temporary headquarters while the company builds out a trio of higher floors in the building to accommodate their ever-growing staff. The open floor plan takes collaborative workspace to a new level: Not only do all employees, including Blumenthal and Gilboa, sit at side-by-side desks, but an open-to-the-public showroom in one corner allows for a rare mix of customers and corporate employees. Decor: Styled to evoke the brand's modern-retro eyewear aesthetic, the space boasts a cultivated mix of old and new: An antique oriental rug and worn leather chairs sit atop stark concrete floors in the reception area; a smattering of vintage globes adorn employees' streamlined Parsons-style desks. Stacks of vintage books from the Strand are displayed throughout the office, in a nod to the company's name (Warby Parker is a mash-up of two Kerouac characters).
