After [Adobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/firefly-boards) expanded its workforce it needed somewhere to meet this growing group of people, so Valerio Dewalt Train Associates helped the company design a space at 410 Townsend in San Francisco.

The space, like many forward-thinking companies such as [Google](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mountain-view), has rooms that allow people to collaborate and come together for sparking ideas. However, the details that make this office distinct are the [impulsive pops of color](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chameleon-workplace) found throughout. There's no real rhyme or reason for placing the hues in certain areas, but that's what works well in the workspace. Just like the ideas Adobe is hoping its employees will come up with, there's no exact time or place for inspiration, which is reflected in this color scheme. Valerio Dewalt Train Associates understood this concept perfectly when designing the Adobe office.
