[Photos]: How Facebook's Singapore HQ encourages staff collaboration

As one of the most popular social media networking sites, Facebook believes that a connected world is a better world.

Understanding that building an open and connected world starts with having an open and connected company, Facebook made connection a priority when designing its new Singapore HQ.

"We believe that a connected world is a better world, and achieving this mission is at the core of everything we do. We understand we can’t build an open and connected world unless we build an open and connected company, and if you look at our office it has been designed with connection in mind," said Eriko Talley, head of human resources APAC at Facebook.

A piece of advice Talley has for companies looking to redesign their offices is: "Each company is different; it comes down to creating an environment where their core ideals can come to life."

In Facebook's case, collaboration is key, hence the company constantly strives to improve and evolve its offices to support an environment for people to share thoughts and concepts to give life to the best ideas.

"Our product is a core part of the way we work everyday, which helps us really know and understand one another. We’re applying the same level of innovation that we use to create products to build a culture and a company that can redefine the way work gets done."
