On the westside of Lyndale Avenue, Minneapolis, next to the Midtown Greenway, you’ll find a building that’s opposite to a huge "Egg & I" billboard. It houses multiple businesses—including a yoga studio, frame shop and a hair salon. Once you walk through the building’s side entrance and descend down the dimly lit cemented stairwell, the first door you’re greeted by—with an 8” x 8” sign that says “#LoveEveryone”—belongs to ArcStone. Depending on the time of day, you might look to your left and notice wet, half-naked people who just finished an intense session of yoga getting water from the fountain or going into the bathroom. It’ll be a shock, no doubt, but quickly walk through ArcStone’s door and pretend the awkward stare you might have given didn’t happen. ###### ![cool-office-spaces-minneapolis.jpg](https://320867.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/320867/hubfs/AS_Blog-Office_04.jpg?width=1438&name=AS_Blog-Office_04.jpg "cool-office-spaces-minneapolis.jpg")A jackalope bust and a gong—a couple of our fun decorative items.    Besides the decorative objects (i.e. a bust of a jackalope and a gong), the office is unique architecturally. Although tall dark-wooden pillars, metal pipes and concrete walls are ever-present in the office, it’s balanced by features that remind people of home. There are two garage doors to lift open on a nice day, a pair of sliding patio doors connecting an office to the “lounge/cafe,” and window panes trimmed with light wood upon each office—inviting co-workers to come in and chat about the cute dogs running around. Complete with different angles and large bright salmon-colored walls, ArcStone’s office is definitely an exciting place. Even little squirrels want to come in and hangout. ![cool-office-spaces-minneapolis.jpg](https://320867.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/320867/hubfs/AS_Blog-Office_03.jpg?width=1438&name=AS_Blog-Office_03.jpg "cool-office-spaces-minneapolis.jpg") ###### Our Project Manager, Josh Johnson, making a new friend.   Following the ArcStone value “evolution”, the office is continuously evolving—it's been adapted to more than just a space of collaboration, strategy and problem-solving, as it's also a fun location for events. Marking a huge milestone of being in business for 20 years, ArcStone celebrated the momentous occasion at the office—complete with a disco ball and a live band. Before that, it hosted an important panel discussion about what [web accessibility](http://www.arcstone.com/blog/web-accessibility-a-recap-from-the-experts) meant when it comes to design, development, and the law.  ![cool-office-space-minneapolis.jpg](https://320867.fs1.hubspotusercontent-na1.net/hub/320867/hubfs/AS_Blog-Office_05.jpg?width=1438&name=AS_Blog-Office_05.jpg "cool-office-space-minneapolis.jpg") ###### ArcStone's chalkboard wall showing a timeline of 20 years in business.   It’s not uncommon to hear new visitors say, “this is a really cool space.” Combine that with being in close proximity to restaurants, bars and [coffee shops](http://www.arcstone.com/blog/best-coffee-shops-in-minneapolis-according-to-the-arcstonians), the ArcStone office makes sure that employees, clients and visitors are surrounded by the most important ArcStone value—happiness.
