More ’80s Office Park Fun

Palms and pyramids

Over the weekend, the weather was beautiful, and for the first time this year, I felt that summer was truly on the way! While many people packed picnic lunches and headed to the local lakes, my hubby and I made a special visit to the…office park. Many of you know that I’m a bit obsessed with ’80s office parks. If not, perhaps this photo shoot will prove that fact. Or this shoot. Or this shoot. You get the idea…

This Austin office park includes several buildings, including a medical center, shown below. The overhang features a skylight-style roof with pyramid-like structures that combine with the nearby palm tree to create pure ’80s design goodness!

Now if I could just get my living room to look like the lobby of one of these buildings…
