Nextdoor's office design echoes the company's mission, with small touches throughout, bringing the space back to the neighborhood theme. In the reception area hang images of fishermen in Provincetown, MA photographed by artist Mischa Richter. The blue chairs are vintage from 1stdibs.com.

Says designer Ken Fulk, "The founders of Nextdoor are my dear friends - so working with them was a family-like affair. Of course, as with all start ups, there was little money for the design, but it was important to them that the space reflected the values of the company and felt like a community, not just an office. To this end, we outfitted break-out rooms with maps and images of actual interactions between Nextdoor's real life customers. We also used iconic symbols of the classic neighborhood, front doors as screens and real old-fashioned mailboxes as art, to act as a reminder and a tangible link for the employees of what they do in their digital world to the brick and mortar neighborhoods they serve."
