An Exclusive Look Inside Portal A’s New San Francisco Office

Portal A is an independent studio with offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles that develops, produces, and distributes video built for conversation. Its new San Francisco office is located in SoMa neighborhood, which has become the biggest startup hotspot in the city.

“Before we moved in, the walls were each a different pastel color, the space had wall-to-wall gray carpeting, there were walls in the middle of the space breaking up the openness, and there were (gasp!) cubicles throughout. To create the current look, we painted the entire office white, knocked down the obstructing walls to open up the space, rebuilt the bathrooms, broke down the cubicles (Office Space style), built out a new kitchen with custom counters and shelves, and most importantly, ripped out the carpets and re-stained the plywood to a beautiful cherry color”, says Portal A
