Boardrooms can be boring places, with snooze-worthy furniture (and we don’t mean good for afternoon naps) and little enviable design. But Seattle architect Eric Cobb raised the boardroom bar when designing the executive offices at the Zillow headquarters: a rich mix of polished wood, concrete, and plush rugs lends the rooms a refined sense of luxury befitting top-tier talent. A Zen-like water feature runs the length of the west-facing windows, which provide unobstructed views of Puget Sound. Together, they’re a double hit of calming elements sure to unwind even the most stressed-out executives. h
