The building includes a 200 meter long "Trim Trail" on the roof, a three-lane swimming pool, massage rooms, a host of exercise studios and a games area for basketball, five-a-side soccer or badminton.

Less energetic workers can watch the sports from a diagonal staircase that will double as a seating area and cut through the building's 11 stories before emerging onto a roof garden.

The office is largely open plan and Google's new headquarters will be the first wholly-owned and designed Google building outside the US

The roof of the campus will be covered in a 300 meter long garden, which apart from the running track and relaxation areas will be partly covered in wildflower gardens.
