An
office is a room or other area in which people work, but
may also denote a position within an organisation with
specific duties attached to it (see officer,
office-holder, official); the latter is in fact an
earlier usage, office as place originally referring to
the location of one's duty. When used as an adjective,
the term office may refer to business-related tasks. In
legal writing, a company or organization has offices in
any place that it has an official presence, even if that
presence consists of, for example, a storage silo rather
than an office.
An office is an architectural and design phenomenon and
a social phenomenon, whether it is a tiny office such as
a bench in the corner of a "Mom and Pop shop"
of extremely small size through entire floors of
buildings up to and including massive buildings
dedicated entirely to one company. In modern terms an
office usually refers to the location where white-collar
workers are employed during the day.
