TikTok just revealed its new five-story LA office, showing its commitment to battling US social media giants like Instagram and Youtube
The five-story office was designed to "embody TikTok's fun and joyful personality."
The entire office is an open floor plan.
It also has what the company described as a "stadium-style presentation and gathering space."
This Culver City office seems to be the next step in TikTok's path to US growth, which TikTok acknowledged in a statement.
"While we are a global company, having a permanent office in LA speaks to our commitment to the US market and deepens our bonds with the city, and the talent and companies, that call it home," the company said.
Decor nods to some of the most popular videos on the app...
...while custom murals add to the youthful, modern aesthetic. The office is even dog-friendly.
TikTok said that it will continue building its LA team, with "key leadership hires across functions like product, content, music, safety, and operations."
While TikTok has nowhere near the number of daily users as Facebook, the app's parent company, ByteDance, is growing quickly. ByteDance has been described as "China's Facebook," and with a valuation of $75 billion, it is the highest valued private company in the world.
The company added that it plans to build a content-creation studio in the office by the summer of 2020, something other platforms like YouTube already offer.
Last month, ByteDance publicly rejected rumors that it was considering selling off its TikTok stake, and now TikTok is seeking a new US-based CEO.
