Why Twitter Bought Two Log Cabins From the 1800s

Twitter is bringing yet another taste of the great outdoors to its wood-enveloped San Francisco headquarters.

The company is currently in the process of transplanting a pair of 19th century log cabins from Montana to its office space on Market Street — a sprawling former furniture mart — where they are to be repurposed as dining room facilities.

Olle Lundberg, the San Francisco designer responsible for Twitter’s rustic scheme, stumbled upon the ancient structures on Craigslist. Subsequently, they had to be deconstructed, shipped from Montana and then reassembled in California.
