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 (see Small Office, Home Office) 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.
