This could get you started. I don't think you'll find exactly what you're looking for on the Internet. But, honestly, an office building or lab facility isn't that difficult to draw with a ruler, a compass and some graph paper. Think about what the building would be used for, how real life office buildings work and take it from there. I think Sprawl Sites has a corp office archetype.

Ok, so it seems everybody just makes up their own thing or googles something. Ok, I guess I was asking mainly cuz I didn't know if archetecture in the future would be any different. So I'll just google something quick, and add security procedures to it from the SR4 book. Thanks for the advice! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grinbig.gif)

Floorplans are pretty easy to scare up online, but if you need something specific that doesn't look like it was done by a drunk monkey, draw your floorplan out on graph paper and the photocopy it. The copy will remove the blue lines, and leave with a (hopefully) usuable map.
It's also easy to bang out a simple floorplan in Paint. I typically select a thick line, make a bunch of overlapping boxes, erase everything but the "footprint" of the building, and use a thinner line to fill out the interior rooms. It's also pretty easy to make a perfectly symetrical building by making half of it, copying and flipping it. So if you can't find what you need in an existing plan, you should be able to cobble something together fairly easily. |
