4.0 Schools has made a point not to look like it’s in the traditional education field. Located on the second floor of the IP building in the Warehouse District, the company shares its space with tech startups, design firms, freelance videographers and a conveniently located bar. The offices themselves are aiming for a look like a Silicon Valley startup from the height of the tech boom. One room has two drafting stools and a tall table in the center — that one is for working. There’s another one with beanbag chairs — that one is for thinking. In the back, there’s a windowless room they call the “wind tunnel” (narrowly beat out “the grinder”) — that one is for presentation. They’ve ordered a big propeller off eBay to put on the wall.
