    Beats' New Office in Culver City

    Architect Barbara Bestor started designing office space for Beats four years ago when they had a staff of 16. Now around 600 people have moved into new digs in converted warehouses in the Hayden Tract area of Culver City, looking onto Baldwin Hills. But, just as the company moved in, some big news broke from Silicon Valley.
