The right-hand doorway from the lobby leads directly into the open floorplan where most Level One employees spend their time. The floor space is bright and airy with natural light (magically natural light, that is), and the furniture is simple and modern. Although the desks are clustered in groups, which leads to limited privacy, there are plenty of quiet places to hold a private conversation. Pull up some chairs in the conference room or the break room, if necessary, and if really pressed, muffling charms are encouraged. The desks are clustered by division to encourage cooperation and teamwork, so play nice!

Around the corner from the main work area, you will find the private "offices" which some senior employees have been assigned to for their day to day business. The offices are separated from the rest of the work area by larger, more formal partitions that are not easily moved. Some office spaces are shared between two or three employees, depending on the nature of their work, but these employees are still likely to travel back and forth to the main work areas with some regularity. Some of the other spaces here are empty and may be booked by employees who may need a more private place to work on sensitive tasks. The Junior Undersecretary's "office," or rather, large desk, private filing cabinet, and guest chairs with a partition surrounding them, can also be accessed from this section as well, should you need him.

The dark lower cabinets along either side of the room contain all of the work essentials such as spare parchment and quills, magical copier equipment, paperclips, a watercooler, and owl treats for the pesky memo carriers. Messages from the Minister and Senior Undersecretary can be found on the message board on the wall that runs behind the receptionist's desk.
