No native English speaker would say “a big AND old office.” The correct way of saying this in English is “a big old office” or colloquially “a big ol’ office”.

It's not technically wrong, but this is not how English is spoken. In spoken English, the phrase would be [article] + [adjectives] + [noun] i.e. "a big old office". In spoken English, the conjunction وَ would not be necessary and would not be used.
