My parents
always said I have to choose a job where I’d be happy to go to everyday.
A good work environment can really make a job more fun. Some companies
really go the extra mile to make their employees happy. They often do
this via a kick-ass office design.
So compiled below are some of the most unique and beautiful workspaces around the world. I hope you will like it.
Google Zurich
I’m sure you’ve seen this office plenty
of times on the internet. This office is all about fun: it has a lot of
specially decorated rooms in which employees can do their work. There’s
even a game room for relaxation and a gym where you can work out. Check
it out:
Selgas Cano Architecture
The Selgas Cano Architecture office,
designed by Iwan Baan, makes you feel like a part of nature. Thanks to
the fact that the office is below ground level and the huge windows, you
really feel encapsulated by plants and trees. This looks like a really
peaceful environment that stimulates creativity.
Twitter
Unless you’ve been living under a rock
for the past five years, you’ve probably already heard of Twitter. This
fast-growing tech company recently moved into a new office. This new
office looks really clean and simple. You’ll find plenty of references
to twitter in their office, such as birds and @-symbols.
White Mountain Office
This office somehow reminds me of the
nuclear bunker in the end of Terminator 3. This old atomic shelter is
now used by Swedish ISP. This really is a one of a kind work
environment.
Yahoo Barcelona
Yahoo
has several offices around the world. The office you see here is
located in Barcelona, Spain. This office is, just like all other Yahoo
offices, focused on fun and creativity. This creativity is expressed via
paint-like artwork on walls and windows.
TBWA Hakuhodo
TBWA Hakuhodo
is a Japanese advertising company. This awesome office was designed by
Klein Dytham Architecture. This office wants to bring the outside in.
You’ll see plenty of nature inspired elements such as grass and trees.
Facebook
The new Facebook office is centered on
employee’s needs and wants. Several small ‘neighborhoods’ were created
to give each department its own unique style. Employees are encouraged
to write on walls, add artwork, and move furniture as they see fit.
Hyves
Hyves.net is a social networking site
that’s really popular in the Netherlands. Just like the Facebook office,
this office is all about the people that work there. There’s only one
slight difference between both offices: the Hyves office is filled with
bright colours. And when I say bright, I mean really bright. Check it
out:
JWT New York
JWT is one of the oldest advertising
agencies in the world. This office is designed over five floors and
designed to accommodate 900 employees. This office reflects JWT’s
business model and brand identity and it was designed by the creative
minds of Clive Wilkinson Architects.
Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Slovenia
This has to be the coolest government
office I’ve ever seen! The organic looking white framework in
combination with a lot of windows and tons of plants makes this office a
real treat for your eyes.
