Default Anyone got a cool office?
I was looking at some office spaces like google etc, and while they look great I've never actually met anyone that works in anything other than a normal office. Anyone here lucky (or not) enough to work in one of the weird/wacky/cool offices you see on the web?

I work for one of the top 10 "best company to work for" according to Fortune. The outside of all our buildings look cool but the insides are all computer/wires:


I've actually been working inside a copper faraday cage for about a year now, not unlike this

I work in the youngest listed building in England (dunno about UK), designed by Sir Norman Foster.





And yes, that's an immaculate lawn on the roof!

Each one of those setups has a dedicated 5.1 audio system.

I pride myself on actually knowing what a Faraday cage is, but that one really really looks like a garden shed.

Don't suppose you can "text" anyone while working in there.

[rofl] Do you typically do "business" in common areas? You should, uhm, probably look into stopping that.

I am still trying to figure out how you see a lobby with red chairs and think of a bathroom. [rofl]

Ours has wood panels along the bottom but pretty much looks the same. But we can text and send/receive calls , we filter out other signals and pump in the unicast.

Squint a bit and it looks like a futuristic Japanese bathroom!

Anyhow, cool office you have

Norman Foster is an amazing architect, and that is an amazing looking building.
