It’s true. Our environment affects the way we work. I remember an agency where I once worked, I found it really hard to be productive as it was a bit like being in a science lab. Think; concrete floors and stark white blank desks – heaven forbid you had work on your desk! Although sleek and well designed, it was not conducive to creative thinking. As designers we hope our offices are designed in an inspirational manner. It is definitely easier to think and be motivated and inspired in such surroundings. Here’s a few creative spaces I would love to work in….

Ogilvy

A boardroom that changes colour.

I’d be pretty impressed if I was a client sitting in this reception. Ogilvy in Cape Town is one of the largest advertising agencies in the world. No excuse for a lack of creativity in this building Oglivy

Three Rings Design

After the whole office gave input into their wants and needs for the office design, the theme for the space was decided on – Victorian / Steam Punk.Photo credit and interior design;LLC & Three Rings San Francisco

Nothing

The offices at Nothing are made entirely of cardboard. The idea being to create an office that is nothing, a blank canvas on which people can leave their mark.Pretty bleeding obvious it’s Amsterdam, what other country wouldn’t shut down this place for OHS reasons… Love the Dutch! Nothing Amsterdam
