Inspiring offices are always a delight to see. It gives hope. The fact that there's still energy and financial juice to invest in a work place where people feel good, can not be encouraged enough.
We all know how much time we spend at our office, and how much more energy you get by living and breathing some much needed creativity while you work your a** off.
Check out these JWT Amsterdam office, an advertising firm who understands the drill.
The office plan was arranged around three sections - 'Think', 'Do' and 'Make' - with bold graphics defining each section while fulfilling the remake's motto to 'seriously surprise'.
There's certainly plenty to love here - from a greenhouse-style meeting room stuffed with plants, to giant robots that double as cupboards, tree sculptures and a pop-art panorama. Watch the time-lapse video http://vimeo.com/59565077
Other fun touches include giant, face-shaped 'Nemo' chairs by Driade, an oversized cardboard bunny (for holding awards) and walls emblazoned with the agency's motto.
There also lots of places to get away, from corners and cabins for meetings to a a cafe.
May this be a wake-up call for all managers: Make sure that the spaces people work in, are as aspirational, as you want them to be aspirational in their work.
