Dream Offices

It’s not often that I go off on a topical tangent based on a previous post, especially when it’s about something as obscure as the steampunk genre. However, I just had to post this, even though it appears I’m about a year behind in noticing it.

I was cruising through deputydog’s list of annoyingly brilliant office interiors (and wishing my office setting was a little more like these sometimes!) that includes places like Google, Red Bull, and Pixar when I came upon the second-to-last entry: the steampunk offices of game studio Three Rings, inspired by Jules Verne and 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea — and we’re not talking Disney here.

Custom desks, secret conference lounge, ceiling hatches…they even have a squid, and it’s the last thing you’d expect.

Designed and built by the studio Because We Can (love the name), this office has got to be one of the most creativity-inspiring places around. I can only say that I’m a wee bit jealous.
