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.
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.
Saegeling Medizintechnik
Saegeling Medizintechnik is a German company that produces high-end medical equipment. The same sense of technology and innovation that they use in their products, is also portrayed in this new office. This results in a clean, stylish building with some sexy curves.
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.
Pixar
You probably know Pixar from great animation films such as Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Wall-E and The Incredibles. But did you also know they have a cool office? (ow, you did?) This office is filled with paintings and figurines from several Pixar creations. You can work in some of the micro-offices or blow off some steam with a game of ping-pong or pool.
Pallotta Teamworks
Pallotta Teamworks asked Clive Wilkinson Architects to create a one of a kind office. And they got what they asked for. This entire office is made out of shipping containers that are stacked on top of one another. The shipping containers were painted in various colours to add a bit of flair to the workspace.
Red Bull London
This is probably one of my favourite offices. Partially because of the sleek minimalistic look, but mostely because of the awesome carbon slide! Red Bull’s awesome 3 floor office was created by Jump Studios, an architecture company from London, UK.
The new Facebook office is centred around employees needs and wants. Several small ‘neighbourhoods’ 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.
Bastard Store and Office
The Bastard store and office really is a skateboarder’s paradise. This is actually a combination of a skate park and an office. I’m sure that few employees will suffer from burnout in this amazing office!
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.
I’m extremely happy with working from home. It’s the best cubicle or office I can think of. Or at least that is what I used to strongly believe..
These images are simple awesome, inspirational at the very least.
While I do work in small teams, I think I’ll keep this as reference for when I’ll redecorate.
Thank you!
The whole collection is a breath-taker.
It pushes ones mind towards planning the holidays not on any special island but in one of the above offices.
Thumbs Up for this special article.
Awesome examples. Really inspirational for our office and something to work towards.
Awesome! I like all those places! Maybe one day i’ll work there
I Work in the Hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like to work google,that’s my dream
White Mountain Office is dejecting. It’s not so pleasant to see rock just behind the window all days long
if you have an office full of toys you either get kids playing instead of getting actual work done, or you get understandably annoyed people getting actual work done with all these useless toys lying around in the way costing money that could be better put to use on infrastructure or headcount. you do not get people at work getting actual work done while making use of swings and toys, massage chairs, fishbowls, and pool tabels. grow up. work is not play. play is not work. if you want to play, fund it yourself. if you want to come to work, get to work.
Very beautiful this offices.
God bless.

It’s interesting how many of these are social media companies that have only recently exploded in popularity. Talk about striking a gold mine… These offices are inspiring. Thanks for the post!
Love all of office .. I want to work at those office ..
I can work there 7 days a week 24H/day >>>and pay for that!!!
Google is a playground!
Your Comments Photoshopped…you can tell
dream offices
Love the spaces really make me want to space out in a new space….
Are these ever sweet work environments. Excellent collection.
In all this spaces it seems very diffuse the difference between an office and a prison. I prefer a house or an apartment.
Oh yes, the slide, the pool tables, the floor cushions, the dining areas. Why would you want to go home. I agree we all would work far more organically and owners would see a lots more productivity.
Google Zurich is awesome!
nice! and I used to work at an investment bank.. compared to that Wallstreet is soooo boring
Really wonderful workplace, i would love to work in this kind of offices. These all are very important aspect to get efficiant & productive work from eomployees.
very good atmosphere employee can evacuate their talents like stream of water.
Wow amazing work spaces!
Hi … this collection of 15 Awesome And Inspiring Offices is truly amazing , all of them are very nice but the one which i like the most is the third one..keep up the good work.
Love to work in one of these offices. Amazing office setups.
Twitter’s office is the most ugliest on the list. However, it is not ugly at all without the rest of article specimens.
Selgas Cano Architecture for office is something that EVERYONE should have! Whether individual is, or isn’t, aware of that… yep.
Btw, this kind of article is one of the reasons why I love Stumble.
OMG this is so amazing . I wish i work with offices like that #Dreams
Amazing office for new genaration
I like to work google,that’s my dream
This is amazing. I would love to work in a place like that. Fireviews is the best place to spread the word about your creative content like this stuff.
Google Is A Ver NIce Search Browser,and also nice office location,i am working is google company is my Dream,I Like it,
Thanx
Chirag Mehta,

These are just beyond imaginations. Lovely and superb collection. I am loving “Selgas Cano” as that’s a bit unique from all others but for sure Facebook, Redbull, Hyves and Chamber of Commerce and Industry are good too as well as colorful and i would love to work 24 hours in such a pleasant office

WHY DOES ANYBODY WANT TOO WORK IN AN OFFICE AT ALL YOU GUYS ARE GRAZY
OMG OMG OMG!! I am loving it.. I wish to make such an office and if not, i would like to work in such offices
Wow! I agree with your parents! In fact if I were running a business this is the single aspect I would achieve, beyond any other aspects to building a strong team and work place. In order for people to be creative, and creativity is a requirement of every role in any work place, the ambiance must be conducive to inspire. Equally the clock watching will reduce substantially if your work place is one of beauty and designed to encourage expression and commitment.
Latest corporate sellout trick! Haah. Only the foolish buy into all corporate crap.
wow its creative …wanna to create my own office like this…….
Amazing offices, especially the outdoor one.
Your Comments. Good to see 21st century offices, I hope designs are safe against fire, flood,natural disasters. will the maintenance cost be reduced.
What will be the cost of such finished accommodation at the rate of per square foot and time to complete.
pl share details if available .
Every one of them, great workplaces! But I miss my favorite one INVENTIONLAND! I love that one, it’s like living in a fairytale http://bit.ly/bAAcyc
Awesome! I am now working on my new office, but it will not look like this
Amazing offices
Pretty good post. I will add bookmark on your blog and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed reading your blog posts. Any way I’ll be subscribing to your feed and I hope you post again soon.
Great offices. I would like to work in one of them …
Say no more to boring office days when you work in one of those workspaces.
I’d love to also mention my own office…
http://blog.dreamhost.com/2010/10/26/301-moved-permanently/
You should add photos of Rob Dyrdek’s Fantasy factory. That looks like it would be a great place to work, and with a great boss too!
I love my job at United Way of Miami-Dade and we do great work in South Florida, I just wish we had a carbon slide in our office like they have at Red Bull London, I’m sure we’d be a lot more productive . . . great spaces, love them all!
I’m about to do a foyer for a Uni in UK, after looking here I think I need to have a rethink.
Hey, these are nice! I like the idea of the Face book one:Facebook
The new Facebook office is centred around employees needs and wants. Several small ‘neighbourhoods’ 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.
But my favorite is either Red Bull London, that German one, or Twitter.
Nice! If I actually wanted a cubical job, I’d want one of those!
Architechture rules! Maybe when i’m all grownup, I’ll make one of these!
Hmmmm… *visualizing awesome workspaces*…
Wow…kinda puts Wieden + Kennedy to shame…
Love the slide.
Incredible feats in architecture!
Where and how can I get a job at any of these places I would LOVE it!!!!!!
No privacy – no family – no individualism in these places. Just for 24/7 ant workers that have no other life. Nightmare!
Very nice place to stay, you wouldn’t really feel the pressure of a four-cornered mind limiting work space..
Is it? NO…but looks like it….hmmm….Nope.
But then again is green!
But no, is not the place where I work!
Great pics!!!!!!
How does a punk like zuckerberg have the knowledge to find this much wealth? He got help or stole it.
Well that’s a great collection of offices. I wish to change my office design too like these..
Selgas Cano Architecture is most beautiful and creative office. Selgas office theme is really a unique idea I love it.
I love this post.. And hope to work on those kinds of spaces
Just talking to the other director about how cool it would be to have any few of these!
wow! indeed, great offices! especially,the one from Google rocks! those lovely wanna be chairs are like big buttons!
wow,wow,wow.
Wow! I would love to show my office, but just like 99% of other online earners, my office is an at home space, filled with books, old desks and slow computers… but one day!

Facebook is the most likeable
Amazing offices! I wish i was working in one of them. Especialy this one with the massage rooms. )
The company dream, su real! more beautiful
Your Comments Hi I love this it is amazing and so very creative and full of talent. Now if I worked in environments such as these and children even college student and any one worked, lived in such places as these I believe the world would be in a much better attitude and therefore more peaceful state.
Nice job:)
The aquarium room at the Google offices looks positively James Bond-esque!
Mine looks a little like the twitter one. I really wish. The nature based one looks amazing, I bet it’d be even better in the snow.
realllyyy grt office… ohh gawwwd..
The google space is amazing.
my next office will be like this!
some really fantastic images of offices you have there…just looking at them gives me new ideas of what is possible in creating people centered offices that really really look good.
Ich wünsche, dass mehr Firmen in ihren Wertgegenstand… Leuten investieren würden.
I really love the designs of all these offices, I wish I had the opportunity to work in one of these! I especially like the Google Zurich office design. It looks like it would be great fun to work there. I guess office interior design plays a pivotal role in nurturing a positive attitude in employees, to make them look forward to going to work.
That google zurich office relaxation area with the aquariums on the side just makes you want to rest and feel totally at ease as you mull over the next big idea. Beautiful beautiful design, and great photo collection.
facebook is the best, lol Good post!
why do so many of these “new” work environments looks like kindergartens? the nature inpired ones however are DIVINE
Your Comments all photographs i like very much and i wish to fix slide from first floor to graund floor please help me how to do.
Hi, I like most of the work spaces, especially the ones in the woods. I think the idea of an office in a cave space is far out, and dont it look great?
Thank you all for this exceptional visual experience.
RP
I find these some really neat space, being in the furniture business for 40+ years it is amazing to observe the full 360 in design concepts. Free-standing, desk-credenza-chair-bookcase, to work stations back to benching/free-standing-free standing that is somewhat attached via brackets.
I have no real idea where any of these are located. They all look great. I’ll bet that many of them, possibly all, are located in suburban/exurban office park settings and could not design their amenities within the rigid, unyielding bureaucratic constraints of most urban center areas.
oh,my god ! its my dream ! i hope my next office like that !~~come on …
In today’s business world the key factors that are shaping our office spaces are Sustainability, Mobility and Flexibility. Work places that are sympathetic to office workers in the twenty first century are still few and far between, however perceptions are changing from businesses who no longer see offices as a liability, but rather a key branding tool.
Google’s offices are definitely the nicest and most fun in the world. I also really like Hyves offices and the different colours they use.
Kollontai shop in montreal is also an inspiring office!
Kollontai shop in montreal is great too.
office park settings and design amenities within the very good Your Comments
not that i object in the slightest to these interesting yet boring places but can i have a go please. if you want creativity, start with the building. arrrrrrg IDEA> WITH your millions, make where ALL your employeees live, THEIR PERSONAL creative place and FUCK the office off. Egotists buildings are shit.
I would be interested in seeing the Finance and IT department sections…Those are usually cubicle hell
I’m afraid you’re right. Cool offices are always associated with certain businesses or departments.
