Incredible Workspaces: Part I

If you have ever had to work in a place that didn’t exactly get the creative juices flowing, you probably understand the importance of a nice workspace. For web designers, having a great workspace is essential. What we do is centered around creativity, and being creative is often aided or hindered by our surroundings.

So what makes an incredible workspace? Take a look at the showcase below and find out.


  • The office of LouLou and Tummie, illustrators and “goodie makers”.

  • Many companies have claimed to have started in the garage. Fling Media is really doing it. If mine looked like that, I would work out of the garage too.

  • Sometimes it is all about the view, off-screen and on.

  • This 350 year old room provides all of the atmosphere needed for a great workspace.

  • The home office of one time Microsoft Futurist David Lu.

  • This is where Mattmo works, a crossmedia concept and design agency.

  • Another organized workspace with a good view.

    Fantastic, I’d love a desk with a view too!

    May need to move house though.

    The last three are very nice, certainly where I’d want to work. Very impressed by the 350 year old office – beautiful! Very inspirational!

    These are pretty cool. I can’t wait until our construction is finished on our new building. If you’re interested, check out the drawings and 3d fly around:

    These are great. I like the picnic table style workspace. Reminds me of working at park.

    @Henry,

    Not at this very moment, but most likely will be in 2009. Looking to add more web developers on staff. Feel free to email me to stay in touch.

    Jeff,

    My comment was actually meant to be more of a compliment on your soon to be new workspace, but I am sure your company would be a great place to work too.

    wow… such a setup as any of these, especially the 350 year old ambiance would be a great place to “work”.
