The Nothing Office
With the help of Alrik Koundenburg and Joost van Bleiswikj, the Amsterdam based creative agency Nothing took the idea behind the company name (turning nothing into something) and applied it the design of company’s office. Using a ‘no screw, no glue’ technique the office features walls, tables, shelves, beams, and even a staircase, all made from nothing but cardboard!

Red Bull Headquarters London
There are few offices in the world that are as visually stunning and just plain fun looking as the Red Bull headquarters located in London. The office was designed by Jump-Studios, and features everything from floating staircases, pin pong table meeting rooms, a sleek lounge area, and best of all a massive slide to transport you between meetings. Some amazing pictures after the jump!

The Morris + King Company Office
Located in New York City, the Morris + King Company is a leading independent PR and marketing firm that recently finished a complete renovation of its offices, the results of which are nothing short of spectacular. Under the direction of Judith R. King, partner and principal of The Morris + King Company, along with the help of David Aldaheff, a recognized leader of the avant-garde movement in furniture design and owner of The Future Perfect, the Morris + King offices were transformed into a vibrant workspace that is both functional, and fun.
The vision and theme of the redesign was a “glowing ice cube with hidden surprises”, which is perhaps the most visible in the “blue ice-cubicles”. Fabricated by design firm Panelite, the cubicles contain dimmable stacked cube lamps, and desks with glass tabletops that reflect the tranquil blue hues from the cube walls.
The “rumpus room” is a stylish conference room that features an eclectic collection of blue chairs, including cast aluminum prototypes of 1970s Air France lounge chairs, velvet seats from the former cruise liner “Stella Solaris” and a pair of rocking chairs from Bensen. The room also has a fully stocked back, a built in plasma tv, and even a Nintendo Wii system.
To accentuate the theme of the redesign the office was decorated with an inspiring collection of paintings, sculptures and photography, including 11 custom-designed abstract paintings that reside on the walls of the firm’s 40 foot gallery whose bold colors and sharp geometric shapes appear to be in a continuous state of motion.
Between its vibrant colors, stylized furniture and calming ambiance, the Morris + King Company office definitely looks like a great place to work!

Bears Cave Office by Paul Coudamy
The “Bears Cave” is a stunning interior office design project that was recently completed by French architect Paul Coudamy on behalf of Bearstech, an internet hosting company located in Paris. The goal of the office design was to create a headquarters that communicated a feeling of strength by reflecting Bearstech’s innovative and wild approach to virtual technology.
The office is organized into three spaces, a working space, leisure space, and a meeting space. The back room provides a mineral atmosphere with Parisan rock and brick walls, a stark contrast to the chaotic cavern walls of the front meeting room which were created with wood cut-offs rescued from sidewalks, dumpsters, and wasteland, the structure of which was intended to translate “the chaotic mass power dynamited in an uncontrolled energy: a wood vortex our of a natural disaster“.
A low honeycomb cardboard bench along with a vibrantly colored yet low-key bar area separates the meeting room and the working spaces, effectively creating circulation between the three spaces.
