Arcade Offices

Even if you can’t escape cubicle life, you can make the best of your own space. Somewhere in Middle Island, NY, video-game enthusiast Brendan Bailey has made himself a workspace that looks more like an arcade museum than some place to make spreadsheets. You even have to search pretty hard to find his phone. See more of his fantastic office here.

Coolest Offices: Inventionland
Source: Visual News
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is home to Inventionland, a 61,000 square-foot wonderland that’s possibly the most eccentric office of the bunch. Here, employees tackle what would otherwise be mundane desk work on either a giant pirate ship, inside a treehouse, or inside what looks to be a giant Hot-Wheels racetrack. For added creative spark, there are also three running waterfalls and lifelike trees, birds, and butterflies. Inventionland calls itself “America’s largest invention factory”, proving that innovation is still alive and well, and supplying product ideas and prototypes to thousands of companies daily.

Coolest Offices: Open Systems

Ambience abounds in the minimalist and modern office of Open Systems, designed by Meury Architektur of Switzerland. This integrated service management company is decked out with “a series of identical pods” which for whatever reason (maybe a lack of corners) sounds like much more fun than cubicles. Each of the floor-to-ceiling window walls can be folded down and removed altogether to garner extra office space.
