+ No, that’s not an escalator, it’s a slide from one office floor to another. It’s in the new Red Bull HQ in London. I got this in the mail this morning from Jump Studios, the designers of the project, the day after Radical Office Design. The release says it best; “The stunning interior generates adrenalin and a sense of dynamic excitement, emotions associated with the Red Bull brand and its various activities.”. See the big picture here.
What an incredibly stupid design. Fun? Sure. Practical? Not at all.
Whoa, I would love a slide in my office, though the profile of the staircase freaks me out a little bit.
I work in a well-designed office, though not as funky as this. Every time I go to another office, say, that of a friend, I find myself relieved that I don't work there. So many grey cubicles, so much flourescent light. I don't know how long I'd last.
I've posted several other pictures of this office on my blog at this url:(basically the ones from the jpeg)

This is an eye opener of all ages and generations, I mean it! Am new in this world of design but am existing now coz of such challenges. With high hope to speed up this far and beyond. Big thankU and Cheers Men!
