Career Voyeurism: See Where Creatives Work

rsz_peeping zebra.jpgFirst of all, have I ever mentioned how consistently impressed I am with ADVERTISINGLAB, the self-proclaimed "blog on the future of advertising technology"? Well, if I haven't, let me just say for the record that I find this blog consistently impressive, chock-full as it is with posts and commentary on the cool, the interesting, and the downright mindboggling. You want an example? Why don't you check out this post on the Fog Screen. That's right, a projection screen made of fog. Is your mind boggled, or what?

And for all you creative types looking for cool places to work, why don't you check out this post on the design of creative workspaces? In addition to listing several books on inspiring interiors, the post also points you to a site called, "This Ain't No Disco," which features pictures of ad agencies from around the world. If you work for an agency and it isn't represented on this site, you can upload the appropriate images. Also, if you like or don't like what you see at a particular firm, you can express your opinion by voting.

All I can say is, "Some designers sure like to wrap their desk and everything on or around it in aluminum foil."
