Is you environment creative?

Post by maxxis »

This raises quite the question.

Is you work environment creative?

Does your employer realize the importance of a creative environment? The impact this has on the general mood and productivity of the staff.

At the moment mine is as creative as an accounting firm.

PS. This is placed in Graphic Design because I feel that this is the industry is applies to most and the industry I want to get answers from.

Post a pic of your office space if you can.

Well the building exterior and the foyer is nice, but the offices are plain and boring - but the thing is, my work does not really require us to be creative, so...

Thats just my point. The employers will spend the money to impress the clients but thats just it.

The staff suffer because of this.

Well I work very closely with our creative team and while our office looks like any typical open plan office, we have complete freedom to express ourselves in our work area, ie, can have whatever pics, or toys or music playing (provided it doesn't bother others) so yeah, our envirconment is pretty creative.

I think it also helps that we have company lunches each time we launch a new product or have a success. Really helps with the team building and creates a nice vibe cos pretty much the entire company get on like we're friends
