So my office has been rethemed and this is now in reception....also could be titled, come in and see my Christmas Bonus in the flesh.
Yes, its our own version of Tracy Emin's unmade bed.
Well, if I'm not getting a Christmas bonus, at least there is a place for me to have a nap!!!
Also, we have artwork (for sale) by local artists all around the office, and a mural of a Robot Geisha painted in the studio
(the mural is GORGEOUS btw)
But, I will be missing my Christmas Bonus!!
eta...just an update to say that there is now a tube of KY Jelly, Condoms, and various bottles of booze in RECEPTION in our PLACE OF WORK. Its completely inappropriate...this isnt't he freaking Tate Gallery.

No, all his work has floating heads. They are robots he said...I said, Hey, I appreciate robots. So They all have floating heads....strange but true.

Art or not I couldn't walk past that unmade bed display more than once.
The mess would just bother me too much. I'd have to straighten it up
BTW: If that's art then during his teenage years my brother's bedroom was an absolute masterpiece

Wow. Your senior managers have an interesting sense of style.
Good luck recruiting people. They will walk in and think they are in the wrong place. I can hear you on the phone now "Walk in the door, pass the unmade bed and KY Jelly...yes, I said KY Jelly...anyhow, my office is the third door on the right"
Now I'm wondering about the past Elvis theme and the toilet bowl. Did they recreate the death or just leave it to your imagination?

The thing is, I think that anyone in the design industry who sees this would think "WOW! THIS IS A NEW!FANTASTIC!WOWSERS!MODERN!CUTTINGEDGE!" company and I want to be a part of this...
Yeah. Its insane.

Yes, the jungle room is now a games room, the trophy room is going to be an art gallery also, I don't know what the meditation room is going to be...but it should be interesting...
I will take some pictures and post them soon.

Yeah, I'd want to make the bed too!
I like the idea of local artwork on the walls though. Our old office had nothing on the walls, and our new office has a bunch of random stuff that we found in the storage room when we moved.
