When it comes to well-known companies, Google is not one of them. I had to Ask Jeeves who they were, and even he didn’t know. So suffice it so say, Google makes widgets, and people like them.
We’ve shown quite a few examples of Google’s extravagant offices, and folks, this one is just basically a normal office, with Googly colors thrown around for good measure. They do have a nice pantry with plenty of snacks and drinks, to enjoy while working (playing foosball). Now while the office isn’t too spectacular in and of itself, they do have a wonderful view of the city.

The NetCircle claims to have “the best office in the world”. Laughable, right? Wrong. This office is amazing. We’ve seen a whole lot of offices, and this one might really be the best one in the world. Let’s start off with the company, though: The Netcircle specializes in building and growing social communities, handling everything from the development and design to the marketing and managing.
The office, situated in a gorgeous loft in Shanghai, China, and it’s home to 40 of the happiest employees in the world. The top floor looks like the home of Cyberdyne Systems, while the first floor looks like an art gallery. The chandeliers add a lot of character without being over the top, and bright blue lights even keep the stairs from being boring. The best part is probably the garden overlooking the Huangpu River. With its unique benches and beautiful views of downtown Shanghai, it’s a great way to get away from work for a bit. Not that you’d want to if you worked here.

I hope you’re not sick of seeing Yahoo! offices. Because here are some more. This time, we’re crossing the big pond (not that dinky Atlantic Ocean), and checking out the inner workings of Yahoo! in Hong Kong. Unlike those other Yahoo! offices, this one is weird.
It’s true, there are some things to be impressed by, like the great view and the very modern reception area, but there are also many mysteries. Why are there so many cardboard boxes? Why is there a fish in an overturned gift bag? Why on earth are there SO MANY TOYS?!? Questions for the ages, my friends. Questions for the ages.

If you’re like me, you’ve heard of Lloyd’s of London but don’t actually know just what it is that they do. In the interest of edutainment, I’ll tell you. Lloyd’s isn’t a company, but rather an insurance market, where individuals and corporations meet to pool and spread risk. You’d also be interested to know that they have an office in Shanghai, and that’s where we come in.
Lloyd’s Shanghai office was designed by M Moser Associates, who apparently know what they’re doing, because this office is fantastic. Look at that shine! That light! Those beautiful splashes of color! You can even see the Oriental Pearl Tower out the window. I think we can agree: Lloyd’s wins.
