Invisible Creature is a graphic design company based in Seattle, WA. They create all sorts of art from t-thirts to posters to cd covers. If you’re a fan of Anberlin, Despised Icon, Foo Fighters, Will.I.Am, Korn, Kanye West, or Underoath, chances are you’ve seen their work.
This design space is full of inspirational items, which are sure to assist in the creative process. Design books, great albums, posters, toys… all things magical for artistic design. The space is illuminated with a lot of natural light, which is so much more comfortable on the eyes than some harsh artificial fixtures. The office looks to be in an apartment and is outfitted with a kitchen for quick snack and lunch runs.
This video isn’t a comprehensive tour showing closeups of workstations, but it does give us a good idea of some of the perks that come with being a Microsoft employee, or Microsoftee. The tour is led by a guy that seems like a part-time college resident assistant, in a video that seems like a college recruiting video, but whatever, it does a pretty good job of showing off their campus to potential Microsoft employees.
It shows some highlights of the Redmond, Bellevue, and Seattle office spaces. Enjoy!
There’s a sweet new idea raging across the country like a proverbial wildfire, and it’s called coworking. It’s kind of like an office version of a hostel. The idea is to have a large office that is available for anyone to drop by and share on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Today we’re looking at Office Nomads, a great coworking establishment in Seattle.
Office Nomads is stocked with all the essentials: Internet, conference rooms, printers, coffee, a notary, and, obviously, a bookcase full of board games for when you get sick of working. I think a fun thing to do would be to go to Office Nomads, pay the daily fee for yourself and a couple of friends, and then spend 8 loud hours playing Catchphrase and annoying the other tenants. As you’re getting escorted out, tell them Office Snapshots sent ya.

Have you heard of Pluggd? Well forget all about it, because what used to be an audio and video search system is now Delve Networks, a video publishing platform. Basically, you can upload your videos, manage them, and then get everyone to watch them. And then you get to watch the dollars roll in.
Delve’s office is located in sunny Seattle. They have nice big windows, red bricks, and a doggy. It looks like the poor doggy wants to go somewhere, but those mean humans forgot to put in a doggy door. Way to go, humans.
