Orgatec trip

Andy and Stewart recently returned from a brief trip to Cologne in Germany for the Orgatec furniture show. We'll be blogging on some of the fantastic products we saw there soon, but for now here's some holiday snaps.

The first picture is of Stewart outside the cathedral, and the other wonderful architecture is parts of the Kolumba Museum (http://www.kolumba.de/?language=eng). Stay tuned for another update soon...

The perfect office... what's on your wish list?

To celebrate our new blog – which we hope will brighten your working day, and give you some fun design ideas too – we're starting a bit of a competition for suggestions of what the perfect office should include.

Now unsurprisingly answers on this may vary quite considerably, but we're prepared to adjudicate! As a starting point, have a look at this great post from Alexander Kjerulf, the Chief Happiness Officer.

He's also got some superb examples of funky office furniture here. It's hard not to be envious, although some of the suggestions aren't too practical!

So what's on your wish list? Is it a Nintendo Wii and plasma screen in the boardroom, or perhaps a sparkling water tap in the staff kitchen? Get in touch with us on Facebook and we'll include the best suggestions in our new posts. Stay tuned to see what weird and wonderful ideas come up!
