Stockholm-based Note Design Studio has sent us photos of a new interior-design project: an IT department that--hold on to yourPerl!--is actually pretty stylish.
The office, for the Swedish horse-racing company ATG, has everything your typical IT department does not: Color, for one. Also: meeting rooms. It even has windows, a view for IT dudes unto a cruel, unappreciative, hard-drive-corrupting world.
How nice to see a company take pains to give the IT stiffs a workplace that for once doesn’t resemble a sensory deprivation chamber. Everyone needs glimpses of sun and the chance to engage in real live conversation with real live human beings now and again--even the Nick Burnses of the world.
COMMENTARY: That's what I call a real slick looking IT department. Now run my damn reports and do snappy.

Hmm, that's true. It pays to have a bit of color, a bit of life, around the office space. It feels refreshing and motivating, and it can enable people to work with more vigor.
