I know I have been threatening to post images of my new and improved office for a while now and still haven’t gotten around to it.  It’s just that I still have one empty wall and our resident photographer has her hands full with a 17 pound distractenator named Ike.  In the mean time, I bring you images from offices around the world in part of photographer Jan Banning’s series, Bureaucratics

India

China

Liberia

Yemen

Russia

Guess Where?  USA

So, still no pictures of my office, but I promise these are a million times interesting.  See the complete series here

    I think some of these actually make me feel better about my current office design. I love the people whose office they are! Still need major change in the office though – Karly, Erin! Help. I’m going to be spending a lot of time in there this year. :P :(

  8. Im a bit disturbed by the Indians paper work mess – it looks too similar to my office. Quotes and samples everywhere.

    The US and (2nd) Bolivia pictures made me laugh. They both have a certain macho affectation in common.
