Inventionland

How organized/clean/personalized is your workspace? I prefer clean, simple and minimalist but unfortunately that's rarely the reality. No matter how cool you think your little trash can basketball set-up is, get ready to be owned.

Inventionland is America's largest invention (product design) company. ***BEWARE: Clicking the company link will take you to the homepage which plays terrifying music*** It turns out 2,000-2,400 inventions each year and has also been called the world's most creative workplace, according to its website. It's located in Pittsburg.

Employees, who they refer to as "creationeers," work in 16 themed sets, such as a shipwrecked pirate ship, a faux cave, a giant robot and a castle complete with turrets and drawbridge. If that's not enough, there are three running waterfalls, life-like trees and butterflies and chirping birds. I bet this is where bad elves go to hell. But don't take my word for it--take a look for yourself.

If you feel like perusing the interiors of other workspaces, check out the blog This Ain't No Disco.
