Google Office In Zurich

Damn, don't you want to work...ehem...(what work?!) in Google? They have everything a person needs in there and even more. They have massage chairs, slides, pool tables and other games, private cabins and much more. It's a good idea to have these atmosphere, where Google will let their 'player' do as creative as they can. These photos are from Google office in Zurich. If somehow you are a googleians or Google robots crawling to this site. Damn...we are all envy you playground! hahaha...

UFO Conference Phone

Did you see all the cool stuff Google has installed in its office for the benefit of its employees? I’m sure most of us don’t even get a fraction of what those guys have. Without being envious, I think its time we spoke to our bosses and at least got some funky looking gadgets on our desks! Like this Conference System that looks like an odd UFO or something. I’m sure if we look into its specs, we’ll find something to rave about it to THE BOSS.

Dishy to look at, the system features an extra-flat Hi-Fi speaker disk along with a detachable remote. The system is hooked up to Wi-Fi so that you are always on the top of the latest buzz. It automatically updates you on the company’s contact book, calendar, meetings alarm, business trip schedule reminders and a whole bunch of other stuff.

Moving on to the remote, it’s like a solid piece of cylinder in your hands. It has a touch dial interface that comes to life when you use it. Color codes differentiate between incoming messages, voice mails and calls. To keep it going, it tanks up using Induction technology.
Sour gapes or whatever! If can’t have a Google Office then I want this!

Tile - Hexagonal Modular Lighting System

Tile is a clean, unique, playful, contemporary, and multifunctional LED lighting device. Because of its modular nature with the unique joints that allow the lighting units to rotate in both X axis and Z axis, it functions as a work lamp, a floor lamp, and a wall lamp. It can also reconfigure into a decorative lighting device that provoke the mood of the environments.

In the wall lamp mode, the lamp suspends from ceiling with electric core connected on two sides. The lamp lights up from the back and shine through against the wall creating interesting lighting effects.

Crystal Telephone

It seems in regard to electronic design, touchscreens are in and anything tactile is out. Tao Ma sees it the other way around. The Quartz Tele concept uses large quartz crystals for each numeric number on a dial pad. Below each crystal is an embedded LED. Pressing each crystal illuminates it like a transformer’s energon cube. They all sit on a base with a sharp LED screen that displays pertinent information like incoming calls, dates, and contacts.
