Ran across this nice site and wanted to share. Enjoy.

I loved Legos as a kid and anxiously await my two your old son’s introduction to them as well (maybe more for my enjoyment than his).

Regardless I will certainly be buying him the following sets when he’s ready.

This aint your daddy’s office space!

So somewhat related to my previous post regarding environmental influence on creativity, This Aint No Disco is a cool site dedicated to featuring unique and inspiring workplaces.

Go and take a visit and enjoy (or even drool over) some of the workplaces listed.

Can your physical environment influence creativity?

I’ve always hated fluorescent lighting, even to the point of climbing on a chair at work to twist the bulbs until they turned off. Is there a correlation between your physical workplace, or any environment for that matter, and your level of creativity? I’ve always felt so and a recent article over at Scientific American spends some time looking at the theory.

So what’s your take? Does it matter if your working in a government-like building dressed in gray and flooded in fluorescence, or a swank and colorful loft soaked in incandescence and adorned with bean bags?

Killer weekend getaway

I really enjoy contemporary architecture and this little getaway is pretty sweet.

This home happens to be a residence designed by architect Paul McKean. Check out his other stuff over at his personal site. You can also check out more shots, and a nice writeup, over at CONTEMPORIST.
