Check out the article in Fast Company by Ariel Schwartz on how Generation Y is driving changes in our worklives. According to Schwartz Gen Y is pushing for more sustainable offices and they also are demanding more flexible work lives including more options to work from home. The article springs from a fascinating report by Johnson Controls that explores what is needed to capture and keep younger workers.

Maybe Monday should also be weird home office day. Last Monday we had that timber-shingled office in a pod and today the Blob lands in my inbox. It’s called Blob VB3 and is actually a polyester-clad office on wheels designed by dmvA for Xfactoragencies. The nose opens to form a covered outdoor area. I’m not sure how practical it is but it looks lovely! Via ShelterPop.
