The Office - A Creative Collaboration 07/22/2011
2 Comments
 
A couple years ago, I stumbled across an article regarding shipping containers converted into offices. The idea fermented and sparked a conversation between colleagues earlier this year. The conversation has turned into reality. A group of design associates (ironically, mostly members of the High Desert Design Council) are making private offices out of used shipping containers in a shared warehouse space. We will each have privacy in a creative hub.

The exteriors of each container will be uniform, but we all get to design our own interior. My mind is swirling with ideas...

This is such a spectacular idea. So glad that you'll now have a place to hang your hat, and designs while in Bend. Your ideas about designing the space sound great. Congrats to you and the others involved in this cool plan!
