I'm insanely jealous of the people that work at Three Rings Design, a video game company located in San Francisco. Of course, if you work in an office with that architecture, you deserve to be envied. Who wouldn't want to have a giant tentacle squid couch sitting in the middle of their game room?
BecauseWeCan (Oakland, CA) is an architectural studio that designs office furniture and work environments. Unlike other firms, they actually build the stuff they create (rather than hiring contractors to build for them), hence lowering costs, but providing the highest quality design and materials for their clients. Plus, they come up with creative, affordable solutions to what would otherwise be an expensive problem (see lighting).
What they've done for Three Rings is pure genius and beauty. They've converted an entirely blank, boring, square office space into something teeming with life and three-dimensionality (hell, let's thrown in an extra five-dimensions because it's that freakin' awesome). The office has a style and personality all its own, and it's quite obvious that it was a mutual labor of love from both the clients and the contractors.

Creative Design/Hacking + Cost-Effectiveness + Eco-friendly = SMART.
Also, that squirrelly Tree Stump coffee table is too cute for words.

that's pretty impressive. i feel super bad for whoever has to dust that place.. too many nooks and crannies. it reminds me of a kids room.. and not in a good way. maybe i'm just a modernist jerkface, haha.
