[This feature is part of our series on great \u00a0offices<\/a><\/span>\u00a0in India]<\/span><\/p>\n

Think software, programming, coding languages and engineers, and the first imagery that pops in mind is likely going to be of functional desks, industrial layouts, a Facebook-like office<\/a><\/span>, and overall a picture of all things dull, numbers and nerd-like.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, ThoughtWorks – a software design and delivery, pioneering tools and consulting services company – is refreshingly different. \u00a0The office is bright, colourful and quirky with its interesting use of props and thoughtful details, serving as a reflection of the company’s fun, open and forward thinking work culture. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to Sameer Soman, managing Director for ThoughtWorks<\/span> India,”In keeping the same policy in mind, through our office premises we want to create a positive social change. Hence, a significant part of the office interior is created with use of recycled pieces \u2013 like the tyres, the front of the bus, autorikshaw, etc. The set-up in the office is commonly referred as the \u2018dining table\u2019 set-up. \u00a0The square and open office layout allows for clear line of sight that encourages swift, efficient communication and clear visibility within and across team boundaries. A vibrant office space, allowing people to table best thoughts for the open source and agile way of working.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Here is a glimpse of the ThoughtWorks Pune office.<\/span><\/p>\n

Gone are the days when a Google office was the last word in office spaces. With the focus on creating beautiful, thoughtful and ecofriendly spaces, not only are concept offices bringing out the most productivity out of their employees, but also enabling them to enjoy spending most their time at the workplace.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
