Scott Adams And IDEO Create Dilbert's Perfect Cubicle

from the ooooh,-I-know-what-I-want-for-my-birthday... dept

Dilbert creator Scott Adams hears a lot and thinks a lot about office culture and what the perfect cubicle would be like. So, he teamed up with famed industrial design firm IDEO, to create the perfect cubicle. It looks pretty cool. It's completely modular and easy to personalize (you want astroturf carpeting? No problem!). It has lots of cool features, including an early warning detection system for when the boss is coming and a pull out hammock. There's also a wilting flower that springs to life when you enter the cubicle to make you feel loved while in your cubicle. I'm not so sure about the cubicle lighting that follows the path of the sun, though (that might get annoying). However, the most useful feature is clearly the guest chair. When anyone sits in it, your phone will automatically ring 30 seconds later, so you can kick them out of your cubicle. For more info on the perfect cubicle you can check it out at IDEO's ultimate cubicle site or the corresponding Dilbert's Ultimate Cubicle site at Dilbert.com.

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.

Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.

While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.

–The Techdirt Team
