Tuesday- I mostly sat in meetings all day, which were interesting. Most were meetings with maybe clients. Pretty quiet day. I also tried designing part of the Verve building, but it wasn’t approved.
Yesterday-The first half of the day I spent with a guy in the office named Dan. He showed me his designs for the Ameren headquarters cafeteria. It was 110 pages. The rest of the day, I spent in a meeting with a woman showing new carpet samples to the interior designers.
Today-I got my own desk today, and was asked to make an interior design folder with ideas of things millennials would like in an office. They’re designing the interior of a computer company, mostly made up of younger people, so they wanted the inside to reflect that and make it comfortable with nap pods and bean bags, a gym and a video game room.
Interesting…are people supposed to nap while at work (in nap pods)?
Yes ma’am. It’s encouraged in some places, thinking that people work better in the afternoon after they’ve had a nap.
