Best of: The office: Skype
I decided to take some time rethinking both the blog and my place inside the world wide web. To make the wait more bearable, a selection of mine and yours favourite posts of the last years of Carrie Can, will be reposted. I hope you'll enjoy...
Working during the summer holidays always seems a bit harder. But it must be a consolation if you're able to work in a trendy designed workplace such as the Skype offices in Stockholm.

Monday mornings aren't fun. After two days of sleeping in, the alarm clock going of at 6am sounds like something out of Dante's inferno. You drag yourself out of bed and, after several cups of coffee, squeeze yourself more or less awake on an overfilled metro for the morning commute.
Unfortunately there is now way to make Monday mornings feel like Friday evenings, but wouldn't they be a bit more bearable if your office would be this beautiful designed work space instead of just gray and boring?
Some people are so lucky. That's why I decided to do some posts about inspirational offices. Please be free to forward them to your boss...
First up: Facebook.
If you run a hip social networking site you need a hip office to match. And I think the employees over at the California headquarters can't complain.

As a graphic designer I have a healthy typography addiction. And type can be a great addition to your interior too.
Here's the proof.

Maybe you know the feeling: you're walking around your local IKEA, admiring the styling of the display ‘apartments’. At the same time a thought crosses your mind : nobody actually lives in tiny 20m square apartments ! (Well apart from maybe students and leprechauns.)
And then I came across the apartment of NJ in New York. It might be a bit bigger than your average IKEA store display, but it’s still quite tiny to harbour a family of 3.
Thanks to some clever tricks (the stair that doubles as book shelves, the fold out desk…) the space feels much bigger than it is.
So forget about spacious lofts, tiny apartments really are the thing for the future!
Now for a cunning plan to fit all my junk on 20 square meter...

Sometimes it can be so easy to add some colour and freshness to your home. One of the simplest way is just to add some flowers!
Tadaa, an instant glamour addition...

Best of Carrie Can
As you might or might not know from my previous post, I decided to put blogging on hold for a while. I need this time to rethink both the blog and my place inside the world wide web. I however realise how annoying the wait must be for you readers. That is why when I read yellowtrace's latest post I had an Eureka feeling. Just like me Dana is taking a little break, but instead of not posting she is doing a recap of her posts from this year. What a wonderful idea! So I decided to do a recap of some of mine and yours favourite posts of the last years of Carrie Can. I hope you'll enjoy...
And today to start of with, I choose one of my fav modern wisdoms.
