My Cubical Decoration won First Price
Its October 2009 month of Diwali festival season in India, two days back we got mail from Recreation activity group that in office there is cubical decoration competition, last year I won price for it, and it was challenge for me to again win this price.
Decorating the cubicle doesn’t translate it to adding all the pink and frills you have. It just means the place where you spend most of your day should have an inspiring effect on you. It should make you feel at home and motivate you to work better. A boring cubicle might proclaim professionalism but it is hardly exciting. You may enjoy what you do but a boring and lifeless cubicle may spell doom to your enthusiasm. Actually when you work in the environment where you are happy and you feel at home, your productivity increases and you stay alert for longer time. Personalizing your workspace can give a flow to your creativity and help you enjoy your work better.
So after two days brainstorming I finalized to work on current hot new about “Presence of water on Moon”, my theme was “SpadeWorx Moon Station”. SpadeWorx Software Services Pvt Ltd, is our company mainly operational on RIA Development, Frameworks Services, Rich Internet Application Development.
What does mean “SpadeWorx Moon Station” theme?
Theme is SpadeWorx opened new office on Moon, it has new workstation moon. See following pictures.
* Universe environment feel: I used blank papers to fill surrounding of desk and painted planets and stars with colors to bring universe environment feel.
* Realistic feel: Few buildings that will represent the various work stations of our company like MSFT, OpenWorx, Test lab, Usability and main Head Quarter, HR Tower, to bring realistic feel.
* Future cars on Moon: I used some nice and sporty looking kids cars to represent the future techno driven development on the Moon highways.
* Paper made Moving satellite around the moon, and dish antennas for faster communication, also to show SpadeWorx will build capability to launch satellites from Moon surface, I used to show paper made satellite launchers.
* Actually you can see that I created that environment with my desktop by covering monitor with silver paper and big walky-talky, silver colored goggle, and white colored helmet with strips silver paper.
* To bring aliveness that as I am working that environment I changed my wallpaper with some moon pictures, and some background robotic tones.
* I did not forget to show small water tank near workstation.
And finally I succeed in my effort when I got mail from organizing team that I won the first price for Cubical Decoration for this year. Hope you guys will love to implement Moon station theme for participating in Cubical decoration competition. Wish you all the best.
