This Danish egg-shaped capsule is lined with white-board-like walls and was built as a brain-storming vessel. The space, invented by MindLabs, is intended to promote an environment where individuals can feel like equals and idea-swapping can be made easy.
"The oval shape is somehow meant to convey a lack of hierarchy and encourage the free flow of ideas - they (Danish policymakers and business people) discuss business initiates, existing laws, and anything else that might benefit from public- and private-sector cooperation," reports Business 2.0 magazine.
