# Fun-Focused Workplaces The Davison Inventionland Office Looks like One Giant Theme Park By Meghan Young | Published 2011-07-10 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/davison-inventionland-office References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2011/07/08/willy-wonka-like-office) & [dailymail](http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2012240/Davison-offices-Pittsburgh-just-like-real-life-Willy-Wonka-factory.html) The Davison Inventionland Office certainly blows Google's headquarters right out of the waters with its workplace design. Quite literally, might I add, since part of its office actually resembles a pirate's ship. Like one gigantic theme park, this workplace is full of fun, light-heartedness and, most importantly, magic. Located in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the Davison Inventionland Office, a product-development company whose inventions are sold in Wal-Mart, Target, J.C. Penney and other major brands, is decorated with colorful confections, a tree house, boot houses and even a flowing waterfall that conceals a secret office. It was designed to inspire and stimulate its great thinkers. What I love most about the Davison Inventionland Office is the fact that the workers are still in shirts and ties. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 83% | Activity: 91% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Fun-focused Workplaces:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Designing work environments that prioritize fun and creativity to inspire and stimulate employees. - **Theme Park-inspired Offices:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating office spaces that resemble theme parks to promote a playful and imaginative work culture. - **Inspirational Workplace Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing unique and visually stimulating office designs that foster creativity and encourage out-of-the-box thinking. ### Who This Affects Most - **Product Development:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporating fun and magical elements in product development processes to create unique and engaging consumer experiences. - **Retail:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing creative and whimsical store designs that attract customers and enhance the shopping experience. - **Interior Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Revolutionizing office interior design by combining functionality with innovative and playful elements to inspire workers and improve productivity. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Factory-Adjacent Dynamic Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/innovation-campus-1.md) - [Contemporary interactive workspaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-workspace.md) - [Work-from-Anywhere Inflatable Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/work-from-anywairs.md) - [Vibrantly Designed Confectionary Office](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ritter-sport-schokozentrale.md) - [Vibrant Multi-Level Office Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gensler.md) - [Incredibly Colorful Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorful-office.md) - [Bright Colorful Workshop Offices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/office-sm.md) - [Californian-Inspired Office Space](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maximum-effort.md) - [Ultra-Colorful Design Studios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whimsical-studio.md)
