37signals added some mystery to what could be a boring office video. To tell a good story, keep the ending until, well, the end.

37signals has strong opinions about work. But how should an office look if you’re an international team? That often works from home? With a 4-day week? That hates interruptions? For the moment, they’re not saying.

To tell a good story, keep the ending until, well, the end. You can see this in a series of videos from 37signals about their new offices.

To keep the audience’s attention, they’ve added a little mystery to what could easily be just another boring office video.

We’ve seen the empty space and start of construction. Now we’ll just have to wait to see how it ends. Will their offices match how we expect them to? If not, why not? Oh, by the way, were those blueprints in the 2nd video real or perhaps a red herring…

While we’re waiting to see what they’ve planned, Office Snapshots has lots of office interiors to inspire you. Don’t miss Epic’s incredible campus: WOW!

Update: So, the mystery about what surprises 37signals has planned for their new offices has finally been resolved.

My new blog for technical presenters

Our success as technical presenters depends on our ability to get audiences to take action. After all, without action it’s just entertainment!

I’ve given hundreds of technical presentations at all levels in the software industry and have learned that although creating action’s hard, it’s not impossible. I share my experience by curating the best tips and tricks, examples and resources from the web at Tech Presenting. Please join me.
