McLaren Technology Centre
Surrey UK
The staggeringly sleek McLaren Technology Centre is an office and factory in Surrey for the Formula One racing-car company. An artificial lake helps to cool the building and its beating heart - a 475-foot-long wind tunnel used to test Formula One cars.

Googleplex
California USA
Googles work ethos sets it apart from other employers. Free meals, a swimming spa, and free doctors onsite. Google engineers can spend 20% of time on independent projects. No wonder the Googleplex gets 1,300 resumés each day!
Gadgets and gizmos dominate the deskspace

Red Bull
London UK
Featuring slides and table tennis you could be forgiven for thinking you were in a nursery rather than a London office. The Soho based London HQ of Red Bull wins in the coolness stakes though.
