I once interned in a law office on Long Island. The entire place looked like it had been not only built but furnished in the 19th century. Everything in the office - from desk and tables to bookshelves and a grandfather clock - was big and heavy and made of beautiful dark, polished wood, and most of the floors were covered in oriental rugs. Each employee had a good-sized private office with at least one large window. It was like working out of a mansion from a story book.

The World Bank headquarters in DC. Back in 2009, they got a brand new LEEDS certified building. It was open floor for us (sitting alongside traders) BUT tons of space and natural lighting. When I left, I really missed that for a while.

On the inside or the outside? I worked in the Flatiron building in New York for a few years. People who have never seen the inside of the building sometimes seem impressed by that.
