Creative help required.........

Hi All,

My office has a medium sized demonstration room combined with a med/lg sized presentation area. Our business is hi-tech IT stuff with the demo area being used to demo new/upcoming technologies.

Now onto my point, we are looking for a catchy and engaging name for the area (not demo suite or presentation lounge). If this name could include the word 'Insight', then that would be cool.

Any ideas?

Juz

Hi

Everything you will come up with will sound rubbish to anyone who is not employed by the company (actually it will seem rubbish to the employees too). Why put a badge on it at all?

We have a demo room too, and I have yet to see a customer look for a sign on the door

Just call it the demo room.

Those silly room names only sound cool to marketing and management types. The rest of us just laugh at them. And not in a good way.

ps. Today I am working from the media lab. Although I prefer to call it the spare bedroom

How about the "it was working a minute ago when we tested it but now it's not I'll try switching it off and on again" room.

Here at work a couple of years ago, "they" wanted all the Meeting/Conference rooms renamed... We have Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Earth...

They then converted an empty office into a small meeting room and asked for suggestions for a name...

Uranus was by far the most popular vote....

A few years ago when we were moving to a different area of the office, plans were posted of the proposed layout.

During a coffee fueled late night coding session, we started to name things on the plan, for a laugh. Amongst our wacky ideas, the design room was called 'The Cage!' (two developers go in, one comes out). The managers were housed in Jurasic Park and the top dog's office was named '/dev/null'.

We were taken seriously and low and behold, these things got named as suggested. Only thing was, Pete got an award for doing it. I only said that Pete did it because 1) he wasn't in when I was asked and 2) I thought they were looking for someone to blame and therefore sack
