A lot of people aspire to work for Google, even if only to be surrounded everyday by the vibrant and eclectic interiors that their offices boast. Imagine using slides to go downstairs instead of using stairs. Imagine moveable walls made of whiteboards so you can write all over the floors and ceilings.

A Dubai-based youth organisation called GYEM is planning to set up a youth incubation hub — similar to the style of the famous Google offices.

The space, set to open in January 2014, will be called ‘The GYEM HQ’ — designed in a modern way, yet still infused with local culture.

The hub’s location is currently undisclosed, however, GYEM had a few other surprises, one of which was the launch of its ‘Indiegogo’ platform on October 5.

‘Indiegogo’ is a US-based crowdfunding platform dedicated to collecting donations to fund what matters to people. Aiming to raise $25,000 (Dh91,832), all proceeds will go towards the outfitting of the event room at the GYEM HQ.
