Hello there!
I'm not sure if this post should be here or not, but...

I live in Spain, and I won't go to USA in the short period, but I love this company so much that I wanted to see the front of the offices using Google Streetview. But... I can only see a big building with a sign that says "Compact Information Systems".

Is this really the front face of your offices?

Thanks for your responses.

The images on Google Streetview are probably old. I now the pictures from my street (admittedly, not in Seattle) are about 2 years old. Since Paizo moved offices recently, it could be a while before Streetview chatches up to them.

Perhaps that was Lisa's plan all along.....

So, Paizo is in that huge "u" shape building? Any site where I could see photos about the front of its offices... or the interior?

Our office building is the pretty standard fare so there isn't really any reason to have pictures anywhere. Nothing unusual but the people inside :)

I once had an interview in the other building on that same plaza. I thought about going inside and harrassing y'all, but then, that probably wouldn't go over too well. I listened carefully, but I couldn't hear the roars of James's dinosaurs. Must've been sleeping.

Or... EATING! Good thing you didn't interrupt them.

There's no Paizo sign, and we rent the space from the company on the other half of the building; they're the ones with the sign. If you've ever been in an office before, you've seen the inside of ours. The only difference is that there are RPG books everywhere and plushie monsters and Cthulhus and things all over the place instead of lame motivational posters.

The idea that the name Cthulhu can have a plural form is downright terrifying!

I think that some decent motivational posters would do the Paizo team a lot of good. Perhaps ones featuring motivational advice from the iconic characters. Or ones featuring dinosaurs. That would definitely lift productivity.

We used to have a lot of motivational posters, but they got left behind at the old office.

I... I guess we weren't motivated to take them?

They belonged to the old landlord. (Thankfully, they were mainly confined to the elevator lobby.)

Sara Marie did give Paizo Blog readers a mostly textual tour of the offices a couple months ago... although she did get distracted, and didn't quite finish.

Thanks for the posts!
Ei! There is so much Paizo Staff here that this resembles the offices! ^_^

I prefer Cthulhi.

Nope, Cthulhu is most certainly a neuter fourth declension noun (Cthulhu, -us), so it should be Cthulhua. ;) :P
