The 1990s office environment was a blend of emerging technology and classic workplace habits. Desktops hummed with the sound of dial-up modems, and chunky monitors dominated every desk. Windows 95 was the new kid on the block, transforming how we worked and communicated. Fax machines still held their ground, but email was quickly becoming the go-to for project updates and coordination. Architects and engineers poured over blueprints on drafting tables while simultaneously getting acquainted with the early days of CAD software. It was a time when the old-school approach met the digital revolution head-on.
Conference rooms were decked out with overhead projectors and transparency sheets, and presentations were all about perfectly timed handouts. Collaboration often meant gathering around a massive blueprint, marking it up with colored pencils, and debating design details. Rolodexes still had a place of honor next to the phone, and sticky notes covered just about every surface. Office culture embraced casual Fridays and team-building outings, while coffee breaks turned into impromptu brainstorms about how to take advantage of the new tech without losing that hands-on craftsmanship. It was a decade where innovation met tradition, and the possibilities felt endless.
