Constant technological advances and the current focus on ecological considerations have had a strong impact on the construction of office buildings as well as the interior design of work spaces. Further decisive aspects beyond the purely functional considerations of work organization are corporate identity, the creation of a positive and motivating working environment and very often also representative functions. Masterpieces: Office Architecture and Design presents about 60 outstanding projects from all over the world. The reader will find carefully selected projects from international established architectural firms as well as promising newcomers, documenting today?s different developments regarding the construction and design of offices. This richly illustrated volume is part of the new trilingual series in square format ?Masterpieces?.
