Offices

The work environment is experiencing an upheaval - offices that combine personality, functionality, and just the right atmosphere are currently in demand. Customized company spaces create optimal work conditions that also contribute to the motivation and productivity of the employees. At the same time, they also act as the company's calling card, becoming an important part of company culture. The business philosophy is reflected not only in the choice of location, but also in the personalized interior design. To fulfill the high demands of office design and construction, architects and interior designers have developed innovative ideas for places of business, setting new standards for corporate architecture. Offices presents about a 100 successful, exciting solutions. The richly illustrated volume demonstrates how articulated space concepts in combination with selected materials and meticulously planned details create offices of vastly divergent character. The reader is introduced to prominent examples from internationally acclaimed stars of the architectural world, as well as to lesser-known projects from young design and construction practices.

Since the early times of travelling architecture does constitute an important force of attraction and a vital element in marketing. Until today destinations try to increase their market positions by means of the development and restoration of the built environment. However, architecture is characterised by an enduring presence with impacts on visitors and residents alike. Hence, on a sustainable basis it needs to chime with place and situation. Where modesty might be suitable for one destination, spectacular architecture could be a transformation catalyst or unique selling proposition for another. Destination developers have to be aware of the local requirements as well as the reciprocal relationship between the modern practice of tourism and the built environment. To address the complexity of architectural tourism, throughout the book this topic is subject of a controversial discussion and approached with a contextual and interdisciplinary view.
