Description

Michael Crosbies theme for his latest book is the architects own office. As with most professions, first impressions are paramount; architects who design their own offices are effectively putting their own reputation on the line in a very public manner. Clients may assess a firm's style, scope of work and capabilities on the design of its office and commissions can be won or lost based on that vital first impression. Architects' own offices can therefore be effective sales vehicles for their potential clients and speak volumes about the style, ability and culture of the firm.

The book features 40 carefully chosen projectsthat range from the humble and low-key to the grand and opulent; from the refurbished office shrouded in the mists of time to the state-of-the-art futuristic office; from the whimsical to the practical. Each brings into focus the importance of the architects own office and the various roles it plays. Illustrated with text, plans and images, featured practices include Steven Ehrlich Architects, HOK (LA and San Fran), Atelier pro, Bohlin Cywinski Jackson and many more.
