Description

Offices, as a category of building, have faced many challenges and undergone dramatic changes in the last few years due to increasing economic globalisation, new information and communication technologies, and ecological considerations which all make demands on this branch of architecture.

With some 70 significant international examples taken from the last five years (including examples from Norman Foster, Frank O. Gehry, Thomas Herzog, Morphosis MVRDV, Renzo Piano, SOM), the authors and editors show how the new issues facing architects can be resolved. In addition to introductory texts there are also thematic contributions by experts in various disciplines on related topics including the new models of work organization, faade technology, climatic regulation, and lighting.
