Description

The Commercial Offices Handbook offers expert guidance on the creation and procurement of commercial offices, together with an overview of the office industry at large. Targeted at creators, builders, and occupiers of office space, the breadth of material covered in this title ensures it will become essential reading for all professionals and students of the built environment.Seeking to define and illustrate best practice for the improvement of both the physical form of offices and the operational efficiency of office space, this book comfortably supports the move towards research and development which the office industry has now begun to follow.Rab Bennetts (Bennetts Associates), Andrew Hall (Arup), Paul Morrell (PruPIM), Richard Hyams and Ken Shuttleworth (Foster and Partners) are amongst the many featured experts who write about their own office buildings and projects in this informative and illustrated text, which includes chapters on Interior Design, Structure and Integrated Landscape, amongst others.
