Full of images, ideas and inspiration for the office of the future, this brilliant new title looks at international trends in office buildings and interiors from a totally new perspective. The Creative Office shows how architecture, design and technology have become inextricably linked and predicts dramatic and unparalleled change over the next five years. Modern management's shift towards looser ways of working has forced architects and designers to focus on spaces that are more adaptable, spaces that induce more creative and cognitive patterns of work. At the heart of the book are case studies of 40 pioneering design projects, drawn from practices all over the world, each one extensively illustrated with plans, drawings and photographs. Accessible and intelligent, The Creative Office focuses on offices which have been designed to promote team work and to accommodate remote, virtual and mobile requirements using newest technology and the very latest in space planning concepts.
