Total Office Design. 50 Contemporary Workplaces

Architects and interior designers face unprecedented challenges when designing contemporary workplaces. Employers still want offices that will inspire staff and impress clients, but the design brief must now take into account environmental requirements, constraints on resources and changes in how, where and when we work.

With nearly 500 detailed illustrations, plans and photographs, “Total Office Design” is the definitive professional, international resource for workplace design. With 50 projects from around the world – from Selgas Cano’s semi-subterranean, tubular office in a forest near Madrid, to the ‘living skin’ of Harmonia 57 in São Paolo – this book brims with creative and intelligent ideas that every workplace designer needs to know.

The book is organized into separate sections featuring small, medium and large projects, each one fully illustrated with photographs, drawings and plans. Details of the design team, budget and specification for each project appear in an extensive listings section.
