Offices Designsource

Offices DesignSource presents a comprehensive selection of offices that embody the current revolution in architecture and interior design. The innovative spaces displayed here are characterized by flexible and dynamic floor plans that can be adapted to multiple purposes and functions, yet workers can still carry out their duties in comfort and with efficiency. The spaces featured here range from large corporate buildings designed by architects such as Frank O. Gehry and Richard Meier, smaller projects headed by recognized firms like Claesson Koivisto Rune and Klein Dytham, to offices integrated into domestic spaces by talented young designers. No matter what size space you're designing for, Offices DesignSource provides a wealth of ideas to help you create the perfect office.

Work must be a breeze in such snazzy, streamlined and efficient office spaces. Canizares presents a selection of offices and corporate buildings with flexible and dynamic floor plans that can be adapted to multiple purposes. The book offers page after page illustrating ways that technological advances have been applied to functional solutions and that colors and materials have been used to liberate employees from oppressive grey cubicles.
