Office Hour; 72 ground-breaking projects of office Architecture firms; 272 p. w. 700 figs.

A far cry from the dull cubiclees of years past, today's designed offices are unique spaces reflecting both company philosophy and identity. While responding to specific needs of the organization and employees, the offices featured in Office Hour are gorgeous, on-of-a-kind, playful, colorful, and collaborative spaces that completely redefine the word "Office". Replete with photographs and floor plans of offices including such elements as "Gym", "Inspiration Library", "Concert Venue", a "Secret Bookcase Door", "Bike Parking", and "Game Lounge", this title is the most comprehensive volume of groundbreaking office design to date and an invaluable resource book for designers. Effective spatial organization is balanced with a burgeoning respect for employees' need to have fun while doing a job they love - and the increased morale that results. The gorgeous projects featured in Office Hour carefully consider elements such as lighting, color, and materials; entire offices are built of recycled cardboard, and materials such as wood and metal are reinvented within these innovative, immersive, and completely unified spaces.
