Hardcover. Condition: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. Unsere Arbeitswelt verändert sich fundamental durch Globalisierung und Digitalisierung sowie neue Unternehmenskulturen und Arbeitsformen. Diese Entwicklungen bieten Unternehmen und Mitarbeitern große Chancen, bringen jedoch auch erhebliche Herausforderungen für die Architektur mit sich. Anhand herausragender Beispiele zeigt das Werk, wie sich Arbeitsumgebungen an diese neuen Anforderungen anpassen. Weltbekannte Architekten realisieren Projekte für innovative Firmen und beleuchten das architektonisch-ästhetische Spannungsfeld. Beispiele sind Rem Koolhaas für McKinsey & Company in Hongkong und 3xn für die Saxo Bank. Die Analyse umfasst individuelle Arbeitsplätze, Besprechungsräume und repräsentative Foyers sowie informelle Orte wie Teeküchen und Pausenräume. Zudem werden unkonventionelle Rahmenbedingungen dokumentiert, die den Arbeitsplatz attraktiver machen, wie betriebsinterne Kinderbetreuung und Bio-Kantinen. Spannende Beispiele finden sich in Hauptsitzen globaler Unternehmen, innovationsfreudigen Mittelständlern und kleinen Kreativbüros. Auch temporäre Strukturen wie Incubators für Start-ups und Co-Working-Spaces werden berücksichtigt. Mit einem anregenden Überblick richtet sich das Werk an Architekten, Designer und Unternehmen, die ihr Arbeitsumfeld neu definieren möchten.…
