Workspace/Workscape - CANCELLED

The rapid evolution of the office environment driven by the new forces of information technology in business made many standards of office design as obsolete as typewriter ribbons. Contemporary designers have not only embraced the dynamics of "the new office," but purposefully designed into their new offices the need for ongoing transformation in the workplace.

These new office design principles coalesce around high concepts of information technology: mobility as style; dynamics over hierarchy; productivity as design, and leads to the ultimate-scale business tool, the "thinking building" that combines environmentally sensitive architecture and information systems.

This group of working designers from a leading Italian office design group, CMR Studio, views the development of the modern office from a historical perspective starting after World War II and track essential work space elements forward to a future where the pace and tools of work will surely continue to demand new office design solutions.

Progetto CMR is a leading office planning service with locations in Milan, Rome, Athens, Paris, and Madrid.
