COMMERCIAL DESIGN TRENDS Workplace design has never been in such a state of flux as it is currently. First came the death of the office, then the end of the cubicle – and now even the very notion of an allocated work space is fast disappearing. In this issue of Commercial Design Trends, we look at recent fit-outs that provide staff with a variety of spaces to suit the range of tasks they may perform at different times, while at the same time engendering a company’s culture and business strategy. Our Project Portfolio also includes Gensler’s Shanghai Tower. Not only does this project check in as the world’s second tallest building, its unique twisted and tapering form resulted in some remarkable reductions in construction costs and energy consumption. All Commercial Design Trends content – and much, much more – can also be accessed online at trendsideas.com. Head there now to use our extensive online resource of top local and international projects and products.
