See more

(11/17/06) Today, the parameters of shop design have expanded exponentially. No longer is the retail landscape crafted only for shopping convenience and to reinforce brand identity. It has evolved to reflect the role of shops as a public space where we spend a large part of our leisure time. For this reason, architects and designers are increasingly pushing the boundaries when designing shop interiors. The result: the creation of unique and spectacular spaces within the city; spaces which engage and entertain even the most jaded browsers and add to the city's dynamism.See less

See more

(11/17/06) Today's prevailing design aesthetic is minimalism: clean lines, uncluttered spaces, and simple but elegant materials. Rather than relying on bold fabrics and an overabundance of accessories, designers are allowing surfaces themselves to determine color, pattern, and texture. The perfect tool for this new approach is The Surface Texture Bible, which offers more than 800 samples for surfaces, furnishings, and finishes. The book is a comprehensive resource for choosing metals, glass, plaster, stone, wood, paper, cork, and many other materials to create visual interest in projects large and small. Appropriate for both amateur and professional interior designers, this handy guide features more than 250 pages of large-format color and texture swatches. Also included is essential advice on installing, maintaining, and cleaning finishes, information about product safety, and a list of email addresses for major international suppliers. With a spiral-bound, easy-to-use format, The Surface...See less

(11/17/06) The world of work refuses to stand still: new technologies have a huge impact on office design and now that a great many employees have the freedom to do their work anywhere -- on the road, at home, with clients -- the general role of the office has altered significantly.
