Product Information
All to often, the design of contemporary industrial structures lacks a deeper quality than being just variations on the 'big box' type, preferred for economy and efficiency. Industrial Building Planning and Design touches on the different aspects of using architectural quality to go further than the purely functional by including bioclimatic aspects, workplace design and urban and landscape integration. But also shows the possibilities of simply creating good design with modest means as with few exceptions industrial architecture is created from low budgets and standardised components. This makes the challenge of the designer all the greater and proves that architectural quality is not primarily driven by investment but by imagination and invention. * Includes detailed chapters on Design Guidelines for Industrial Buildings together with examples of both single and multi-storeyed Industrial Buildings.Product Identifiers
