Hardcover, xi + 151 pages, b&w illustrations in text, NOT ex-library. Printed and bound in the UK. Clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound.

Spatial Analysis: It explores the move away from "one size fits all" open-plan layouts towards "activity-based" settings. The book was highly regarded within the architecture and interior design communities for its evidence-based approach to workplace strategy.

Its focus on the "changing workforce" remains highly relevant, particularly as many of its predictions regarding flexible and hybrid working models were accelerated by the events of the following decade. It is frequently cited in design and management curricula as a foundational text for understanding the sociology of the workplace. …
