Factories used to hover on the forgotten outskirts of cities, bland
heaps of brick and concrete. But today’s factories are more
than just containers for industrial activity. Worker-friendly and
environmentally respectful, the remarkable buildings featured
in Factories & Offi ce Buildings represent the best in factory
design. Striking yet sensible factories, offi ces, warehouses, even
waste treatment plants, are shown in full-color photos along
with construction details that show the present and the future of
industrial planning.
