STUDIOS Architecture has many years of experience in making communities for corporations. In the early years, much of STUDIOS' work was concerned with the design of corporate campuses. The firm's aim was to humanise the workplace and provide a face to these 'little villages' it designed. STUDIOS' architectural language is now more varied to fit a diverse practice where the boundaries between work, culture, technology and society have been blurred; yet is grounded in a sense of humanity. Featured projects in this publication includea selection of the firm's corporate works as well as civic and institutional buildings.

One of the world's truly international designers, Michael Graves shares his inspirations and design philosophy in this superb addition to the exclusive IMAGES Millennium Series. Graves, who holds the chair of architecture at Princeton University, is one of the world's most respected and influential architects. This book features office and mixed-use space; hotels, recreation and commercial; cultural and civic; universities; and residential design. With colour, figure, pattern and a sense of formal play, Graves' buildings are immediately recognisable and accessible. His name is also synonymous with international design houses Alessi, Baldinger, Duravit, Valli & Valli and Steuben. Здания, спроектированные Майклом Грейвсом, являющиеся предметом для обсуждения уже несколько десятилетий, начали становиться частью общественного создания после того, как они стали характерной чертой очертаний горизонта по всему миру. Что же сделал Грейвс, что обеспечит ему место в мировой истории архитектуры? Прежде всего, это то, что он взял крупномасштабный дизайн надоевшего образца позднего Модернизма, что не умаляет его художественных достижений, изменил цвет, форму, добавил ощущение внешней игры образца, что сделало его здания более узнаваемыми и воспринимаемыми на расстоянии.
