Office.Info May 2010
Dear Reader,
In our modern world people have one-two-three places for work: at home, in the office and elsewhere. Read what someone who knows all about it has to say: Gabriele Fischer, founder and editor-in-chief of the business magazine brand eins. In an interview.
Read what the trend report has to say about it. Not just any trend report: the one from Bene. Flip through it or listen in.
The next tip on the topic: Read the article by Ronnie Sambor about "Third Places" – and the challenges posed by working at different locations.
Our new series on the office as living space will tell you how to find the right space concepts for new ways of working. And of course you can read in our Trendletter about what Milan, that bubbling hot spot of trends, has to offer.
We hope you enjoy the various standpoints and interesting perspectives.
Best wishes, the Bene editorial team
PERSONALITIES
The evolving office: In our conversations with current personalities, we examine the claims, clichés and ideals that circulate about our workplaces. Our guest this time is Gabriele Fischer, founder and editor-in-chief of the business magazine brand eins, who explains what the office means to her: creativity, motivation and the proper balance of tension and relaxation.
OFFICE TRENDS
In the hotel, the café, on the train... Knowledge work increasingly is performed outside of the office. It’s high time that we dare to look beyond the office desk: What places do we chose to work in, and why? And how can existing work areas be designed in an advantageous way?
TRENDS
The Milan Furniture Fair from April 14-19 took place this year under the influence of the Icelandic volcanic ash clouds. Airspace was largely closed for flights as of Friday, so whoever wasn't there yet had to go to great lengths to attend.
BOOKS
The Bene trend report "New Work Spaces" deals with the worlds of office and work in the twenty-first century.
