Design ideas and approaches abound in this Commercial Design Trends edition. Check out global architecture firm Woods Bagot’s winning design for a Design Excellence Competition regarding the 131 Henry Street, Penrith redevelopment. Not sure what creating a fun call centre environment might be like? We feature a colourful version here themed on a beachside setting. Plus, is the humble book a thing of the past? Far from it, if our surprising featured library is anything to go by – everything from solar orientation to maximising use for all is considered. Plus, how does New Zealand’s natural relaxing vibe into an office environment – a collection of free-standing acoustic screens succeeds on an aesthetic and acoustic front.
