The 21st century business cannot reorganize for collaborative innovation in a physical environment designed for 19th or 20th century business practices. Based on years of experience designing and using collaborative environments, the authors offer the principles they have developed to create business environments that serve the human mind, body and spirit—and facilitate collaboration and creativity. Readers are asked not to copy the principles outlined in the book but to use these principles and critical appraisal of more than 300 photos to create enduring design principles to inform their own practices or use of their office environments. Environment Matters: THE Secret Ingredient for Innovation is a thoughtful and valuable look at a dimension of facilitating collaboration and innovation that is overlooked in standard business books.
