越来越多的人不仅在家办公，还在其它地方办公。工作场所的灵活性成了雇主和员工的关键要求。因此，这一现象对建筑师和设计师（他们中的许多人也开始在家办公）来说构成了新的挑战，他们需要拿出富有创意的解决方案让客户能够改造他们的空间以适应不同的需求：从多功能的工作室到将工作和家庭生活相结合的家。本书按主题分成5个章节，探索了将工作场所整合成居家环境的各种各样的方式。每一种设计都迎合了空间、客户和工作性质的独特需求，并探讨了21世纪工作和家庭生活不断变化的新问题。

Growing numbers of us work not only from home, but from anywhere; job flexibility has become a key requirement for employers and workers alike. This, in turn, has created new challenges for architects and designers – many of whom themselves start out working from home – who are tackling demand head on with innovative solutions that allow clients to transform their spaces to suit a wide range of needs, from multifunctional studios to homes that seamlessly combine work and family life.

Divided into five thematic sections, this book explores the exciting variety of ways that the workplace can be integrated into the domestic environment. From stand-alone multifunctional furniture to mobile room dividers and dynamic solutions that fold out or pop up to create new work areas, each design addresses the unique needs of the space, client and working practices for which it was required, and tackles new questions about the rapidly evolving relationship between work and domestic life in the 21st century.

This essential and timely resource for homeworkers and practitioners offers fresh ideas for how to strike the perfect balance between living and working at home.
