The accelerating rate of technological innovation is rapidly changing the workplace. This program offers several interpretations of work environments by leading contemporary designers, such as the “virtual” office by Gaetano Pesce, the modular office by Ross Lovegrove, the “Less” office by Jean Nouvel, the mobile office by Antonio Citterio, and the office of the future by Michele de Lucchi. Jonathan Ive, chief designer of the iMac, discusses the tool integral to all of these spaces: the computer. Commentary from the designers complements a stylish presentation of their work. Not available in French-speaking Canada. (50 minutes)
