Powell/Kleinschmidt - Interior Architecture

by Werner Blaser

Powell/Kleinschmidt, based in Chicago and acclaimed as one of the 20 best interior design firms of the last 25 years, have designed interiors for corporate, legal, educational, retail, hospitality and residential environments. Underlying their work is always the belief that good design is the result of thoughtful planning, careful attention to detail, cost effective budgeting and impeccable execution. This book documents a selection of their most important interior designs, incorporating environments on a variety of scales for a variety of clients. These have ranged from 500,000 square feet of corporate office space to 1200 square feet residences. What becomes apparent in all the examples presented in this volume is that successful interior design is not just a question of furnishing architecture but is also an aesthetic expression of its function.
