The modern workplace has evolved from a dehumanized cubicle landscape to space designed for intelligent

human life. While utility and amenity are vastly improved, wh at advances have been made in building truly

creative communities that spark creativity, knowledge sharing and collaboration? Is the 21st century office

performing at peak?

Clive Wilkinson - The Theatre of Work proposes an intensified relationship between

office

users and the space they occupy. The new workspace should amplify and celebrate the activity of work and of

human community, and in the process, becoming vital and compelling

Theatre.

In defining this new landscape, the author examines global devel opments in workplace thinking, historical

antecedents, the performance touch-points for the new office, and

proposes seven humanistic principles that will

inform a holistic design process that can bring this concept of Theatre to fruition. Each of these principles is

demonstrated through case studies of the work of his renowned design studio, Clive Wilkinson Architects (CWA), with rich iconography, diagrammatic strategy and contextual ingenuity. The outcome of this process, with its

multiple performative la yers, effectively promotes elevating a corporate brief of basic needs and goals to a

profoundly human-centred presentation of 'work as theatre' .
