Overview

Originally published in 1994, as part of the Ethnoscapes: Current Challenges in the Environmental Social Sciences series, reissued now with a new series introduction, Architecture, Ritual Practice and Co-determination in the Swedish Office is a case study of Swedish office buildings and examines how they have been influenced by spatial aspects of traditional culture in Scandinavia. It suggests a theoretical framework for architecture by casting the ritual form of Swedish offices into three distinct modes of expression.
