New Lobbies and Waiting Rooms (Loft Publications)

Beyond their role of reception area, lobbies and waiting rooms present an opportunity for designers to create a dynamic space that reinforces a company's brand and personality. This gloriously illustrated volume covers 45 projects, divided into three categories:

• Commercial (hotels, day spas, sports centers, senior centers, assisted living facilities)
• Public (museums, schools, government buildings)
• Corporate (offices, medical clinics)
• Each project contains detailed architectural plans. The book also contains a directory of architects.
