OCi is gaining weight -
But we’re not complaining.
What I mean is: This particular issue of Office & Contract International (OCi) is a heavyweight in terms of content.
This title was launched last year as an answer to the growing sophistication of the international contract market and the lack of a business-to-business magazine exclusively devoted to commercial interior design and solutions. Target readership consists of commercial interior designers, architects, facility managers, project managers, wholesalers, distributors, retailers of commercial interiors products and other related to the trade.
We have persevered, persisted and today, continue to stay true to that objective. Some of the most influential keynote speakers at major exhibitions around the world are invited to write specifically for this group of readers. In this issue, we offer articles that touch on the complex yet integrated collaboration structure between project managers and furniture representatives, dealers and designers.
I thank the following veterans who recognise the value of OCi and contributed to this issue:
• Vega Overby (IIDA, LEED®AP) Associate at Hickok Cole Architects
• Elizabeth Hurley, Strategic Account Manager – Northeast at Kimball Office
• Debby Allen, Principal at DRH Designs
• Daniel A Brathal, President at The Workplace Design Consortium
OCi also promised to offer trend insights and we have never forgotten that. We spoke to two leading Malaysian office furniture makers on the hot topic of hot desking and sought their opinions on just how popular this phenomenon is in Asia. (See interviews with Euro Holdings Bhd and Oasis Furniture on pages 8-10.)
On top of that, do check out the freshest innovations for 2010 from Haworth in our Industry News section. We also feature winners from the IIDEX/Neocon Canada Innovation Award 2009.
If there is something in addition you’d like to see featured, or share, please send your comments our way. As I said, it’s a weight-gain we’re more than happy to put on.
