Course Highlights
The thorough set of lecture notes use many pictures and diagrams to explain the use of architectural design in business. The presentations by professors, architects, and managers are supplemented by suggested readings.
Course Description
While no businesses succeed based on their architecture or space design, many fail as a result of inattention to the power of spatial relationships. This course demonstrates through live case studies with managers and architects the value of strategic space planning and decision making in relation to business needs. The course presents conceptual frameworks for thinking about architecture, communication and organizations.
This course is offered during the Sloan Innovation Period (SIP), which is a one-week period at the MIT Sloan School of Management that occurs midway through each semester.
