About the book
A necessary evil or a fascinating design task? This book is about making building components and spaces accessible in the horizontal and vertical direction while taking into account a wide variety of requirements. When architects make it into the pivotal element of their concepts, they often create compelling yet surprising room constellations: Spectacular lifts and escalators, unusual floor plan arrangements or stairway sculptures that define the space provide staging for the required pathways. Circulation areas take on the characteristics of an amenity and become an exciting spatial experience as well as a crucial criterion of a successful design. The separation between circulation areas and space dissolves, because circulation areas become a space of sojourn and communication.
