Corporate architecture
Corporate architecture is an architectonic discipline which focuses on designing and constructing buildings, spaces or environments with the aim of meeting the needs of a business community (a corporation). It is a physical expression of a company's corporate image and plays a role in the perceptions and behaviours of customers and employees.[1]
Principles and Strategies[]
Corporate architecture can contribute to a firm’s corporate heritage by creating distinct symbols which aid in the transformation of a generic brand into an iconic one.[2] The continuous use and pursuit of specific architectural features can imbue a company with “heritage distinctiveness” if it has continued to exist over many years[3]
