This image shows the entire environment.
C. Slim's office is above the bridge and R. Tata's
below, with the meeting place in the middle. T
he use of vertical elements in Slim's office and
only horizontal elements in Tata's office
represents the difference in both the clients
aspects of business but alsotheir different
approaches to power and life in general.


Tata's office uses horizontal elements that
increase in size, representing his moving from a
small regional business to a large global network.
Slim's office features a dramatically over sized
doorway to illustrate his monopolising naturing
and his obsession with control.

The dinning table combines a larger section or
proportion of the table dedicated to Slim.Tata
only has around one third of the dining table.
By over sizing the chair and table legs of Slim it
emphasises the dominance of Slim and his hunger
and need for power.

Experiment 3
Carlos Slim
Mexico City Bureau May, 30 2007.
- These days Slim has a lot. His wealth has caused some resentment in a company where 40 percent live in poverty and thousands emigrate each year to seek opportunity in the United States. Both the U.S. and Mexican governments complained recently that Mexico's economic growth is stunted because large conglomerates such as Slim's have too much control.

- The domination of large Mexican conglomerates such as Slim's chokes off growth of smaller companies, says Celso Garrido, an economist at Mexico City's Autonomous Metropolitan University who studies Mexico's business dynasties.

Ratan Tata
Business Week August, 13 2007.
- Tata's business dealings reflect the bolder side of his personality. In the past four years he has embarked on an investment binge that is building his group from a once stodgy regional player into a global powerhouse.

- Tata has overseen sharp downsizing, risky plunges into auto manufacturing and telecom, and a transformation of the conglomerate's insular and lethargic management culture. Now he wants to prove tata companies can compete in the rich West as well as in the unpredictable but hugely promising markets of the developing world. Whats more Tata wants to set out the group solidly on a path to achieving all this before he retires.

Zhang Yin

'The worlds richest women'
- Zhand Yin, a 49 year old paper recycler who has just emerged not only as the richest entreprenear in China, but also as the wealthiest self made woman in the world.

- Despite being almost unknown in the wider world, has suddenly arrived at the top of the of the list with a net worth of $3.4billion. Zhang is in a class of her own.

Explaination

The main ideas behind the design of these spaces ( equality and the value of life) are illustrated for Darwin by using a strong beam of light down the centre of the laboratory symbolising life. The darker dead ends descending down the ramp resemble the wasting of time. For Nightingale equality is depicted in the design of the ramp. The meeting place for the two people is represented by the use of two strong lights within the middle space.

Final - Nightingale/ Darwin
