  • Employees in a central London office work dilligently alongside the reminders of vacations that colleagues and friends have taken. Picture postcard souvenirs have been lined up as a display of the perfect holiday when they have returned to work to put their shoulders to the grindstone. It is a scene of wishful thinking, of 'wish you were here!' and of looking forward to the next break from the toil of their careers so by showing the idyllic locations of their dreams with these visual reminders, can they imagine the beauty of these places: Tenby in south Wales, the Lake District in northern England and a country hall set in, perhaps, the Scottish  hills. An out of focus worker stares intensely into his PC, perhaps thinking of escapism and a life outside these four walls.

  • Greeting visitors to Ernst & Young's Norman Foster-designed 385,000 square foot European headquarters is a lady employee, one of a small team of 4 receptionists seated in front of a shining art work sculpture by MCM Architecture Limited. This is a scene of understated efficiency of a modern office environment. The female stares intensely into her Dell PC computer monitor before looking to help newcomers. She looks presentable and well-dressed to reflect the casual sincerity that E & Y portray to the world of accountancy and auditing whose 114,000 employees are in 700 locations across 140 countries around the world. They have currently invested in approximately 500,000 Pounds of office art.

  • A businessman stands in mid-afternoon sunshine during a break beneath the Bank of England in Bank triangle in the City of London. The Bank of England (formally the Governor and Company of the Bank of England) is the central bank of the United Kingdom and the model on which most modern central banks have been based. Established in 1694 acted as the English Government's banker, and to this day it still acts as the banker for HM Government. The Bank was privately owned and operated from its foundation in 1694. It was subordinated to the Treasury after 1931 in making policy and was nationalised in 1946. In 1997 it became an independent public organisation, wholly owned by the Treasury Solicitor on behalf of the Government, with independence in setting monetary policy.

  • A lady concentrates in a cluttered office unit beneath corporate artwork in Ernst & Young's Norman Foster-designed building. The oval-shaped picture depicts an esasperated-looking female rolling her eyes to the ceiling while her contemporary below stares down at her laptop surrounded by the paraphernalia of her accounting London job. Dressed in an open-neck shirt and wearing glasses, the woman at work is busy and preoccupied with the job in hand of auditing a company's accounts. Despite all the 385,000 square feet in the European headquarters on the River Thames, there is no spare space in this tiny office that she shares with another employee. The Fine Art has been supplied by Anderson O'Day and E & Y have invested in 500,000 Pounds of office art for their 114,000 employees in 700 locations across 140 countries around the world.

  • A lone male figure makes his way along a corridor of power in the newly-opened European Parliament building in Brussels, Belgium. As the new head-quarters of the EU and an administrative home to the Members of European Parliament (MEPs), it is a contemporary architectural symbol of infuence and modernity. We see the man walking towards an open atrium. The viewer can see three floors though there are many more out of sight and on two of the levels there are TV screens with the stars denoting the number of member states at that time. The interior is grid-like with warm and inviting lighting, making for a productive environment in which office workers can feel comfortable when dealing with European political business.

  • Separated by colour-coded floors, employees of the auditing company Ernst & Young, participate in informal meetings in E & Y's Norman Foster-designed 385,000 square foot E & Y's European headquarter offices at More London, London England. Those on the top blue level 8 may be more senior to those below on the 7th purple storey of this tall, upright scene of modernity. It is busier on the upper floor then the two men beneath. Subsequent levels are vacant. Architecturally, the term atrium comes from Latin: a large and light central hall or reception of a house where guests were greeted. The depth and height of all levels from near the top to almost the bottom give a sense of vertigo, a dizzying perspective on seniority and success as opposed to lower-ranking middle-management.

  • A female office worker pauses to make a call on her mobile phone, on a wide walkway in Ernst & Young's Norman Foster-designed 385,000 square foot European headquarter at More London, London England. All other walkways above and below are empty and holding her head, the lady has sought privacy from her open-plan workstation and stands on her own. Architecturally, the term atrium comes from Latin: A large and light central hall or reception of a house where guests were greeted. The depth and height of all levels from near the top to almost the bottom give a sense of vertigo, a dizzying perspective. E & Y employs 114,000 people, in 700 locations across 140 countries around the world.

  • Separated by four floors, two employees of the auditing company Ernst & Young, make their way along walkways in the main atrium of E & Y's European headquarter offices at More London, London England. Striding confidently between offices, the two people are unaware of each other's presence but make their way from right to left of this tall, upright scene of modernity. The senior person on top may have an advantage from better opportunities, the low-ranking worker below may be needing to rise up the ranks. Morning sunlight floods through the green tinted glass that overlooks Tower Bridge on the River Thames. The term atrium comes from Latin: a large and light central hall or reception of a house where guests were greeted. The depth and height of all levels from near the top to almost the bottom give a sense of vertigo, a dizzying perspective.
