Namahn is a human-centered design consultancy based in Brussels, Belgium. Considered a pioneer in human-centered design in Belgium,〔Leijnse, Bruno. ("Webschrijven" – Trends, September 14, 1995 ) retrieved 17 October 2012〕 Namahn is primarily active in the fields of service design and safety-critical design. Clients for Namahn's consultancy are mainly: * significant Belgian companies in the financial, technology, healthcare and utilities sectors * multinationals with their headquarters in Belgium, active in high-tech industries and catering to a global market〔Interfaces, Vol. 74, Spring 2008, pp. 14-16〕 * local, regional/national and European governmental institutions == Premises == The original neoclassical townhouse〔Ancienne imprimerie Maison Goemaere (Brussels Inventaire du patrimoine architectural (inventory of architectural heritage) ) retrieved 17 October 2012〕 at the front of the property dates from the 1840s, and was the home to Maison Goemaere, printers and publishers to the Belgian Court, until the early 1990s. After Namahn acquired the building, award winning Belgian architect Wim Cuyvers 〔Wim Cuyvers (Archilab ) retrieved 17 October 2012〕 was in charge of two phases of renovation works that respect the integrity of the original structure while showing ''architecture's ability for freedom, inspiration and playfulness''.〔Ken Van Synghel. "Aha Architectuur" in (De Standaard ), Brussels, 1 September 2009〕 A central hangar〔see ''Flanders Architectural Yearbook'', 2010〕 with a huge brick stove and 90m2 wooden dance floor functions like a village square, with the other spaces clustered around it. These include a design studio, a small walled garden and a row of half glazed, wood-panelled cubicles that were originally the printers' offices. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Namahn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
