Planning for success Architecture lends order to rooms and motional sequences. In practice, planning the organisational configuration for a building entails a vast number of decisions on points of detail, ranging from matters of style, building physics and construction engineering to the material properties of an individual product and its specific application. And as the quality of planning hinges on the quality of advice and information available, the success of a project is directly dependent on the flow of communications between manufacturer and customer. With this in mind, Sto's exceptionally comprehensive programme of planning-related services is traditionally complemented by intensive direct contact with architects, planners and craftsmen. And Sto's declared commitment to dialogue and service bears up to scrutiny. Sto employs over 3890 people worldwide in the areas of customer advisory services, building site organisation, logistics, colour and materials planning, presentation media, information and communication.
