Target Group-Specific Consulting and Communication Concepts

DETAIL develops holistic communication concepts, as well as innovative concepts for event-related and corporate publishing, in order to support the transfer of knowledge among building-product manufacturers, architects and specialist planners.

Apart from DETAIL congresses, the international architecture competition known as the DETAIL Prize, the DETAIL Product Prize, specialist events and corporate publishing, we also implement highly individual formats for the building-product industry. We act from a place close to the target group, take up trends and innovations in the construction sector and thus serve as a significant platform for current architectural discourse.

Digital Platforms

The publisher’s digital channels  detail.de and detail-online.com  add a crossmedia expansion to the information selection of print products concerning up-to-date news and brief looks at projects that can be freely retrieved online.
Our online shop features all the specialist information DETAIL offers to architects and civil engineers, including DETAIL subscriptions, the DETAIL inspiration online databank, individual issues of DETAIL and books from Edition DETAIL.

DETAIL Inspiration database

The DETAIL Inspiration online database gives users access to more than 4,000 DETAIL project documentations from more than 30 years of DETAIL. By using professional search functions and filter options to find key terms such as building type, material, construction year or the topic of an issue, DETAIL Inspiration supports architects both in their quest for solutions and in their daily work. With every new issue of DETAIL, the databank expands by the current projects in question. Furthermore, the projects can be organized and saved as needed in personal watchlists.

Social Media

Our DETAIL social media channels have around 350,000 followers. Along with our own video content, we will also present reports and posts about your events. New products and publications can be promoted and directly connected with the shop. Facebook posts serve interactive reader communication and are more than a mere “one-way street”. Other activities include Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest etc.
