When you are driving into a parking space, have you ever turned your attention to the parking structure itself? Is the design driver-oriented? Or undesirable? Is the parking system obsolete? Fashionable? Energy-saving? Even environmental-friendly? "Car Parks" is a collection of modern parking facilities. It is also full of designs that will alter your view of what a car park should be: Brooks + Sparpa gives you a parking garage full of art; HOK illustrates a prototype for sustainable garages; 1111 Lincoln Road HADID encourages people to leave their cars outside the city in specially designed car parks, and then take a tram to the more inner parts of the city Strasbourg. The car parks featured in this volume can be found in Germany, The Netherlands, Spain, UK, USA, and France. 400 colour photos.
