Description

The tried and tested Daab formula: case studies shown mainly through photographs interspersed with plans and a small amount of accompanying text.This title features 56 transport related constructions, organised into such categories as parking areas, roadside buildings, bridges and infrastructure. There are such singular structures as the 'Pterodactyl' car park in Culver City, USA, whose jagged and splintered lines might make you think reality is unravelling, a temporary highway church - a big white consecrated cuboid - in Germanyand such wonderful bridges as the 'Windtunnel' in Valencia, USA and the Channel Bridge - water over water- in Magdeburg, Germany.

The photography is of the usual good quality, conveying the essential dreamlike and secretive character of structures the purpose of which is to facilitate movement.
