This is the first comprehensive international survey of one of the most neglected but most important building types of the modern era: the parking garage. An introduction sets out the history and architectural significance of these buildings and their relevance today, and is followed by four main chapters that define the most influential aspects of parking design: elevations and facade; construction and materiality; the use of light; and experimentation. The book's wide-ranging importance and detailed plans make it an indispensable and inspirational resource for students, professional architects, engineers, urban planners and developers.

This is the first major international survey of parking garages ever published. Multi-levelled like a car park itself, the book presents visual essays, project spreads and case studies that feature ground-breaking historical and recent structures in photographs and drawings.
From the iconic Marina City towers in Chicago to the latest robotic technology at the Volkswagen Autotürme in Germany, the author shows how the form and function of the parking garage has been hugely influential not only on generations of architects but on popular culture, capturing the imagination of novelists, photographers and film-makers.

The limitations on the availability of space force both companies and designers to give priority to an office's functions in the design process. Projects that confront a need to scale down generally share common features. With respect to furnishings, for example, internal partitions are highly important. New materials and light structures have made inflexible cubicles a relic of the past. This book examines the challenges posed by 26 design projects for small offices and examines the solutions reached by various world-famous designers and architects by drawing on their ingenuity and creativity.
