|
Производитель: "Yale University Press" When the motor car first came to England in the 1890s, it was a luxury item with little practical purpose drivers couldn`t travel very far or very quickly without paved roads or traffic laws. Thus began a transformation that has affected the architecture, infrastructure, and even the natural environment of the country. `Carscapes` relates the history of the car`s impact on the physical environment of England from its early beginnings to the modern motorway network, focusing especially on its architectural influence. The authors offer a detailed look at the litany of structures designed specifically to accommodate cars: garages, gas stations, car parks, factories, and showrooms. Presenting a comprehensive study of these buildings, along with highways, bridges, and signage, `Carscapes` reveals the many overlooked ways in which automobiles have shaped the modern English landscape.
