The Car in 2035- Mobility Planning for the Near Future is an artful and
refreshingly multifaceted view of the future of mobility, focusing on
the car, the street, and public policy in Southern California. In this
collection of essays and images, the car is viewed as both a challenge
and benefit to our neighborhoods, cities, and suburbs. Despite rising
fuel prices, the automobile will be Southern California s primary form
of transportation in 2035 because the region's population will continue
to be dispersed widely, and the car offers the best access to the area s
tremendous diversity of economic, social, recreational, and cultural
opportunities. But the infrastructure will need to accommodate a
heterogeneous mix of modes of transportation, including more cars on the
road than today. In The Car in 2035, a lively mix of auto industry
experts, planners, designers, artists, researchers, and architects
contemplates how we will adapt our cars and their context so we can
continue to enjoy the freedom and benefits of individual mobility in the
future. Contributors include John Thackara; Michael Webb of Archigram;
John Chris Jones, author of Design Methods; and Jeremy Gilbert-Rolfe and
Geoffrey Wardle of the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena.
