Klimawandel und Ressourcenverknappung, aber auch der stetig steigende Verkehrsaufwand machen es unabdingbar, neue Loesungen fuer eine umweltschonende und menschenfreundliche Mobilitaet zu entwickeln. Der fluessige und sichere UEbergang von einer Mobilitaetsform zur anderen, die Nutzung unterschiedlicher individueller, geteilter oder oeffentlicher Verkehrsmittel auf einem Weg, muss kuenftig komfortabel und einfach moeglich sein, um Menschen ein positives Mobilitaetserlebnis zu vermitteln. Bereits heute gibt es Konzepte und realisierte Infrastrukturprojekte, die in beispielhafter Weise die Zukunft einer nachhaltigen und vernetzten Mobilit.t greifbar machen. Im Fokus dieses Bands steht die Bedeutung der Gestaltung: UEber wegweisende Projekte aus den Bereichen Design, Architektur und Staedtebau werden anhand von Fotos, Planzeichnungen und Kurztexten vorgestellt. Mit diesem internationalen UEberblick zeigt Mobility Design nicht nur den aktuellen Stand nachhaltiger Mobilitaetssysteme auf, sondern widmet sich der Mobilitaet als einer der wichtigsten Gestaltungsaufgaben der Zukunft. Mit Projekttexten von Markus Hieke, Christian Holl und Martina Metzner Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.

Climate change and increasing resource scarcity together with rising traffic volumes force us to develop new environmentally friendly and people-oriented mobility options. In order to provide a positive mobility experience, the transition from one mobility mode to another must be managed smoothly and safely, and individual, shared or public means of transportation must become convenient and easy. Conceptual as well as existing infrastructure projects provide models for future sustainable and connected mobility. This volume focuses on the importance of design, introducing through photos, plans, and brief texts over 60 groundbreaking projects from the disciplines of product design, architecture, and urban planning. With this international overview Mobility Design portrays the current situation of sustainable mobility systems, while identifying mobility as one of the most important design tasks of the future.
With project texts by Markus Hieke, Christian Holl, and Martina Metzner
