  Let's not beat around the bush, Covid made a total mess for musicians, producers, bands, DJs, road crew, venue owners, lighting engineers, and anyone else involved in the industry. 
  The main lesson that I learnt from it all… Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. 
  Now, during the aftermath of it all, we see the cost-of-living crisis, and now a recession… so, we need to find new ways to protect ourselves from anything that could endanger our livelihoods again in the future.

  A smooth ride through the golden age of car travel, looking at both its cultural and architectural impact on the world.
  The culture of road travel and the road trip is arguably best reflected in the stationary spots found along the way. Christopher Beanland journeys through these built environments the world over, whose sole purpose is to cater to cars and those who drive them, and examines what makes them so alluring.
  Illustrated with 65 stunning photographs, Architecture For Cars explores everything from the brutalist fashions of listed UK petrol stations to the quirky and colourful drive-thrus found across the US. If you're interested in the autobahn churches of Germany, why Ed Ruscha felt drawn to painting gas stations, or you just enjoy the aesthetics of car-centric architecture across the globe, this book is for you.
  Also included are essays on wider topics such as roadside signs, drive-in malls and retail parks, cars on film, and roads that never were. This latest architectural deep-dive from Christopher Beanland focuses mainly on the 20th century, with an additional optimistic look towards the future: hopefully an electric vehicle-led existence will herald a new, greener 'golden age' for cars.
