An engrossing book looking forward at the design of transportation in the 21st century - from bikes, parachutes, cars and shoes to high-tech urban train systems - from the industrial design program at the university in Graz, Austria, considered by many the world's academic leader. The eco-green cover of this small but densely packed, copiously illustrated, full-color book shows the environmental mindset of the projects, which were developed from an exhibition at 2010 Designforum in Vienna. A delightful collection of mind-expanding ideas, the projects apply the latest design thinking to the problem of getting around. The Graz program, headed by distinguished designer/educator Gerhard Heufler (represented in the MoMA NY design collection), consults with Audi, BMW, Porsche Design Studio and other design-focused industrial giants.
