The 8 most beautiful parking lots in the world

With the rapid growth of urban population, traditional parking lots have begun to outgrow the capacity of the rapidly increasing number of vehicles. In the following case, the integration of design elements not only solves the functional needs of the parking lot, but also brings people a more comfortable and convenient parking experience, extending the potential of the "parking lot of the future".

1. Eskenazi Hospital Parking Lot, USA

The longitudinal perspective central double spiral ramp saves as much space as possible for this parking lot, and the independent flow design effectively avoids the trouble of vehicles going back and forth around the ramp. The integration of red and yellow colors makes the space much more recognizable and interesting, while the open architectural design makes parking more convenient.

2. 72DP Colour Parking, Sydney

In the 72DP parking lot designed by Craig and Karl, the dynamic and colorful murals spread out with the walls, like a wireless extension of life, revitalizing the originally dark underground space. The geometric patterns intertwine with each other while the random white space avoids the dullness caused by too much color coverage, creating a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere for the overall space.

3. Museum Parking Building, Miami

The design of the parking façade is based on the interior game Exquiste Corpse, and was created by a collaboration of artists from around the world. It is worth mentioning that these artists were free and independent without knowing the content of each other's design, and eventually these works were fused and stitched together. The integration of multiple cultural elements makes the overall vision of the parking lot more three-dimensional, while bringing a different experience to people.

4. Parking lot P14 at Stuttgart Airport, Germany

The P14 parking building at Stuttgart Airport consists of a six-story double-helix ramp parking garage and a ground floor bus hub. The large volume of thousands of parking spaces effectively alleviates the functional demands of the airport and surrounding urban traffic. From a distance, the perforated metal facade of the steel structure that encloses the building is dynamic and airy. The glass in the parking area of the transportation hub comes in a variety of colors, forming a rhythm on the ground as the light changes, providing identification for passengers while making the waiting time less monotonous.

5. Copenhagen Parking Lot

The three-dimensional parking lot begins to show more possibilities, and the designer's thinking about the current urban scale, history and culture begins to be shown, and the Copenhagen parking lot is one of the classic examples. With its beautiful colors and greenery, the parking garage building has become a landscape that stands out from its surroundings. The roof of the building has been transformed into a vibrant play space, with sports facilities for different age groups placed with the floating texture of the ground, which greatly motivates the public to participate.

6. Roble Del Angel Parking Lot, Spain

The Roble Del Angel parking lot replaces the traditional way finding signage with a derivative pattern of plants, a lively design derived from trees that changes the coolness of the road and echoes the character of its proximity to the campus.

7. Vélène underground parking

The design of the double entrance (the entrance leads to two parking lots that are located above each other) allows for a high utilization of urban space, and the cascading metal exterior transforms the parking lot into a relaxed visual presentation with a soft rhythm of light and shadow that blends well with nature, making it a model for local parking lots that is both functional and visual.

8. Superpark, Austria

The three levels of the super parking garage, located in a large slope, are cleverly embedded in the landscape, with each level having its own entrance and exit due to the unique topography, eliminating the need to create any ramps. Looking at the parking lot from different angles, it is either "semi-hidden" in the landscape or transparent and bright, and the parking lot and the environment are symbiotic in a three-dimensional interweaving and transition between the rational and the sensual.
