Street Lights of the World is the ultimate visual guide to this often overlooked architectural accessory. Most people never notice the street lights around them and cannot imagine why anyone would. Fortunately for us, someone did notice and has created a surprisingly interesting collection of photographs. The photographs are divided by country and, within the United States, they are further divided by state. Even a casual look at the book will bring an enjoyable discovery of how different shapes, materials and design can bring such different visual effects. Those who spend more time with the book will be amazed at how street lights differ around the world and across time. It highlights the range of variations that exist both in the standards and globes of street lights, and how those variations can enhance the environment. This collection was accumulated over thirty years and by many photographers, but it is presented not only in an understandable order, but in an attractive order. A short history of street lights precedes two hundred pages of illustrations.
