Photographer Christopher Herwig first noticed the unusual architecture of Soviet-era bus stops during a 2002 long-distance bike ride from London to St. Petersburg. Challenging himself to take one good photograph every hour, Herwig began to notice surprisingly designed bus stops on otherwise deserted stretches of road. Twelve years later, Herwig had covered more than 18,000 miles in 14 countries of the former Soviet Union, traveling by car, bike, bus and taxi to hunt down and document these bus stops.
The local bus stop proved to be fertile ground for local artistic experimentation in the Soviet period, and was built seemingly without design restrictions or budgetary concerns. The result is an astonishing variety of styles and types across the region, from the strictest Brutalism to exuberant whimsy.
Soviet Bus Stops is the most comprehensive and diverse collection of Soviet bus stop design ever assembled, including examples from Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Ukraine, Moldova, Armenia, Abkhazia, Georgia, Lithuania, Latvia, Belarus and Estonia. Originally published in a quickly sold-out limited edition, Soviet Bus Stops, named one of the best photobooks of 2014 by Martin Parr, is now available in a highly anticipated, expanded smaller-format trade edition.

在博物馆商店翻完，有些车站设计印象很深
评分什么真跟信仰什么主义没有关系，主义最多指导或者限制风格，平庸的人无论什么主义依旧是平庸的。
评分既科幻，又非常有民族特点，很多车站令人印象深刻
评分记住了第一页的玩具公交车
评分印刷分辨率确实一般，标的是新加坡印刷的，亚美尼亚和阿布哈兹的站台最有特色不过亚美尼亚的大都荒废了，阿布哈兹的是非常独特的类似于软体流线的风格，而且都贴了陶瓷碎片花纹，其中立陶宛的状况最好，似乎一直在使用中
