Soviet Bus Stops

Christopher Herwig documents the surprising and imaginative architecture of Soviet-era bus stops across 14 former Soviet countries. What began as a bicycle journey from London to St. Petersburg became a years-long project capturing these overlooked structures in all their creativity and diversity.

Featuring striking photography and examples ranging from stark Brutalism to colorful, whimsical designs, the book offers a fascinating look at everyday architecture as a form of artistic expression. Both a visual journey and a cultural record, Soviet Bus Stops celebrates the unexpected beauty found along ordinary roads.
