From the Red Room in Twin Peaks to Club Silencio in Mulholland Drive; the work of David Lynch contains some of the most remarkable spaces in contemporary culture. Richard Martins compelling study is the first sustained critical assessment of the role architecture and design play in Lynchs films. Martin combines original research at Lynchian locations in Los Angeles; London and Lódz with insights from architects including Adolf Loos; Le Corbusier and Jean Nouvel and urban theorists such as Jane Jacobs and Edward Soja. In analyzing the towns; cities; homes; roads and stages found in Lynchs work; Martin not only reveals their central importance for understanding this controversial and distinctive film-maker;but also suggests how Lynchs films can provide a deeper understanding of the places and spaces in which we live.
