You've likely seen one of several 'dream garages' books or Web sites that single out certain garages mostly by their collection of cars inside, their sheer size and number of vehicles, or celebrity ownership.

To honor garage design itself rather than who or what's inside, Maserati and Architectural Digest magazine have sponsored a "Design Driven" competition that gathered about 125 entries.
