Bibliography Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
Summary "For a long time, car design was considered to be anonymous, the designer stood in the shadow of the perception of the brand, even though their designs can be found on the roads in millions. "Designing Motion" maps the development of car design in the context of industrial design and captures the social history of a profession--based on a comprehensive introduction and the career biographies of over 200 selected designers who contributed to the design of cars in the USA, Europe, and Japan between 1890 and 1990. The diversity of shapes is evident from many pictures." -- Provided by publisher
