Die Liege von Le Corbusier, das Radio von Rams, der Stuhl von Eames – Designer machen Dinge zu Kultobjekten und werden selbst zu Ikonen. Aber wer weiß, welches Coupé von Frua, welche Limousine von Engel, welcher Kombi von Opron designed wurden? Automobildesign galt lange als anonym, die Stylisten standen im Schatten der Designwahrnehmung, obwohl ihre Entwürfe millionenfach auf den Straßen anzutreffen sind. Dieses reich bebilderte Buch zeichnet die Entstehung eines Berufszweigs nach und verfolgt die Entwicklung des Automobildesigns: in einer umfassenden Einführung sowie anhand der Arbeitsbiografien von über 200 ausgewählten Designerinnen und Designern, die zwischen 1900 und 2000 in den USA, Europa und Japan dem Automobil in vielfältigen Produkten eine Form gegeben haben.

The chaise-longue by Le Corbusier, the radio by Rams, the chair by Eames – designers make things into cult objects and become icons themselves. But who knows which coupé was designed by Frua, which limousine by Engel, which station wagon by Opron? For a long time, car design was considered to be anonymous, the designers stood in the shadow of the perception of the design, even though their designs can be found on the roads in millions. This richly illustrated book captures the origin of a profession and maps the development of car design based on a comprehensive introduction and the career biographies of over 200 selected designers who contributed to the design of cars and many different associated products in the USA, Europe, and Japan between 1900 and 2000.
