Pre-Order My New Book!
I had the pleasure of working on this gloriously researched, produced, and illustrated compendium–The Atlas of Car Design–which goes granular on over 600 of the most interesting automotive designs of the past 140 years. The press that is publishing it, Phaidon, is world-renowned for its amazing graphic sensibilities and high quality materials. And my collaborators, Jason Barlow and Guy Bird, are the best writers in the business when it comes to the subject.
The book won’t be available until the fall, but pre-orders are open now, and are important to the book’s success. I promise you will not regret purchasing this title. (The link above is to the red-covered version. A black version is also available here.)
