Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This stylishly illustrated book looks back at the future of air travel and is as sleek and elegant as the Concorde aircraft it celebrates now in an enlarged edition. When the first commercial Concorde flights zoomed off the runways in Paris and London in the late 1960s, crossing the Atlantic in just under three hours, they established a new standard for luxury flight. Powered by 38,000 pounds of thrust and easily recognizable with its delta wing and drooping nose, the Concorde jet embodied the pinnacle of aviation technology and industrial design. It quickly became the preferred mode of transatlantic flight for superstars and business moguls alike. Opening with a lively history of the jet and how it changed travel, the book focuses on the look and feel of the Concorde. Photos of the jet's evolving interiors show how the original, starkly designed cabin gave way to luxury seats and interiors designed by the likes of Raymond Loewy, Sir Terence Conran and Andree Putman. Filled with fascinating historical and technical background, and drawn from the author's personal collection of more than one thousand Concorde-related objects, this elegant book offers rarely seen historical photography and firsthand contributions from the people who helped create the Concorde experience from take-off to landing and beyond. AUTHOR: Lawrence Azerrad is a two-time Grammy Award-winning creative director, author and curator. Co-founder of Macroscopic, an innovation agency working with musicians, educational and cultural institutions including The Smithsonian, Warner Music Group, Esperanza Spalding, and Wilco. Azerrad has authored education initiatives on futures literacy and music for The Royal College of Art, California College of the Arts, and Cranbrook Academy Graduate School of Art and has curated exhibits on the topic for the Museum of Design Atlanta. SELLING POINTS: . PERFECT FOR FANS OF THE CONCORDE: a turbojet-powered supersonic passenger jet airliner that was operated until 2003. It had a maximum speed over twice the speed of sound. First flown in 1969, Concorde entered service in 1976 and continued flying for the next 27 years. It is one of only two supersonic transports to have been operated commercially. . Design: This book explores the design and style of Concorde and provides a look into one of the most unique and exclusive travel experiences. The best designers and artists in the world were commissioned to create objects for the Concorde and design its spaces to enhance the in-flight experience for its very particular and very wealthy customers. These designers include the father of industrial design Raymond Loewy, French design icon Andree Putman, British design icon Sir Terence Conran, and Christian Lacroix. . Style: This book captures the essence of the glamorous Concorde experience and the jet-set lifestyle that epitomized it. 200 colour illustrations Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
