Concept Car Design - Driving The Dream

Concept Car Design dissects the process of designing these imaginary flights of fancy from idea, through refinement and creative expression, to realization. Jonathan Bell reveals where designers look for inspiration when envisioning the cars of the future, and how they respond to the demands of the market - aesthetic, economic or environmental. His book demonstrates how they use the tools, from sketching and rendering to wireframe and clay modelling, with which they explore a creative vision and present it tangibly, and how that vision transfers to the cars on our roads.
Featuring the work of major manufacturers, independent design consultants and automotive design students around the world, Concept Car Design is perfect for car fanatics, designers in any discipline, and those interested in the journey from idea to reality.
