Cars have never been just machines. From the tailfins of 1950s America to the Bauhaus curves of German engineering, from Italian coachbuilders to Japanese tuner culture, the automobile has long been a mirror of our aesthetic dreams and cultural desires. Cars & Culture is a sweeping journey through the intersections of automotive design, visual art, fashion, and architecture. It explores how the car has shaped-and been shaped by-the visual languages of the modern world. In over 30 richly narrated chapters, readers are taken behind the curtain of design studios, into the glittering halls of auto shows, and through the sun-drenched streets of Los Angeles and Tokyo where machines become canvases of identity. This is not just a book about cars-it's about creativity on wheels, about the showroom as cathedral and the highway as gallery. Whether you're a petrolhead, designer, or simply a lover of beauty in motion, Cars & Culture offers a new way to see the automobile: as one of the great cultural artefacts of the modern age.
