Most Creative Design’ award at Salon Prive goes to T 87

Competing in the ‘Beaty of streamling class’, Delwyn Malett won the ‘Most Creative Design’ award at Salon Prive yesterday!

CLASS G: THE BEAUTY OF STREAMLINING

During the 1920s, as the aircraft industry really began to take flight, many forward thinking engineers and designers began to let lessons learnt in the air be an important factor in their automobile designs. It was no more than a happy coincidence that the Art Deco movement married well with the emergence of streamlining and, as a result, ateliers from each side of the Atlantic embraced the concept of combining beauty and performance to produce truly breath-taking cars. This design milestone also overlapped with the building of high speed roads and therefore new road cars, designed against the effects of drag, could for the first time reach really awe-inspiring speeds.
