The 911 Is An Industrial Design Triumph..post pics of others

German's are generally not known for producing things of beauty......that feat is usually left to the Italians......however the curves of the 911 are truly some of the most gorgeous created......they are sculpture.......

I thought it would be fun for Pelicans to post Industrial designs, not limited to cars, that achieved similar lofty heights.......

I'll kick it of with my first choice......

The Eames Lounge Chair, designed in 1956 by Ray and Charles Eames for their good friend, film director, Billy Wilder, so that he could watch his beloved movies in comfort......Charles Eames' goal was to design an all-American chair that was inspired by the look and feel of a well-worn Baseball Mitt........(i love the baseball mitt angle)
