Wenige Produktdesigns sind so haltbar wie die von Dieter Rams. Nahezu alles was der einflussreichste Designer des 20. Jahrhunderts entworfen hat, gilt heute als Klassiker. Die überarbeitete Neuauflage von Weniger, aber besser zeigt einmal mehr warum Dieter Rams Designverständnis auch in Zukunft nicht an Aktualität verlieren wird.Die Vorstellungen davon, was gutes Design kann, soll und muss, ändern sich stetig mit technischen Möglichkeiten und kulturellen Entwicklungen. Dieter Rams zehn Thesen zum Design befürworten puristisches, beinahe unmerkliches Design und gelten deshalb in Lehre und Praxis als zeitlose Grundüberlegungen: Gutes Design ist innovativ. Gutes Design macht ein Produkt verständlich. Gutes Design ist ästhetisch. Gutes Design macht ein Produkt brauchbar. Gutes Design ist unaufdringlich. Gutes Design ist ehrlich. Gutes Design ist langlebig. Gutes Design ist konsequent bis ins letzte Detail. Gutes Design ist umweltfreundlich. Gutes Design ist so wenig Design wie möglich.Weniger, aber besser hat nicht den Anspruch, eine lückenlose Rams-Werkschau zu sein oder die vollständige Firmengeschichte von Braun zu erzählen. Vielmehr zeigt dieses Buch, welche Ideen, Kriterien und Methoden hinter den großen Produktdesigns von Dieter Rams stehen und wie sich anhand einer sich wandelnden Produktkultur universale Designmaßstäbe ableiten lassen. Aus Dieter Rams Überlegungen zu Ethik und Werten im Design lassen sich klare Strukturen für zukünftiges Gestalten ableiten. Denn eins hat sich über viele Jahre bewiesen: weniger ist einfach besser.

The automobile is, undeniably, the backbone of the last 100 years of American society. The likes of Ford, Plymouth, and Chevrolet, defined a new era for the United States, from transcontinental travel to suburban family transportation. From the mass production of the Model T all the way through to the electric age of the Tesla, the automobile has been a staple in American culture for generations. But these cars were not just practical machines. For many they projected an image of cool, represented a way of life, or was a means to make a living. The great American road trip was born behind a wheel, the Dodge Challenger ripped up the screen in Vanishing Point, and the city of Detroit rose and fell dramatically off the back of the American automobile industry.

It tells the story of the most iconic cars, their makers, and their era. The book also touches upon the art deco elegance of the Cord, post war optimism, the surf and muscle era, and much more, celebrating the most emblematic, visionary, and iconic automobiles in the history of United States manufacturing.
