The first part traces the emergence of car design from the 1960s until the beginning of the new millennium in order to identify the most significant moments of technical and formal evolution but also techniques and creative processes and underlying each industrial realization.
Special sections are devoted to the activities of the Italian pi signatures and current guidelines where the development of prototypes and concept cars is still a vital chance to confront the technological evolution and most articulate the context of individual and collective mobility.
