 
After a number of rides, I fall in love with Lada, the very ‘stylish’ Russian car brand that can easily be identified on the roads in Moscow. The old model like ‘sputnik’ is very retro in some sense we see it again now. Basic but practical, the appearance of the car is very fundamental, and so as its facilities and systems inside. The design of the dashboard, the handbrake or the ventilation switches is so unique. The elements of the model are like those parts we see in the toy cars, but they are so real. Without all those modern digital or electronic fancies and appearance for these visible inner parts of the car, the auto simply reveals again the very pragmatic and solid wisdom of our human kind we demonstrated in the industrialised era of art and design in the 60’s and 70’s. The linkage of plastic and metal has been perfectly achieved. It is so adorable.Libellés : lada, moscow, voiture |
