Reviews
": ""...Book Explores the Lines Between Captivating Cars and Great Architecture."" ""We enjoyed the first volume and welcome this tour that gives a glimpse of some favorite cars in beautiful stateside settings, some familiar and others largely unknown. Each photograph in the 192-page collection captures a unique relationship, whether a sober monochromatic facade or a mint-green facia mimicked by an automotive chameleon in the carport.""" - Robb Report
"It's a match made in heaven. Architecture and car design are passions many hold dear, and coauthors Thijs Demeulemeester and Bert Voet are fueling their own verve once again with a follow-up to their aptly named best seller - Carchitecture - and a visual journey across America and through the annals of lasting style." - Aspire Magazine
"Carchitecture USA is a photographic romp through midcentury America's obsession with automobiles as accessories to, and for, architecture." - Car & Driver

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
