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
