Carls Cars
Editorial design, illustrations and type design for Carl's Cars, a magazine about people.
A highly acclaimed car magazine about people and lifestyle. The editors approached us to develop a visual profile for issue #27. We had very ambitious plans, with dubious pop-cultural references to criminal conspiracies in car movies like «The Italian Job» and «The Getaway». The process was very long and organic so part of the original plan had to be abandoned, but we developed a completely new grid and a bespoke title font. Engine™ is the result of a study in abstraction of technical drawings, blueprints and cross sections of car engines.
