Railway
[Introduction to the Contents]
In other countries, famous designers such as Pininfarina and Jiuzziaro are involved in railway cars, and their signatures are printed on the cars.
However, there is no such thing at all in Japanese cars, and it is difficult to understand what kind of work the designers do.
This book tells about the work of designing railway cars.
Designers are not artists at all, so they do not draw their favorite pictures.
Through a wealth of examples, we introduce what roles the designers play in creating the products of railway cars, and how the products change with the involvement of the designers.
If you read this book, you will understand why the cars you see casually everyday have such a shape, and why they have such a color.
By learning how to read the designs, you will be able to "read" the charms of railway cars that you have never seen before.
