These next two designers i am going to look at are both car designers Alec Issigonis  and Dante Giacosa who's both designers have been copied for modern day versions of the original designers.
Sir Alec Issigonis will always be remembered for creating the Mini.

 We can see the similarities between the two however their purpose and size are remarkably different , originally a small cheap car the mini is now a fairly large hatchback and expensive compared to other similar sized cars.


The second car designer Dante Giacosa is credited for designing the fiat 500 like the mini his iconic design has been updated and like the mini the purpose has changed from a cheap car for the people to a fashonable car to own.
