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.

Walter gropius


1910
What i like about this building that i discovered by Walter Gropius is the reaction it provokes when we realise this was designed over a 100 years ago, the use of glass predominatelt to one side and the clean compactness of the structure gives the impression it is a far more recent design than 1910.


The Walter house, designed for his own personal use again appears to be far more recent design than it actually is, my first impression would be a 1970s design however this was finished in 1938.
We can see comparisons to his previous work which he designed before his experiences during the first world war which lead him to say "start again from zero"
