After six months of relentless work, a pre-release copy of DVN’s de luxe book, Lighting: The Soul of Car Design, will be presented at the Shanghai workshop.
It’s an artful, elegant, big hardbound book with 224 pages and numerous sparkling photographs showcasing the past, present, and predictions in our field’s technologies and presenting important members of the community.
The book is designed to bring the reader a pleasant, informative reading experience, of course, but also to promote lighting at the highest decision-making levels, and to attract the brightest young career-orientated minds from all over the world.
The book, released in the spirit of 2015 as the International Year of Light, is a crown-jewel addition to our ever-growing DVN library of over 5,000 news articles and 90 reports. The high-definition pictures come from car makers, lighting suppliers, and auto shows including Mondial 2014, NAIAS 2015, and Geneva 2015.
Numerous lighting experts have contributed their knowledge and perspective to round out the book’s comprehensive content, including Daniel Stern, Michael Hamm, Benoist Fleury, Jean-Paul Charret, Jean-Paul Ravier, Ralf Schäfer, and Rainer Neumann. I thank them for their great involvement.
I am proud to invite you to visit the book’s website, www.DVN-BOOK.com .
Sincerely yours
DVN Editor in Chief
