AVANTI ADS

Spy Vibe joined Google in celebrating industrial esigner Raymond Loewy this week. In addition to working on iconic projects like the Coca-Cola bottle, logos for major corporations, and the interiors of some of NASA's most famous missions, Loewy also designed the high-performance luxury Avanti for Studebaker in the early 1960s- a car owned by 007 author, Ian Fleming. Step through Spy Vibe's portal back in time and get a flavor of the period in these Avanti promos:
