Mercedes-Benz 190SL (1955)
Some years ago, when my mind was being blown away by the fact that you could produce any shape you wanted simply by inputing a few well sorted out mathematical data into a software, I spent an awful lot of time creating curvatures simply because they seemed organic, beautiful. I found myself learning about principal and geodesic curvatures simply to create organic, fluid orchestras of curves and lines.
Nowadays, I find myself struggling with a thirst of vector perfection. No curve is perfect, by any standard and at any given point, and it drives me mad when I’m not able to read the harmony of a set of lines and the flow of the curves of the object I’m creating, wherever and whatever its media may be.
In 1955, a bloke working for Daimler-Benz called Walter Hacker crafted, almost by hand, something that simply defies belief as far as curvatures harmony is concerned. It is no wonder than, that women look especially striking and perfectly blended into the overall dimension that is the 190/300 SL.
Simple hand made math can put a smile in your face.
