Devaux coupe Art Decó

Despite its appearance, this is no grand tourer from the 1930s but a brand new coupé from the Australian company Devaux Cars. The two-seater Devaux Coupé is the brainchild of Devaux Cars' principal David Clash. A leading Australian industrial designer, much of Clash’s work – from furniture to boats to cars – takes design cues from the 1930s. While for much of Europe it was a decade of hardship and utilitarianism, there was also a love of extravagant design, something which the sweeping lines of the Devaux boldly capture. The style harks back to an era when cars were designed by artists and built by craftsmen; when appearance, refinement and comfort were just as important as performance.
