With a project that would make Q, James Bond’s exasperated gadgeteer, proud, Gensler unveiled its design for the Museum of Bond Vehicles + Espionage in Illinois, on July 8. Slated to open in 2012—the 50th anniversary year of the first James Bond movie, “Dr. No”—the museum will house the collection of the Ian Fleming Foundation, including the world’s largest stockpile of vehicles used in the 23 Bond films. Its cache includes the Lotus Submarine Car used in “The Spy Who Loved Me,” the Aston Martin Volante seen in “The Living Daylights,” the BMW R 1200 C Motorcycle used in “Tomorrow Never Dies,” and the Bomabardier Rev 800 MXZ Ski-Doos from “Die Another Day.”
Interview produced by the Victoria and Albert Museum with Ken Adam, designer of some of the best film sets, including those for the James Bond movies during the 60s and 70s, such as Dr. No, Goldfinger, and Thunderball among others, and Stanley Kubrick’s Dr. Strangelove and Barry Lyndon.
