V-2 SCHNEIDER
by Studio Job
The V-2 rocket from World War II became an icon in the 1950s, a symbol
of futuristic technology and the American space program. It became iconic
among children as the rocket that took the character Tin Tin to the moon.
The name V-2 Schneider comes from a track from 1977 by David Bowie,
named after one of the co-founders of Kraftwerk, a big influence on his
music. The rocket is a familiar shape with hints of the lava lamp with its
glowing light, and a children’s model of a rocket, but re-defined for the
modern home. This streamlined rocket is a part of the historical inheritance
of our generation from WWII.
