Description
Route 66, a little after dusk. The neon buzzed VACANCY in pink letters, the gravel crunched under the tyres of a cherry-red convertible, and the woman at the front desk slid a brass key across the counter without even looking up from her crossword. Room seven had a chenille bedspread and a humming ice machine just outside. The garage next door held a mechanic’s radio still playing quietly, though the mechanic had gone home hours ago.
Made by Artoria, this blue motel and garage gathers that whole nostalgic world into a single piece, with three hinged openings that lift to show the rooms within. It is a delight for car enthusiasts, road-trip storytellers, model railway fans and anyone who still keeps a map of the old highways in the glovebox. Displayed on a bookcase, it practically begs to be opened door by door.
