Projects
Style Auto’s mission is to create premier publishing projects, where meticulous attention to detail converges with innovation and in-depth research. Our team brings together experts in architecture, industrial design, and engineering, all driven by a shared passion for automotive culture and heritage.

The Limited Collection includes monographic volumes produced to a defined standard — in format, design, and materials — still printed in limited edition. Its inaugural title is dedicated to the Alfa Romeo 8C. The Bespoke Collection is reserved for even more exclusive projects: each book is conceived as a unique piece, with a high degree of customization and entirely non-standard editorial solutions. The first title explores the Alfa Romeo 33 Coupé. Each volume is crafted for connoisseurs who collect, preserve, and pass on extraordinary automotive stories.

About
One of the most iconic cars of the Sixties. A story never fully told, filled with contradictory information, missing documents, and “urban legends.” The volume investigates the “33 Coupé case” through previously unpublished information, testimonies from the main protagonists, and a substantial collection of documents.
The work is completed by photographic features and specially created illustrations. The large-format volume is printed on high-quality paper using artisanal printing techniques. The binding system, bolted and sealed, allows for future updates while certifying the modification and preserving the originality of the work over time.
The edition consists of 37 numbered Series copies. 33 Coupé owners will be offered the opportunity to receive a personalized copy dedicated to their specific chassis, with the integration of materials related to their individual vehicle.
