Italian industrial design powerhouse ItalDesign Giugiaro has released an iPad app that's essentially a picturebook of their history. The simple, cleanly-designed app presents a timeline dating from 1968 to present day, and tapping a year brings up that year's portfolio.

The app is pretty straightforward and unfussy, and my only gripe is that the loading screen must be sat through every time you open the app (though at least they fill the time with a random Ken-Burns-effected slideshow of their work), and die-hard ID historians should note that it's mostly individual pictures with little in the way of description, so determining context will require going elsewhere. But overall it's a great way to visually check out ItalDesign's work, from cars to cameras to kitchens, and you can't beat the price: Free.
