RIP. What a talent he was.

One of my favourite sets in possibly the best looking Bond film:

Even though Moonraker was his last Bond film, he used his experience in set design to design levels for the video game "Goldeneye Rouge Agent" in 2004.

A great loss. His pre-war and wartime experiences make him all the more remarkable, coming over from Germany and flying in the RAF (whilst still holding a German passport). As Bond sets go, the YOLT volcano and submarine pen will never be bettered (or as film sets go, Dr Strangelove's war room)

Adam was one of the key players in the franchise's success. The world's ideas and expectations toward James Bond films would be incredibly different if Adam wasn't a part of the franchise.

Talented man. His contributions to cinema will be missed.

Very sad news, a true creative genius of the kind we will not likely see ever again.

RIP
