Synopsis

You may have noticed that most car design books tend to focus on exterior design, as this is what most people think of as Car Design. However, with a growing demand in the industry for interior designers, I hope that this book will encourage (transportation design) students and (car) designers to take a much needed closer look at this equally important aspect of car designI have always enjoyed teaching and being able to incorporate my industry experience to deliver pithier lessons. Through these books, I wanted to expand on this experience to reach a larger audience of not only students, but also those just curious about car design, case studies or perhaps another designer’s point of view.As this is a rather hefty topic, I have split this book into 3 Volumes: Volume 1 has a brief history section looking back at a few of my favorite heritage car interiors and what shaped them, as well as the basics of research, sketching, and rendering. Volume 2 covers five Case Studies from SEAT DESIGN, V-Vehicle Company, Qoros Automotive and a couple of projects from Nissan Design America. This covers the concepts for these interiors and how they started and developed, the concept sketches and the thought process behind them. Volume 3 is geared at students and professionals and runs through the design process.“Lets design a car interior” mimics a University design project, this spans from writing a project brief through research, ideation and execution.
