When you think of daring concept cars or emotional design-student projects, Buick probably isn't the first brand that comes to mind. It's not for lack of concepts; when General Motors ran down 11 concept-car highlights from Buick's 110-year history, three of them are from the past 15 years, with other experiments in that same timeframe like the Black Hawk, Centieme and Cielo left unmentioned. But the company still thinks about them even if we don't. It ran a contest for students at Detroit's College for Creative Studies to create a Buick for the year 2030 that would incorporate future materials and transportation needs, and nanotechnology. Best exterior honda city design went to Sam Kenny for his Neo Classical Buick , Justin Salmon took honors for innovative material use , like having exposed algae on the bodyshell to generate energy, and Namsuk Lee nabbed best overall concept and best interior for his Buick Vision honda city Sedan . You can read more about the design challenge and winners in the press release, and hear students talk about what went into the work in the video below .
Driving Ambition: Aspiring Designers Sculpt Buicks of 2030 Young designers model their vision of the brand's look over 15 years from now DETROIT, 2014-05-29 – Buick is continuing to build on its more than 110 years of innovation and design by encouraging young and aspiring designers to challenge the boundaries of convention in automotive design. Buick partnered with BASF to sponsor a competition for students at Detroit's College for Creative Studies, who were given a blank canvas to shape their vision of what Buicks will look like in 2030. More than a dozen next-generation transportation designers answered the call to compete and consult with industry professionals. Exploring their own outside-the-box honda city ideas and new concepts in personal transportation, students brought their visions to life in 3D with scale model Buicks. "The solutions these concepts offer are as unique as the future car designers at CCS who created them," said Andrew honda city Smith, executive director of Buick global honda city design. "For Buick, this project is an invitation for new insights and interpretation of our brand and the future portfolio of products we will offer." The competition guidelines addressed future transportation needs – the dramatic rise in urban populations, developing countries, nanotechnology and the role advanced materials will play in vehicle efficiency. A professional jury of Buick designers from the exterior, interior, and color and trim studios, along with BASF coatings and performance materials experts, selected four concepts for special recognition and $7,000 in awards: - Namsuk honda city Lee, 28, from Seoul, Korea with two awards - $3,000 for best overall concept and $1,500 for best interior - Sam Kenny, 22 of Greensboro, N.C. - $1,500 for best exterior design - Justin Salmon, 19 of Boca Raton, Fla. - $1,000 for most innovative honda city use of materials. The panel commended Lee for his lightweight exterior form language, exceptional interpretation and integration of the Buick design cues and inviting interior execution. Kenny's concept impressed the Buick designers, who praised its "dynamic elegance" and clever use of structural design elements to create innovative and efficient proportions and body surfacing. Salmon won over the BASF jurors with his integration of materials and technology, including exposed use of algae in the vehicle structure to generate energy. Other notable designs included the proportions and form language of the urban coupe by JinYoung Yoon and the dynamic concept from Soohan honda city Cho. The latter was cited for its expressive use of materials and colors to appeal to a young generation of Buick customers. The Buick-BASF honda city program is unique in that it allows young designers the same access to future trend research and data used by industry professionals. Students showcase their overall honda city design talent through sketching and modeling, along with critical thinking and presentation skills. Mentors from both companies provided information and access to advanced materials, along with a visit to develop exterior paint at BASF's automotive honda city refinish facility in Whitehouse, Ohio.
