I like to have the widest part of the car being the wheels and not the body. It gives it a more athletic look and, with the sculpture, helps make a car look sexy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think, aesthetically, car design is so interesting - the dashboards, the steering wheels, and the beauty of the mechanics. I don't know how any of it works, I don't want to know, but it's inspirational.
A car designer is really a sculptor.
Cars are the sculptures of our everyday lives.
Design is important, it's an important dimension in the car. It's not the only one.
Cars for me are like a piece of art.
Now, personally, I like a car with some sort of character.
Just looking when I was little at pictures of cars and houses that I wanted - it gives you a certain motivation, it gives you a goal.
The size thing is not some gimmick or attention-getting trick but a genuine undercurrent of the work. Frank Gehry for instance likes to imagine his buildings as sculptures. I like to imagine my sculptures as architectural.
Sculpture occupies real space like we do... you walk around it and relate to it almost as another person or another object.
I like architectural shapes. You can't put any shape on any body, except on the runway. In reality, it has to look and feel flattering.
