It is always inspiring to spend time talking with automotive designers about their work—whether the discussion is centered on whole-car design, what guided interior design, a specific feature like a seat or a cockpit, or a mix. Designers are creative and not so limited by existing technology, parts and carryovers; they are constantly generating pushes and pulls for engineers to expand the frontiers of their technology.
The DS N° 8 is the new top model from DS Automobiles, a Stellantis brand. It has a luxurious and spacious interior. DVN met with DS Design to get insights on the design of the interior, its architecture and the high beltline, seats with integrated headrest and neck warmer, cockpit as nice piece of interior furniture, uniqueness of transition to doors, the bespoke center console, materials, decoration with intriguing clous (nails) on the dash, and so much more.
So have a look at our interview with DS Interior Senior Designer Sylvain Gaudichon. After last week’s Italdesign interview, it will give you a taste of interior design that is being prepared for the Design Roundtable, one of the highlights of the upcoming DVN Interior Workshop, happening in a month, on 8-9 April in Köln.

See you there!
Sincerely yours,
